OK let’s try this again;\u00a0 I think maybe if I can get through the cold today, warmer weather might be upon us.\u00a0 It was light out today when I got to work too, which is an encouraging sign.\u00a0 Granted, it looks like rain for the next week or so, but I’ll take that over whatever snow-ice-hail crap that was last week.<\/p>\n
After a slow start, the weekend shaped up nicely.\u00a0 Can’t say I accomplished a great deal, but I had fun, which is more important in the grand scheme.\u00a0 Friday I headed down to the Brooksider and met up with Martin & Brice.\u00a0 We sat around discussing our strategy for the upcoming BBQ season for several hours.\u00a0 If we came up with anything revolutionary I’ve long since forgotten what it was.<\/p>\n
Saturday I met up with the same rough crowd as Friday, and we set out on a tour of the Waldo area.\u00a0 Kind of crummy weather again, so it was the best idea we could come up with.\u00a0 We started off the afternoon at the Corner, where we found out there was some crazy Pub Crawl going on.\u00a0 Yep, we’d inadvertently run into the annual “Barstool Open,” which is some fundraiser where a big group of rowdies go around playing miniature golf and causing a general disturbance in the balance of things.\u00a0 Wow, they were loud.\u00a0 We hung out and watched them until the crowd got unbearably large, then moved up the street to Patrick’s.\u00a0 I’d actually never been there, and it was a nice place.\u00a0 They had some dart boards for a little diversion, but before we could play a game the same crowd from the last place started filtering in.\u00a0 So, driven out again, we headed further north still, and landed at Finn’s.\u00a0 (I don’t think it’s named that any more, but I still call it that.)\u00a0 We found refuge from the crawlers at that place, they weren’t on the list for whatever reason.\u00a0 Plus, they have a pool table so that gave us something to do other than talk about BBQ and…\u00a0 BBQ.\u00a0 After countless horribly frustrating games of billiards, we wrapped up the evening over at Kennedy’s.\u00a0 While I was out touring the southlands, Donette was down at the Main Street AMC with a bunch of girls watching movies.\u00a0 They were showing all the Oscar-nominated shows back-to-back over a 24 hour period for one ticket price.\u00a0 Not something that would interest me, but a pretty cool idea.<\/p>\n
Sunday I turned it down quite a bit.\u00a0 Frankly two days in a row with the Martin\/Brice combo had taken a toll on me, I needed a day on the couch.\u00a0 After going downtown to pick up the girls from their movie extravaganza, I indeed retired to the futon for an endless stretch of Word Twist games.\u00a0 I played so many rounds that I still can’t read anything without my eyes starting to scramble up all the letters into different words.\u00a0 Meanwhile, Donette spent the day sleeping off her movie-fest, then got up at the crack of 5:00 and headed out to an Oscar’s party.\u00a0 I finally gave up on the Word Twist about the same time, and watched a few movies myself.\u00a0 I popped in Psych:9<\/a> first, which I found remarkably entertaining despite making no sense at all.\u00a0 After that I found some back-to-back Dirty Harry’s playing;\u00a0 Always a safe bet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" OK let’s try this again;\u00a0 I think maybe if I can get through the cold today, warmer weather might be upon us.\u00a0 It was light out today when I got to work too, which is an encouraging sign.\u00a0 Granted, it looks like rain for the next week or so, but I’ll take that over whatever […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-957","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-current-events"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pkenagy.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/957","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pkenagy.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pkenagy.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pkenagy.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pkenagy.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=957"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.pkenagy.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/957\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pkenagy.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=957"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pkenagy.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=957"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pkenagy.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=957"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
