friday - it was honey bunny's turn for her birthday sleepover. S2 dropped her off for me, at my job, and we proceeded to this really cool shop down the street. they have super bouncy balls and all kinds of toys and gadgets. it's a pretty neat store. she picked out a $15 digital camera and some glasses that say "happy birthday" when you look at any light. i got a few bouncy balls for myself.
headed home after that. after about an hour of sitting in traffic just to get home (i think someone tried to hold up a liquor store so they had the street down to one lane), i started to show her how to use her digi-cam. she went crazy taking pictures and deleting them on accident. she hasn't quite remembered all the modes just yet.
my daddy also made an appearance this weekend. he had his high school reunion the next day so made a pit stop on his way through. we took him to the "hole in the wall" down the street because that's where honey bunny wanted to go for her bday sleepover dinner. i can't believe that girl wolfed down a whole "big person" cheeseburger and fries. we took the leftovers of the frozen greaseball they call appetizers, to the boys. they were lovin' honey bunny after that!!
i like how when we got honey bunny bathed and in pj's, i told her to go say goodnite to grandpa and HM. she said, "oh no, i'm not going to bed yet". to which i replied, "uh...yeah ya are". it was already 10:00p and we had to get up early for shaggy's opening day for t-ball. oh...then she was upset because she couldn't watch tv while falling asleep. i don't even let HM do that! it didn't matter... she was fast asleep about 10 minutes later.
a couple of beers and too many crown & cokes later, i went to bed. HM and my daddy stayed up 'til about 3 in the morning. i'm glad they had a chance to shoot the shit. there haven't been too many opportunities to do that since they met.
saturday morning - shaggy's t-ball opening day! YAY! he was too cute in his little uniform... and when he was rounding the bases. you could tell he was completely out of breath when he made it back in. we gotta get that boy in shape.
saturday nite - we had a whole big thing planned. we were supposed to go see the spazmatics, but it didn't quite pan out that way. HM got really sick with sinuses and felt miserable. my buddy, jim, had to back out because of an illness in the family. roy didn't want to come if HM wasn't going and woz... she just had a busy week and didn't feel like it.
so, HM and i stayed in and watched a couple of flicks: the family stone and the ringer. i liked both of them. i liked the family dynamics in the family stone. that's how i would like to picture my family being. not the family i have now, but my own family when i have it one day. i want to be this great mom that the kids can't wait to come home to see and i want the kids to all get along and give each other shit... in a loving way, of course. the ringer, i thot was funny. S1 and booger didn't care for it. i liked it. i liked the fact that they called him out for being "a mother faker" and still helped him beat the other guy.
sunday - we missed honey bunny's birthday swimming party. HM was still sick and it was just too damn hot for me to be outside. we went to her bday dinner last sunday and she had her sleepover on friday. i'd say i was covered in the bday dept and didn't need to shave my legs for another one.
sunday nite - NITE OF ALL THAT IS CHICAGO!!! S1 and i went to see the chicago/huey lewis and the news show. CHICAGO did not disappoint. too bad i can't say the same for huey. S1 was completely disappointed that huey didn't sing do you believe in love or hip to be square. he did, however, play all the lame songs from the back to the future movies. AND did some lame ass doo-wop thing with all the old guys in his group.
CHICAGO rocked! okay, i know they're old as dirt but DAMN! S1 and i looked like complete dorks singing every single song (except for the 2 they played from their new album) and dancing in our chairs. i think we knew more songs than the old people sitting behind us which, by they way, i overheard one of them saying, "my first 8-track was Chicago 5". i got a kick out of that for some reason. maybe it's because they're on Chicago 30 now or maybe it's that there was a good 30 year difference between us but i knew exactly what he was talking about! 8-tracks and chicago.
i was pretty happy that they played my favorites, saturday in the park and beginnings. they did S1's favorite, just you and me, but they kinda screwed it up with added flute playing...??? it was an awesome concert! i can't wait 'til we go see journey next month! if people thot we were dorks at last nite's show... you ain't seen dork yet!
until next time, i'm sweet t and you're not.
