the weekend was a blast. had an opportunity to stay close to home, and i loved it.... started out friday with enjoying the spoils of having to pay home owners association fees. the pool and "water park". c and i rode our bikes over and waited for the others to arrive. i had an opportunity to show him around the bike and hike trails. it's really good to have teenagers around, they help you remember (good and bad). we raced, i lost. ugh! youth. it was all good though. i remembered playing in the sprinkler as a child and, once summer hit, we got the "real water toys". you know, the sprinkler that was shaped like a cartoon character, "another" slip and slide as well as a slew of water guns. kids aren't excited by that stuff anymore. the pool(s) had a little water park for the kiddies, a wading pool, a kiddy pool, what the hell are we paying for over here? So this prompts an idea.... i will come over here and work out. i had worked out in the rec room before, so now, despite the fact that we put together a home gym this weekend. i am determined to get our money's worth. i may even take up golf. (doubt it!) anyway, i did a workout in the pool twice this weekend. and now my old arse is paying for it.. i have things that hurt that i have been aquainted with in years. and pain is a heck a way to be re-introduced. hello my name is Sartorius and Gracilis. this morning i literally limped down the stairs, silencing pains which were hanging out on my tongue waiting to see the light of day.
we watched run's house, the 40 year old virgin and tried to finish date move. i bought a deep fryer so we experimented with empanadas and taquitos. they were pretty good....
we did a showcase/fundraiser over the weekend at Mitchie's. it was cool. except... well, most of you know my "problem" with that venue, so i need not go into it... let's just say..... it was an experience. overall we did well. i have completely lost the timing on one piece, so i bit on one of b's lines. that sucks rocks.... i mean really? especially when you know the piece... So... i guess that's the better of two evils...
have a good work week.... or just a good week whatever you do...

Good to know you enjoyed yourself, nothing like those sprinkler memories to keep you soaked! I've done my first joint piece and would like your approval whenever you have the time.

P. S. Evil never has a better side...

shyt, back when we were little it was just called "getting wet." no pool. no sprinkler. just the cold ass water hose being held by an older cousin and our ashy selves running past them! LOL

Yeah, my granddaddy has a pond we used to go into. It is amazing how much fun you get to have as a kid cause you are totally oblivious to anything that keeps the fun from happening.

There is no way in hell I would get in that pond now...BUT I loved it as a kid. Last summer my sister, our cousin and our kids where visiting the folks and we were playing tag with the spray hose. The kids loved it and we got to be young and silly for a little while.
