Your weekender mit Uberreiniger
Aug. 21st, 2011 11:48 pmIt has been a pretty busy weekend. It went by way too fast. I still can't get used to this whole notion of having to be at work at 8am every single weekday morning.
Friday night I had band practice. It was our first time getting together in almost three weeks but we were all three very impressed at how we're starting to sound. I joked that we're starting to sound like a band who actually practices together in the same room and we are. Jak (guitarist) wants to add a Judas Priest song to the mix. Now we just have to narrow down which one. I don't envy her task in playing a Priest song, of course, but I anticipate a fairly easy time of it on the bass. Now watch me be wrong about that :)
Just as I was about to go to bed Friday night Kansas City got hit by its own personal hurricane. The power went out and didn't come back on again until around 8am Saturday morning. What was really bad about this was not having any electric fans all night. Even with all the doors and windows open to let in the cool stormy air the house was still very, very HOT. Oh, and then once the power did come back on it was still another 7 hours before the cable and internet came back up. Frustrating, since I actually had a ton of plans for the day, all of which involved being online. I wound up sleeping most of the day. It was just as well since it turns out I had a massive sleep deficit from the week.
Today M. and I FINALLY got to go see Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Pt.2 It lived up to all expectations and was definitely worth the money to see in IMAX 3D. We had planned on seeing Conan as well but it turned out to be just too expensive. We've been seeing movies mostly on weekday afternoons and had forgotten just how expensive movies are on the weekend. We were running out of energy by that time, though. When we got home we both wound up crashing and taking a huge nap. I think I'll be feeling it tomorrow. Naturally tomorrow night I have band practice again.
So yeah, pretty epic weekend. Did I mention the neighborhood is littered with broken tree limbs?
