Okay, Mikey complained that nobody had updated their blogs. Here you go, bro.
Memorial Weekend was supposed to be spent on the water with the film crew, but my boss had it handled so I had a much needed kick back weekend with the fam. We drove up to the mountains (20 degree difference in temp, yahoo!) and did an off road poker run. Since we got done early, and we were bored, we packed up after finishing that and went to the "other" mountains where my my and stepdad live, and we attended their neighborhood chili cookoff. AWESOME!!! Now I am going to have my own. BUT, it will have sponsors, banners, advertisers, and an admission at the gate. Hee hee!
Then we drove home and used the remaining two days of the long weekend to get stuff done around the house.
Had a few days last week to get ready for the DCB regatta. Holy cow I didn't realize until the last minute that this was actually a very big event and my shoes aren't exactly comfy after many many hours of running around trying to get things under control. God, I felt like a participant in a Chinese fire drill. But I guess the people attending the regatta were happy with it all so that's what matters.
We had a film crew down on the beach during our event because they were supposedly getting footage of "responsible partying." Yeaaaaaahhh, right. I'm sure that will show up on their program with funny clown music and all sorts of classy comments.
The big finale of the regatta is the banquet on Saturday night, and once again I dressed up like Vanna White and did my thing. And did it , and did it, and did it, and did it because Jesus Christo (Spanish version of using the dude's name in vain) there were $10,000 in raffle prizes to give away. Sheesh. Including a stainless steel grill with a grill "Island" and a big screen t.v.
Sunday was the day we got dressed up in our Sunday-go-to-meetin' and visit the movie house. Got to see Pirates, holy cow, three hours long. My son was getting bored at one point and I saw him mocking the people on the screen. Overall it was good, but three hours later when I learned there was going to be yet ANOTHER pirates movie I was like, SERIOUSLY?
Very nice kissing scene with Orlando, I was feeling that warming sensation. Without the KY warming gel, mind you.
Today I have paperwork to do, and tons of housework because apparently it's my job. So I suppose this is where my post ends and my day begins.....
