I drank and drank and well the diet coke did nothing. It was a fun weekend albeit a bit busy. First was Friday where we had plans to videogame with Shehan and Nali but there was a minor problem – Xbox Live didn’t support 2 Live players on one console – so we had to switch from Ultimate Alliance to Halo – in the end it was fun and I’m very far from my days where I was a crack shot and fairly decent at FPS’s.
Saturday was a busy day as well, I got up early and made it over to Algonquin for the MTG Release Event – where I knew I was staying for one game – so with lethal damage possible (and a 2-0 Win) – I conceded to my opponent so he could have a better chance at getting some prizes – it was a great experience I was a severe underdog and had managed to pull out a great win so it gave me a little extra jump in my step as lately I’ve been down about MTG and not playing at a high level against good players. This was followed up with some relaxing and a trip with Mona and Nat to Montana’s – where I got my usual – Apple Butter Rib Tips. After that we were able to get in some UA with Shehan and Nali after purchasing a second copy (used). I’ve beat UA some time ago but its so much more fun with 4 people and randomly trying the weaker characters and hearing some of the dialog – its cheesy so I enjoy it.
Sunday was the big day though – early to rise I was able to make a cheese plate, homemade chicken bites, and set up some veggies and finish cleaning (vacuuming…. whose idea was it to get a long-haired cat?). People showed up at different junctions and there was only a small blip – Jeff didn’t have the full address (my fault) – and was unable to find the place and gave up and went home – had people not been drinking heavily when he called we would have picked him up. Speaking of amusing though – never let Mona near a Trivia game with multiple people when she’s not playing – blurting out random answers were particularly funny when they’re wrong and 2-3 people believed her. Rockband was a hit as at 1/2 time people forgot to go back to the game and kept playing but most of us were happy to watch the last 10 minutes and see the Giants beat the Patriots.
Pictures available later.
Catch you all later – hopefully to gloat about an MTL win. Oh well, even though MTL narrowly managed to beat OTT once this week, Saturday’s defeat from the Sens was complete and powerful.
