darren_strangerWeekend roundup so far:
Friday night: Hoped to go see Sforzando at the Cornish Arms. Didn't happen. Might as well write off anything that's on a Friday, as it ain't likely to happen. Sat in and watched Life of Brian instead.
Saturday: Woke up to hear someone talking on the front doorstep about doing renovations to this house. Looks like we'll be hitting the road again before the year's out. Ah well, forewarned is forearmed, so we can get ourselves prepared (the 'things happen for a reason' school of thought is useful sometimes). Back to taekwondo training in the afternoon. Enjoyed getting good and sweaty, but still frustrated with things i suck at. Have some plans to decrease suckage in a couple of areas. Getting a stonger feeling i'm going to be pushed into this next grading before i feel anything like ready, but i guess i need the pressure or i never will be. At the moment though, my skills are so poor i'd almost be embarrassed to *pass* that grading - half the time i feel like i should be unpicking a couple of stripes, not adding one. I'm working on it though, which is the whole point really (and i guess i have to entertain the thought that my teachers may actually know exactly what they're doing - strange an idea as that may seem).
Saturday night: Hoped to go see Mr Coffee and Mach Pelican at the Espy. Didn't happen. Sat in and watched Seed of Chucky instead. Was pleasantly surprised with that - not only a slasher film that doesn't suck, but a franchise that is actually getting better with each sequel. I've also discovered i do do celebrity crushes. X)~
Sunday: Woke up thinking i could hear someone on the doorstep, but it was just the wind blowing the newspaper i've been meaning to pick up all week. Crawled out of bed with a hangover from grumpy-drinking last night, and finally managed to catch up on livejournal posts. More coffee is the next order of the day, then some washing. Elaine's still enjoying a sleep in. Wish i was too, but once i was awake i was awake. Dreaming about scorpions again too. Most of the time i keep dreaming that Elaine has brought them to bed and that if i roll over i'm going squish one (probably because i dropped the fake rock on one when we first got them and thought i'd squished her). This morning i dreamed that one of the cats had somehow gotten inside the scorpy tank and was eating one. Somehow it escaped unharmed once i made the cat spit it out. Bad kitty.
Sunday night: Hope to make it to merry_thoughts' '80s non-club thingy for a pleasant sit and chat. Not speculating on chances of success.
