an eventful weekend

drinking with the old boss and two coworkers on Friday, then BSG, and 2 hours of CNN... and started to worry about friend's family in Lake Charles. (He emailed me yesterday, they evacuated last-minute, and he hasnt heard since. He also said he's got family all over the region that got hit. So, as I would be, he's a little worried.) My thoughts are still with them.

All the late-night CNN watching led to a late morning Saturday, then 2 more hours of CNN, and some house-cleaning, and re-watching BSG 2 times, and watching Smallville's season finale. Then Teen Titans (one of the best), and drinks and cookies at A&K's house to watch Justice League and talk both comics and action figures (and Transformers, too) till 12:30 or so...

which led to a late morning Sunday, where I watched Titans and Justice League AGAIN, and BSG again, and the end of Smallville again, and CNN, and then started working on housework again. delivered the Pickles' tent, and a plant (and Kelmeister's brother's $20), then another plant to A&K's, and the chairs and a plant to Mr. & Mrs. T, where I not only got to admire their new couch, new HDTV, and new art, but also walked away with 2 deco prints (for free! THANKS JEN!) While out on the West side, ran to Target for a few things, and then also to the Target on the way back from the T's. Then, I came home, unloaded the truck, and went back out in the rain for groceries to restock Nala's supplies of fruit, veggies, and other assorted low-cal edibles.

I have to say, the most fun I had all weekend was probably planning the week's meals and shopping for decent produce. Well, that is, until Nala got home. And talked. And talked. And talked. He really did have a good time. I hope Evebird did too. He showed me his booty (no, the plastic kind) and talked up the great deals he got. It was like a kid on the first school-day after Christmas -- you know... the one where you tell everybody about your kick-ass presents.

Man, I missed him... and more than ever, I realized how much I do love that man.
