We've had a very busy weekend - family dinner Friday night, theme park yesterday, dinner out last night, and today our annual "Exhibition", like a country fair type thing I guess. They go home tonight and I'll probably be getting more sleep once I get back to work than I have this weekend!

Only the new foster kids met them for the first time - my sister had already met her own family!

Originally Posted By avimagine Went a bit less boring then I thought, got a phone call someone with an early Tee time needed a partner , spent most of the day with family, then got another phone call and had dinner with some friends. Feels good to have a social life (well a small one) again. Now vegging watching sci-fi

Originally Posted By Labuda Well, the weekend is nearly halfway over, BUT... last night Matt & I went to the opening night of a new play written by a friend of mine... if you're my feriend on FB, you saw me post a rave (albeit brief) review in my status this morning. And, if a theatre near you stages House of Several Stories (that was John's first play and won quite a few award snad is being published by Samuel French now, even!), I recommend you see it. Oh, and to JiminMerced - check into getting rights for it there! I may be able to hook you up with a minor discount. So, late night Friday we watched the latest episode of MTV's The Challenge since he loves it, and introduced me to it recently. VERY entertaining. Today was running errands and a bit of grocery shopping, then off to the movies (Attack the Block) with my friend Mike. Now the boys are on the couch playing some uber gory Wii game (Mad World, I think it's called - it's black & white and stars the vocal talents of Greg Proops, among others) while I catch up on LP. Tomorrow will mostly be a lazy day, but I expect that tomorrow evening I may head out to play poker.
