I thought i'd regale everyone with how my weekend has been so far.

Let's see. On Friday... I can't seem to remember what i did, so i doubt it was anything exciting.

Yesterday was more interesting though. I woke up and made a Best Buy run to pick up some blank DVDs and the new Battlestar Galactica season 2 DVDs that just came out. Seriously, go watch this show. Ignore the fact that it's got a science fictiony name and takes place in outer space, and just watch it. I despise 99.9999% of tv shows, and i love this one. After that i cleaned up some, played some games, read, and other boring things.

Later on though, Allisa and Steve came over. We went out to dinner at Sapore di Mar, a local mom and pop type Italian restaurant. They're cheap and give you a ton of food. Oh, and the food tastes amazing. When we were finished with dinner, we decided to get a movie from Blockbuster, get some drinks from the liquor store, and candy from the grocery store. Everything was going fine until about 20 minutes into the movie it started skipping horribly. We tried cleaning it but that didn't work, so we ended up driving back to Blockbuster and getting another copy.

When we got back to my house, i was sitting in my chair and Allisa was sitting on one side of the couch. Steve sat down on the other end of the couch and we all heard a loud crack come from underneath the couch. Steve looked at me in terror and said "Dude I'm sorry.." We pulled the cushions up and the front part of the couch's frame had broken right in the middle where it was put together. Then the part that the cushions rested on fell and landed right on Steve's toe. Serves him right.  I don't really mind since my parents are giving me their couch when they move into their new house, but i'm now couchless unless i can figure out how to glue or otherwise attach the broken frame back together. We set up the cushions ont he floor and Steve and Allisa laid on those.

The movie, incidentally, was terrible. It was a crappy horror movie called Ring Around the Rosie. Don't waste your time or money on it.

After the movie me and Steve started playing the Xbox 360. We ended up playing Marble Blast Ultra, which is a game where you roll a marble around trying to get to the end of the level without falling off the platforms. You're also timed to see how long it takes you to finish. This resulted in a vicious competition between Steve and I as we picked different levels and tried to see who could finish the fastest. The most epic part was a level that started out taking us 4 minutes to beat, and proceeded as we shaved off minutes, then seconds, then milliseconds off our times. After Steve held the winning time of 36.30 seconds for several rounds, I reclaimed the throne with a winning time of 35.91 seconds and was declared the winner after Steve could not best me. The fighting was fierce, to say the least.

They both ended up staying the night and sleeping on the couch cushions on the floor. This morning we woke up, i made some scrumptious blueberry muffins, and Steve and I played some more Marble Blast. We were shocked to find out that the world's best time for that level is somewhere around 11 seconds. We could not for the life of us figure out how that's possible. But we have something to shoot for i suppose.

So that was my weekend so far. Sunday, however, is just getting started, so who knows what today will bring.
