Couscous, Cookies, Crakers, Hummus, and Ice Cream: an accout of my weekend.

 Hello!

Okay so this is my first blog post so wooo! Its mildly exciting. So yeah I had a fairly good weekend it mostly consisted of me sitting around, but somethings did happen... Well let me start off by saying that it was my parents 25th anniversery on tuesday, so they went up to Two Harbors for the weekend. so I pretty much had the house to myself (well except for the 2 cats and the dog). For me my weekend actualy started on thursday because I only go to school Mon-Wens. And its kindof turning into a weekly thing that I go out to this backwoods bar called shooters every thursday for karaoke. I go with my cousin Elizebeth (by the way I'm changing up all of the names of people I know for like security perposes, so the only one who you will actualy know the real name to is me, JD). Well we hang out have a few drinks and a few laughs. I have to admitt that thats not the only reason that I go there, or that its even the main reason. You see Elizebeth has this hott little friend named Simon who is gay too. In thinking about it its actually a bit funny that this backwooks bar would just so happen to have 3 to 4 gay guys. Well any way Beth has been kinda trying to get us hooked up, although its more on his end because if it was totally up to me we would have been dating since the moment I set eyes on him. But its taken  a little while to get me out of my shell and reallys start to talk to him this last thursday is when we really started talking. So thursday was good and fun, but man I was so pooped on friday I don't know why, I had only had 3 drinks the night before so it wasn't that I had a hang over or anything like that. Around 10 am I started to read somemore on the book that I was working on which was Julie and Julia by Julie Powell. I got that finished up by about 11:30 and decided to go see the movie of it which had just gotten into town. The first show was at 12:20 so naturally I get there at about 12:15. Well when I got there the ticket girl told me that the movie had not yet arrived and should be there soon, so seeing as how I didn't have anything else going on I just sat around untill it got there. It didn't get there untill 1:10, there where about 7 of us in the theater waiting for it to start then 1:45 rolls around and the movie still hasn't strarted, by this time I have already finished my popcorn and watched all of the preflix crap at least a million times over. The ticket girl came out and told us all that the film was having trouble automaticly starting so they were trying to induce it to start manualy. About 5 min later it finaly started. It was an alright movie not great, Meryl was amazing as always, Amy Adams shouldn't have been in the movie as fas as I'm conserned she just didn't suit the part of Julie whom I had grown mildly attatched to seeing as how I had pretty much just finished the book. Then I ended up later that night watching old episodes of the X-Files, and Ghost Hunters. which was a bad idea seeing as how I was all alone for the weekend. Saturday progressed in much the same way, except for the whole movie fiasco. I had downloaded a shit tone of podcasts by the Eat This Hot Show bunch which consist of Madg Winesteen, Vrea Charles, and Wanda Wisdom, whom are all funny as fuck! I was getting a little bored by like idk 5 or 6 that so I called my cousin James and he was going to come over and we were going to watch some movies or something. But I ended up getting a better offer to do something so I cancled my plans with James and went to the Gay 90's with none other than Simon! Now I'm not a huge fan of the 90's but it was so much better there on staterday night that any of the other time I have been there. I figure that its because I am now 21 and don't have to shuffle in with all of the snotty ass 18 + group. The drag that night was grade A as well, it was honestly the first time that I really enjoyed myself there. well untill Simon and this other guy John that we met there started making out in the happy hour room. So needless to say I wasn't to happy. At one the bar closed ane we headed back home and Simon just gabbed on and on about stuff thats happend to him in his life, like going out to california and calarado and just other things like that. He was pretty drunk but I noticed that he progressivly became more sober. I was the one driving back home by the way, and I hadn't had anything to drink that night. So we get back to his sister's house (which is where he is staying) and I go to say good bye, but he holds me back for a second looks at me and says "this may sound weird, but . . . do you want to play?" and well dot dot dot (Mamma Mia refereance). Sunday consisted of primaraly what the other two had as well, but I did get some studying done too. I also got to talk to my wife via skype last night and another friend from camp. when I say wife its kinda this ongoing joke that we have so no actual relationship type stuff going on, besides I'm gay I just couldn't bring myself to do, well to have sexual intercorse with a lady. And well we talked for like a good hour or more and then we said good bye. But damn I was hungry so I went up to the kitchen and got some food and broght it down to my room and had a little feast of couscous, cookies, crackers, hummus, and Ice cream as I watched the actual Julia Childs whip up some tasty looking dishes on the youtube. All I could think was that this was an amazing ending to an interestinly amazing weekend.
Well I need to be off now I have to go to school!
