The weekend was great. Friday night did consisted of going to Walmart & Blockbuster, but it was good. We got home Friday and started watching Napolean Dynamite, then started falling asleep so I didn't get to finish it. Saturday night Nick and I went and played pool at Sidepockets. I won a few games, but lost more than I won. It was relaxing for both...

yeah we are lame but I did kick your ass in pool 
I'm getting ready to go out for the night. What? I'm not sure yet, I guess we'll figuire it out when we leave. Probably the same as every other weekend, movies, Blockbuster, Target, & Wal-Mart. 
It's not much but it's entertaining.

I've often meditated on the pointlessness of viewing, objectivly, one's nightly and weekend routines and judging them as,
"lame" or "not much" or "pathetic."
By what criteria are we measuring these things and who sets these bullshit standards?
Granted, I do find myself rather depressed when I visit friends in rural areas and their pass times include driving around Pittsfield, Illinois in a circle in their cars, looking for farm animals to torture.
However, when my friends and I go out on weekends we usually go to the movies, to a bar, out to eat some place we've never been before.
Sometimes we shake it up with a blues/jazz club, a comedy show (at the Funnybone or Comedy Forum), or a concert.
But usually it is the same old same old.
Who's to say that an evening of Blockbuster rentals "isn't much?"
You're entertained.
If that is what makes you content, so be it.
My standards for a typically productiive evening include reading, throwing in a movie (usually a horror movie), writing (fiction, NOT on the Internet, though sometimes I splurge, until I can't look at my computer anymore), listening to music, talking on the phone with out-of-state friends and usually eating dinner in...
The point is: I've always felt that whatever you consider a productive and lively evening is, by all means, what makes you happy and therefore should be subjected to other people's high falutin, pretentious standards.
Your Friday night sounds awesome to me!!!!!!!
(except for the Wal-Mart, thing. I hate them for what they do to small businesses in small towns... other than that, tho, it's all good!).
