Subject: Weekend Was Poo

I DID download Gran Torino, The Reader & Frost/Nixon (much like Joey). I have yet to watch them, though.

So, Amy and I left KS on Friday and went to Sedalia to hang with Amy's parents. I say hang because I cannot think of a better way to describe what we did. I also cannot understand why we went. It has something to do with not being able to go there for a few weeks if we didn't go this past weekend, but even that makes little sense. We regularly see and hang out with them when they make trips to the city for various reasons. I would say it was to see our niece (who we see less often), but she was tied up with in-laws visiting from out of town, so that didn't matter.

Anyway....

When we weren't sitting around talking, we were sitting around eating. When we weren't eating, we were avoiding watching TV with Amy's dad on the giant plasma in the biggest room in the house. We were avoiding him because he watches either (a) rehashed poker telecasts, (b) History channel nonsense (sometimes good), (c) crappy old movies, (d) DVR'd country music concerts/specials, (f) FOX News or (f) random flicking of all of the above. When we weren't avoiding that and actually doing that, I spent time on crosswords or reading my Goodgle Reader stuff on my phone. When not doing that, we were in a hot tub.

That's it (except for some Obama shit-talking thrown in there as well).

I will say that it was a brutally boring weekend, but this is rarely the case. We usually have a reason to go there, but this time, we did not. Hence, the explanation of the suckiness. Ahh well- I guess I'll have these things now that I am married. They are awesome in-laws, they give us a ton, they take us out to eat and provide us with free food all of the time, and are extremely nice and generous people. I love them and wish them to be a part of our lives forever. Just want to get that straight.

We came home on Sunday, kicked some ass at Lowe's and fixed some shit at the house and then went to sleep. In the meantime, I somehow lost my fucking MagLite.

All in all, a solidly unfulfilling weekend. However, this weekend is set to be wonderous. I'm in all-day meetings for the next 2 days, so consider me a gay on the board until those are over.
