What if you Threw a Party and No One Came or Harold and Kumar
Playing catch up here...
The time without my parents was filled with playing Vice City (and beating it!), taking care of the house, getting a bit of a tan, watching Spider-man (60's) and generally doing dick all.
I did so much prep for the party, baking 2 cakes (confetti angel food with pudding icing and blueberries), making fruit dip, setting up covers for couches , and making extra room in the house for a bunch of people. I even set up the PC downstairs with a 940 song 80's mix playing... Then only 3 people came... Ryan, Andrew, and Brad. Everyone else no showed.... Some had excuses (moving, not in town) others did not (fell asleep). I would have been pissed, but it ended up being alright in the end. We played video games and drank. I recommend that you never do a shot of Fire Rum because it will make you gag and feel ill...
Went to Pharaoh's on Saturday (which sucked) and then Moxies after. Tina was not feeling good and Ryan wasn't helping, so I took it upon myself to cheer her up with disgusting stories of people we know... It seemed to work. I had some dish that they told me was the spiciest there, but ended up not being hot at all... until I ate a chili whole... YOWZA! That fried my tongue for a good while... Ice Cubes and water were no use, I had to wait for it to wear off.
Last night I went to Kum Soon Garden (unfortunate name) with my parents for their anniversary and had some Chinese food. The place had 3 sizes of soups and we figured that a small was a one person size... Boy were we wrong! It was easily enough for 2 or 3, but we had ordered it as an appetizer for our meal... We couldn't just not eat it all, so we all finished our portions and we not able to eat as much of the actual food as normal. Well... I tried and only succeeded in gorging myself silly...
Checked out "Harold and Kumar go to White Castle" last night and was SUPREMELY disappointed... After reading positive reviews in the paper AND from Roger Ebery, I had high hopes.... they were dashed... While I didn't HATE the movie, it was not nearly as funny as anticipated... In fact "Dude, Where's My Car" was way better. I had issues with the way that Harold and Kumar acted. They were supposed to be stoned but did not act any different than usual. Having both been stoned and been around stoned people, I can tell you that they act very different. More goofy, hazey eyed, and slow. These two guys were no different. I did laugh a few times, but overall, not that much... I would classify it as a waste of money UNLESS you were also stoned... but I'm not going there again.
Checked out Gimli beach with Rob today and saw the ladies in their bikinis. Also ran into Melissa and saw her in her bikini. Overall it was a positive day!
