Nov. 26th, 2005 09:18 amThursday wasn't nearly as vile as it might have been, food was plentiful, if boring, kids were reasonably well behaved (the youngest ended up being a bit ofa git, but at least she was quiet about it. No, I'm not moving my legs for you AGAIN, as you have gone back and forth every 26 seconds for the past 10 minutes, and if you want me to move you can either go UNDER the chair (like you have done for the past 7 minutes) or SPEAK ON THE OUTSIDE "excuse me" or even just "please". But staring at me and trying to force me telepathically isn't going to work, kiddo. I'm sure that my ratings went down with The Family, but whatever. The horrifying part was when one of hubby's cousins, the one with the evil 12 year old, said "4-year-olds aren't manipulative!"
MIL agreed with me that time.
Anyway.
Friday was sleeping, cleaning, and more cleaning. Decided that it was about damn time that we DO something, and so took hubby on a date - went for an overpriced and vaguely disappointing meal at Lone Star (how can steak have NO TASTE???), but we were OUT OF THE APARTMENT and the food was hot and the restaurant pretty empty, and it was quite pleasant except for the brown salad that I sent back, and the scary manager who didn't seem to understand the concept of personal space. Really, I'm fine, the salad was brown, and everything is ok, really, promise, no worries.
Back in the car to slam the door on the seat belt and break off the little stud that keeps the belt from retracting too far LOL *bows to applause* and off to catch the 10:25pm GoF showing, with enough time for lattes and a few more cigarettes. Very empty theatre (maybe 30 people total), and a complete moron behind us who actually said "ARE THOSE THE SAME ACTORS? THEY DON'T LOOK LIKE THE SAME ACTORS. DID THEY GET DIFFERENT ACTORS? I DON'T CARE, THEY DON'T LOOK LIKE THE ACTORS IN THE OTHER MOVIES"
Companions shushed Teh Stupid, fortunately.
Home to kitties and a sofa, and now I'm up too early on a Saturday waiting for Selena and Erin to arrive. Guess it's time to clean the kitchen while I wait :)
