I'm heading to The Fringe (http://www.fringetheatreadventures.ca/index.php/festival/) with my girls. But first, we're going to pick up this wicked swing set (for them, not me boohoo :( ) tonight, and then I have a babysitter so I can go to a BBQ. W00T!

Once.

I was 1 when I got baptized, so this time I made the decision to get baptized. ;)

As well, you can get baptized as many times as you want...That said I don't think you really understand the point of baptism. :p

Basically. It's an outward sign of an inward decision to follow Jesus.

On saturday, I'm most likely going to hang out with my boyfriend and we are going to watch a DVD together (and have some romantic time together)...

I'll also meet my friend (from my uni) who is driving from San Francisco after a long stay with his family for the summer.

I'm going to Cape May New Jersey for 2 days going to the beach!


Thats not far from me. Cape May is beautiful. Look for dolphins in the late afternoon right out past the breakers.

My wife and I get a room at Congress Hall there in the fall. Great hotel.

My boys and I will spend the morning crabbing, then head to meet my girls at the beach for a late afternoon dinner. Fly kites and watch the moon come up again, like we did last night.

Sunday morning will be 18 holes of golf with buddies, then the afternoon will have a bunch of friends coming over for beers/pool and my now famous teryaki wings on the grill.

It should be a good weekend...

Saturday night I do a live set/ DJ mix (2 tech 12s, 2 CD players, laptop, synth, midi controlloer and microphoner..with vocoder of course) Crazy fucked up little party about 10 minutes walk from my house. I've been asked to make the first portion of my set a short history of techno & electro (starting round 72 with some kraftwerk and continuing to 94 or therabouts) after that I'm gonna drop some new shit and split some ear drums, wipe the dance floor with my audiences sweating bodies, etc.

Other than that my weekend will invovle housecleaning and trying out some idea for a new painting...yawnsville, but pleasant. I may torture the crackheads next door by calling the cops on them. They haven't been busted in awhile and one of scratched my car, so its payback time

I quit my job and this is my last day at work, so I will be going home to vanish into the world of video games and sleep with sporatic house cleaning until I find a job that will give me benefits. Of course this means that I will have no internet until further notice... I bet you will all miss me. :rolleyes:

As it's been pouring with rain here the last 4 days and doesn't show any signs of letting up, I'm resigned to spending my last holiday weekend indoors. Today, when I finally wake myself up, it'll consist of the ThreeS, followed by coffee, then gym. Later I'm having dinner with a friend and we're going to watch 'Tom yum goong'. Not the soup, the new movie with Tony Jaa which by all accounts is a kick-ass movie. Broke Thai box office records when it opened there a couple of weeks ago.
Big day.
2morrow, prob something similar, but this time it'll be 'Land of the Dead'. Nothing like a good zombie movie to get me into the mood for work.

probably go see that steve carell movie with my mother-in-law, because he's awesomely funny and it's fun to see my mother-in-law get embarassed by sex jokes...see some friends and look over the film we did last week and/or sit around and watch them do crystal meth and worry about getting arrested...screw like a monkey and last, but not least, play the fuck out of knights of the old republic II. whooo....no life.

Being Depressed, consistently. My girlfriend dumped me on thursday night. I'm going to town to see my other friends in about two hours. I'll come back at, say, 6, then watch my "Spaced" DVDs to keep my mind off it. On Sunday I reckon my tactics will be to gets some work done to distract me, or I'll read or something.

Having just got back from holiday last week I'm too skint to do anything this weekend (get paid next week). So I'm going to head up-town and go to the blood transfusion unit this morning and if the weather's nice I'll walk back home (10 miles). Tomorrow I'm going for a run (rain or shine).

I'd recommend going along to watch "Tom yum goong", as it doesn't look like rain is going away any time soon. It'll take you away from the incessant downpour for 2 hours and it's a pretty good action movie. A bit long and boring in parts and a fairly convoluted plot that doesn't make any sense but awesome fight scenes.
