Ok, so maybe NOT lazy & useless

In spite of not having a ton of plans this weekend I managed to pack in the hours:

2 movies
Talladega Nights (The ballad of Ricky Bobby) my review.... eh what ever. The outakes at the end may have been the funniest part of the movie
The other movie I can't name because I"m supposed to be "saving it" for someone. I love the idea of saving movies to see with people - but my committment grows weak after 4 weeks. This isn't a complaint its a confession on my part that while I want to see the show with you, if there's no target date in sight I'll probably see it without you. If the movie is good, I'll pretend I didn't and see it again with you when it finally comes up, but if the movie blows (and this one didn't) I will tell you flat out. So, had I been "saving" the Matrix 3 and SYP& MWR's schedules hadn't worked out and I saw it on my own, I would have faked my own death to not have to see it again. Tradition be damned.

Attended a bbq - and instead of cooking like I had planned I swung by the Colnels and picked up a 16 piece bucket. The other guests teased me about my cooking skills - but at the end of the night while they were packing up cole slaw to take home, I had no left overs. In fact at one point I saw a small child in the chicken bucket licking the crumbs. So HA!

I made it to church in the first time in like 2 months. Pastor K's little speach (sermon... whatever) was about... S.E.X. seriously. He was all... you know they say that sex is dirty, and it's a sin... and you should save it for someone special.... wait, that seems wrong. Ha! He talked about it being everywhere in our lives and that its easy to take the connection to our partner of out if it, and that we need to put it back. All in all it was a pretty nice message -- but since I am unmarried I guess it doesn't apply to me. Some day, when I get married and my husband kisses me for the first time I suppose it will all be clear. tee hee

THis weekend I also discovered that coupons and gift certificates are designed to make you spend money! I had a $20 nordstrom coupon and spent almost $200. The same thing happened at another store. Today, SadRico and I drove up to Tulalip to do the outlet mall and I was worried that the Restoration Hardware GC's would cause me to buy a $4000 sofa or something. Alas, I held it together pretty well up there.

We did pop over to the casino for buffet. (seriously... yuck) I talked him into dropping $5.00 into the penny machines. While I lost my money in less than a minute (Wow, I suck) SadRico won a jackpot and cleared over $32.25. Pretty impressive.

The house is (as) clean (as it's going to be) for the book club ladies tomorrow. Dinner fixens are in the fridge and wine is chilling. All is well and so off I go to roll around in my new clothes.
