Another down weekend! Maybe I’m saving my strength for something, although I’m not entirely sure what. I’ll know it when it gets here, I guess. Friday night was our only evening of any note. We passed on our regularly scheduled happy hour gathering in Shingle Springs and had some friends up for dinner. It didn’t go “exactly” as planned, but then what does. We put a meatloaf on the smoker for dinner, which I was happy with. I’ve tried it once before, with less than exciting results. It was so boring, actually, that I almost came up with a different menu. Luckily this one came out a lot better though, I’m even game to try it again soon. The rest of the evening was spent playing pool and watching movies. There was supposed to be a bonfire worked in there too, but… There wasn’t.

Saturday and Sunday came and went with a whole lot of nothing. A few less-than-exciting basketball games, then worked Saturday night, and that’s about the whole of it. Donette went to a friend’s house Sunday night for her annual Oscars party. Sounded like a real hoot, but I wasn’t able to score an invite, so I stayed home with the pups. We had a fine time of it, they’re about as hard to entertain as myself. We watched “The Power” and “Candyman” after the basketball games were over. The first was rather silly and boring, but Candyman was pretty darn scary. I think Nacho might have had nightmares.
