The word for the weekend was....letdown. Just about everything I really wanted to do got fucked up in some way or another.
It started out with Friday night eating Sushi at my favorite place with my family, wife, and best bud. It was awesome, but about an hour or two later, Becka was dying, some of the sashimi she had had was evidently bad. So there went our drinking/movie plans. She went to my garndparents house and crashed, My friend and I ended up going over to his house and trying to replan but evidently there are no longer midnight movies. Ended up watching a crazy chinese horror film about a woman who performs abortions and then uses the fetus as filling for dumplings which make older women look younger. Crazy shit.
The next day we were supposed to go over to her parents for a couple of hours, but it ended up being about 5. While there I found out that the person I was supposed to hang out with evidently couldn't and wanted to try for Sunday instead. So I call up my bud and see if we can get together a D&D group, but the other guy who we play with had a migraine and wasn't awake. Didn't end up hearing from him until 7:30, and at that point it was too late since it takes an hour to get to his house. Ended up hitting this bar across from where we stay, thinking it'd be convenient to be able to walk/stumble back afterwards. Unfortunately it was nothing but rednecks and they didn't have a liquor license. So off to another bar, still full of rednecks but slightly cooler, they had a live band that didn't suck too bad and they weren't stingy with the vodka. Two shots, a screwdriver, and 4 songs later we were outta there to dancing at the beach, which was fairly fun, but the liquor didn't sit well with the food poisioning evidently so we went back to our friends house and watched The Machinist, which was awesome. Christian Bale did bad evil things to his body for that role. Amazing to think he went from that to Batman Begins, where he's even more buff than usual.
Sunday we surprised her mom with what was to be a short visit, we were supposed to be out of there by noon so we could go visit our friend who we hadn't managed to catch up with the day before. But as we were going to leave we here this loud pitiful yowling from the car. Turns out we had driver over with a kitten in the engine area of the car. Thankfully she was unhurt, but it took about an hour to get it in a position where we could pull it out and get it all cleaned off. Another hour gone. Then we had to get it food/cat milk, while Becka was gone doing that I got a call from the friend we were supposed to see and find out she's still at work and should be getting off around 2 (maybe). I had my family's mother's day BBQ at 3:30 about 30 minutes away from where we'd be meeting her so I declined, hoping that maybe next time I'm in Jax we'll be able to get a good chance to hang out. (2 weeks from now, thankfully). So I spend the next hour with the kitten and then my wife's mother decides that Becka HAS to go see her grandmother. I'm cool with that but tell them to hurry. An hour and a half later, they finally show back up and while they've been gone they decided that WE should keep the kitten until they get rid of their crazy ass cat who would probably kill it.
So now I have a wonderfully cute kitten...and two very unhappy cats. I'll be uploading pics of the cat to my pics here in a bit, check them out, she's SO tiny and cute.
PS I'm not mad at anyone about this weekend, it just sucked that every single plan seemed to get fucked up.
