Dayum....

Rough weekend! I had to work all weekend and got scant little accomplished. On Saturday, I slept in, but Robyn droped by, we ate together, then she took me to the local outlet center and bought a set of sheets for my new bed. I guess she figures they'll be hers again eventually, she's right.

We went to Shake and Steak on Saturday night after work. That place is getting so bad, I'm actually rather cook a whole meal at 1 A.M. rather than endure that. Waffle Houses have better standards. I must admit, I like thier burgers and milkshakes very much. But the food was skimped on, and the service was horrible. At the current tred of declining service, I half expect for the waitress to pistol - whip me with a ketchup bottle, steal my wallet, and throw me through the front window. I'm not going to be eating there for awhile to say the least.

Paul gave me a set of tires for the back of my car. 275/60/15's a very wide tire. I think they look pretty cool. I need some 235/60's up front and I'll be set. Upon putting tires on the car, I discovered I had 4 different types of tires on the car, which would explain the poor handling. That improved drastically with the new tires. Thanks Paul!

I want to look into putting AC in the car. Honestly, no more than I drive, I could have her up and running for a few years, why not be comfortable. A radio too! As a pizza car, it would have lasted maybe a year and a half tops. A year and a half in pizza terms is a bit over 50k miles, which is a good return on a $300 car. My pizza days are long over, and now it makes sense to actually mantain a car. Too bad it wasn't the other Crown Vic, I liked it better.

I'm going to do a piece on pizza driver logic.

I watched two movies on Sunday after work. Dungeons and Dragons 2: The Wrath of the Dragon God. D&D 2 took a step away from the first movie, It had a better plot, unfortunately D&D 1 had better budgets, actors, directors, & special effects. Had D&D 2 been given the the same chance D&D one had, it could have been a hit. Honestly, I've seen better attempts with film school freshmen projects. Hell, the average Xena episode had more to offer. I was left feeling as if two hours of my life were raped from me.

Next in queue was Mr. and Mrs. Smith, this was by Brad Pitt and Angellina Joilee. This move had an interesting concept: to assassins, working for rival hit squads, are married to one another and has no clue of the others' true identity. This is an obvious action - comedy. The ammount of detail as well as the quality of acting and directing is excellent. They knocked this one out of the ballpark. I found myself laughing at several points in the movie, which is big, since I usually do not laugh.

On a sad note, I was told that X3 is being directed by Ang "I made The Hulk" Lee The fact that any employee of Marvel would even consider eating at the same McDonald's Ang Lee had visited, let alone allow him to make a movie in the highly lucrative X-men franchise, is proof that Jesus died in vain (thanks Mr. Cranky). I can't imagine anything short of a train wreck.

When I work all weekend, I feel so drained. I can't keep this up forever, but I won't have to......
