This weekend was fairly busy. On Saturday, I went to the market again, and wandered through downtown Amsterdam a bit for some pictures 
. I'll put them up after I resize them, which will probably be sometime later this week. I wanted to shoot some more pictures, but I went to the market BEFORE I shot pics, so after about an hour of walking with 20-25 lbs of fruit and vegetables on my back (not kidding, you can check the pics later 
), it was starting to get heavy. I also didn't get a good picture of the windmill in downtown Amsterdam that I tried to shoot from the (moving) train, so I'm going back soon .
Sunday, my cousins and brother came over for a BBQ. As always, I got way too much stuff! We were all so full. I truly couldn't eat another bite, and we still had plenty of leftovers. We started outside, around 4 PM, setting everything up. But it got pretty chilly around 6 PM, so we decided to move inside. As always, there was some Eye Toy action going on. But I didn't take pics, because my batteries were empty from the day before. Next time, I'll try to take some pics, or possibly even a video of us being retarded. I didn't play too much by the way, I was way too full from eating.
Today my parents came over for brunch, my dad had to work yesterday so we couldn't do it on Easter Sunday. They were supposed to be at my place at 10:30-11:00, but my brother was late as always. And since he has a habit of turning his phone off, I had to bike over to his place at 10:45 to wake his ass up. He did have a bit of an excuse, because someone threw some rocks through a couple of windows in his neighbourhood at 1 AM, including his. So he was up untill 2:30 for a police report and the likes. But 11 AM isn't THAT early. Yeah, I might be a bit bitchy. But he is always late, not just when something happens. He sleeps an average of 12 hours a day, he's even lazier than me.
Anyway, brunch was good. I made some fresh orange juice and apple juice, made some croissants, boiled eggs, and we had a traditional bread with dried fruits, stuffed with almond paste. I gave my parents some of the leftovers from the BBQ, and had the rest for dinner.
Tommorow, it's back to work for me. The coming week is gonna be hellishly busy. I'm also going to start working more hours. We'll see how it goes. Last week, I had a bit of an anxiety attack (well, more than a bit...
) about being able to do everything I need to do this coming month, I hope that doesn't repeat itself.
Well, that's it for now. Hope all your weekends were good, too.
