On Day Four

I hope your weekend found you well. Mine found me partaking in some adult beverages. Friday night I went to a pal's wedding (Kurt the Squirt - way to go!) and spent some time with some homies tearing up the dance floor, which if you've ever seen me dance, you know it's not pretty.


Last night another group of friends and I got together and danced around the idea of getting a writing club started. What we really did was drink wine and eat cheese around my coffee table, and then walked down the street to the bar. Needless to say, we didn't get much done.

Today I'll be discussing something I'm looking forward to. I'll warn you in advance, I'm going to geek out on you guys a little bit right now, so you if you stop reading, I'll understand. This is something I'm excited about in the immediate future, that is, within the next two weeks. I'll admit, I'm fond of some video games, particularly, the Resident Evil series, I mean, it's where my zombie affections hail from. Resident Evil 5 came out in 2009 and while I was sort of disappointed at first, I really began to like it after playing it for a while. Ever since completing it, I was already looking forward to the next game. The wait is almost over, March 20 Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City will be hitting the shelves.

This one appears to be one of the spin offs as it seems you'll be playing as members of Umbrella Corp., seeking out zombies, civilians and STARS members alike, but judging by the trailers I've checked out, it seems like it will be a pretty legit game nevertheless.

In other exciting news (for me) I learned that Resident Evil 6 will also be released toward the end of the year, which looks (pardon my teenager slang) supremely awesome.

So there you have it, this is what I'm looking forward to, thus far. A bit geeky, but hey, I love zombies.

On Day Three

It was tough to choose just one photo of my friends and I, and I chose this one, because there is not one single photo of me and all the people I consider friends, so I chose this one because it’s one of my favorites.

This is my wedding day, September 13, 2008. This fine gentleman is not my husband, though judging by the sensual cheek kissing, he ought to be right? This here is my best friend, “Mike.” When most women get married, they get all fussy over the details, and gushy about their dress, flowers, decorations, themes, and so on. Not me, I couldn’t give less than a shit about all of that stuff. Don’t get me wrong, I had a general idea of what I wanted to go on, but no plan of how to make it come together. Thanks to that guy, I had a pretty friggen’ sweet wedding. I mean… we did the Time Warp, okay?

Yes, the day was mostly a disaster. It poured rain the ENTIRE day, I was forty-five minutes late to the ceremony, for various reasons which I won’t discuss, I forgot the music, my garter, and so on. But the important thing is that everyone had a blast.

What’s one of your favorite times spent with friends?
