Rearranged

I typed in the word weekend in Google images and this was the first two pictures. So... say hello to Carmen Electra and her wonderfully huge breasts.

I had a nice weekend.

Friday, SJ came over to do his laundry. And we played a little bit of Wii. I LOVE my Wii. It's so much fun. Of course, whenever Kevin sees me playing Zelda he tells me I look like a spaz, throwing my arms around. It's probably true, but who cares. It's a blast!

Saturday night, Joe, Matt and I went to Burger Betty's to eat dinner. The place is notorious for its bad and slow service and mediocre food. But Buddy said that it's under new management and they've actually hired an executive chef.

So, we go there and receive really bad service. I never got my appetizer that I ordered and the waiter kept forgetting to bring us drinks or refill them.

The food was decent. It wasn't amazing but it wasn't bad.

Joe's friends Jimmi and Austin (his real name is Kevin but Joe mumbles so Matt and I understood it as Austin), joined us for drinks but missed out on the food. The five of us were sitting around, waiting for our check (apparently at Burger Betty's the check is only give after a minimum wait time of 30 minutes after your plates are cleared).

Before we knew it, some really drunk man scooched me over and sat down on my chair with me. He said he was one of the new owners and was telling us all about the horrors of upgrading everything. He was TRASHED. He kept rubbing Matt's leg and was sitting too close for comfort for me (obviously, since we were sharing a seat).

But that wasn't the most interesting part. Jimmy and Kevin were the most negative couple I've ever met. They fought the entire time. And they put everything and everyone down - including themselves.

Actually, that last paragraph was a complete lie. They were really nice but there's this inside joke that would take too long to explain.

After the drunk owner let us go, we paid out check we headed over to Roscoes. We played some darts and pool. Jimmi and I were teammates and beat Matt and Joe, two games to one. Jimmi is very funny and his boyfriend, Austin - I mean Kevin - is very sweet. I think we talked Kevin into showing up to practice on Tuesday!

Sunday Joe and I had dinner at John and Phill's with some other folks and then watched The Queen. Helen Mirren has been getting rave reviews for her portrayal. She was quite good but the movie was just average. I've seen Lifetime Movies that held my attention longer.

At the beginning of the movie there was a quotation from Shakespeare's Henry IV "Uneasy Lies the Head That Wears the Crown." I knew it was similar to a lyric from a song but I couldn't figure it out. I had to Google it later that night and found out it was from one of my favorite Limp Bizkit songs.

So HAPPY TUNESDAY!!

Here's the video for it. I used to love Limp Bizkit and Fred Durst. Too bad their 15 minutes of fame are over. I love the line - I'd love to be the one to disappoint you when I don't fall down.

Funny Friday

I saw this on another blogger's site and laughed my ass off. It's 5 minutes of hilarity.

Does This Man Look 12?

This week in Phoenix there have been two news stories. No, it's not the war in Iraq. Or, the president's 70% disapproval rating.

The first bit of big news reported for days was the fact that it snowed in Phoenix. That's pretty damned big news. It doesn't happen often.

The other story in Phoenix is over this man - Neil Havens Rodreick II. He conned some creepy old men in Chino Valley. The creepy old men allowed him to move in with them because he said he was a 12 year old. Oh, and they all had sex.

To continue his charade, the guy shaved all his body hair and wore makeup. Now the creepy old men must have the worst eye sight in the world, because I don't care how much makeup you put on this guy - he looks older than a 12 year old. Look at the bags under his eyes! And the lines around his mouth!

Not only did he fool the creepy old men. He fooled kids, parents and teachers at Imagine Charter Elementary School..... for FOUR MONTHS!

Everyone is just outraged because the guy is a convicted sex offender. Thankfully, there have been no reports that Rodreick did anything bad to the students he went to school with.

I'm not outraged. I think it's hysterical that some dirty old men got conned by another dirty old man. I mean, these guys thought they were messing around with some kid. But they weren't. He was someone almost as old as me! Maybe my sensitivity levels are all wrong, but I find the situation ironically funny.
