Sunday 2/26, B and I woke up and for once he was the one who woke up feeling riled up and we discussed our “Free 5” of both genders. On my guy list: Jake Gyllenhaal, Joaquin Phoenix, Jude Law, Brad Pitt and Luke Wilson (who may get replaced, I’m not sure yet) and on my girl list: Cate Blanchett, Kate Winslet, Natalie Portman, Scarlett Johanson and Angelina Jolie. On B’s girl list: Tyra Banks (huh?), Uma Thurman, Sienna Miller, Zooey Deschanel and that girl from Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. On his boy list: Brad Pitt, Jude Law, Joaquin Phoenix, George Clooney and Christian Bale. We got up, ate breakfast and headed on our way to my house to organize and clean out the garage. We did quite a bit and B cut a bunch of that wood and shit down and dumped it in the dumpster. It was pretty great, but I still need to go to Lowe’s and get more storage bins to put the rest of that shit in. We tried to go get lunch and ended up settling on a Mexican place by Dania then B showed me where he works, then we went to Dania and were told that they didn’t have the cd shelves in stock and I was pissed, so we went back to my house and watched more SatC before leaving around 6:00 to go to Mom’s for dinner and B went home. Dinner was fine, we had a conversation about me moving and B’s decisions with law school, though it wasn’t very helpful. I did some grocery shopping before heading home and settling in for the evening.
Saturday 2/25, I got up around 8:30 and got ready for the day. I hit Costco first and bought those pots and pans I had been eyeing earlier in the week. They were very heavy. Then I went to Lowe’s to return that stupid doorbell, so I got a better one, some plastic for when B and I organize the garage and some new wood utensils for my new pans so they don’t get scratched up. Then I drove over to the bank to deposit a check before returning home. Once there I met Alex and installed the whole doorbell by myself, though the button is a little shaky on account of the stupid screw stripping out before I could screw it in tightly. Oh well, at least it worked (until B came over the next day, then it didn’t work so well…damn!) and I felt very proud of myself. I hung out in my bedroom for a little while until it was time to go to Kristel’s. We went over to Dania to look at the couch I’m in love with and I also ended up falling in love with some barstools and almost bought some cd towers, but concluded that they might not fit in my car and resolved to return with B the next day so he could help me. While at Dania, Kristel and I managed to find some massage chairs that have the bonus feature of calf clampers that basically feel like Ricky Martin’s pelvis really working it against each one of your calves. It was really great. We then decided to go over to Costco Home, where I proceeded to find a dining room table to fall in love with (handmade in India, a steal at only $2,500) and managed to not take it home despite the encouragement from Kristel. We both managed to make it out of there without spending any money, but the same cannot be said about the next stop we made: Starbucks. When we walked in, this girl wearing a similar jacket to mine, looked at me painfully, then turned to her mother who could be heard saying “Why are you looking at me like that?”. This girl obviously did not appreciate the fact that our coats looked alike. Oh well, we got our stuff and sat and chatted for a long time. I was pretty impressed by the number of semi-cute guys coming in and out of there, usually you don’t get that much on the Eastside. We packed up and I took Kristel home, then went home myself and showered and started getting ready to go over to Jason and Beth’s for dinner and a little board game action. I checked myspace though and got a message saying we would have to reschedule, so I got ready anyway and headed over to B’s house. We went out to dinner at Kiku and watched Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy with the roommates before going out to the Zoo to meet Luke, Seth, Rick, Jenny and Tong. Chrystol and I had a pretty good time in our corner and overall the conversation was pretty good, but we all got tired and ended up leaving around 11:30. Went to bed after that.
Friday 2/24, B came over around 8:00 and we watched some SatC before going to bed at like 10:00. It was quite the early evening. Before he got there I think I just showered and did shit in my room.
Thursday 2/23, Since I would like to continue my streak of not going to Neighbours, I didn’t go on Thurdsay. Instead, B came over after work and we sat downstairs and made veggie lasagna and watched Velvet Goldmine. It was actually a fairly fun evening, though quite simple.
Wednesday 2/22, It’s been a while since I’ve updated this, so I kind of don’t remember what I did last Wednesday. I probably just sat at home, ate leftover rice and tortillas, then watched tv until I went to bed. Thrilling I know.
