Ok so the weekend was not all that bad. Really! Except for Sunday. No, wait, Sunday was really good to! It was nice and relaxing the whole day. We ended the day watching Children of Men on HD-DVD while Sarah (TG) worked on her paper. Then she put her foot down from the couch and started the chain of events that would lead me to the here and now where I am sitting at work with little to no sleep and a house that is a complete disaster area.
But I am getting ahead of myself.
Friday was Spiderman day! The new movie came out and I had to go see it! Sarah got off work at 9pm and we caught the 10:15 show at the Regal. As much as I wanted to wear the costume (and I am looking damn good in it now!) Sarah talked me out of it. Had it been the Midnight show the night prior, I probably would have done it. The movie was good. Not as good as number 2, but the CG was amazing, the fighting was great, even some of the base story lines were very comic book. I could have done with out the overload of cheese and as much as I like Venom, 1: they screwed up his lines (it’s WE hate spiderman, not I, you are two freaking voices!) and 2: I don’t know that there is a way you could bring that comic body type for Venom to the screen and have it not look off kilter. Outside of that, I liked it! Friday Rating = Great!
Saturday was a busy day with baseball and school work and such. It was also Free Comic book day so I broke routine and went on Sat instead of Sun. Also had Heather stop by to give her a ride to the airport Sunday morning. We hit up Don Pablo’s for Margaritas on Cinco De Mayo. Saturday rating = Good
Sunday was my relax day. I scheduled nothing for the day so that I could just relax, do some simple house stuff and just take a break. The last few weekends had been hectic and I needed some me time. So it was pool in the morning and just chillaxing at home. Doc came over and we did some voice recording for Episode 2. Sarah came over so we could watch Children of Men and it was just a nice night. So I will pause and give Sundays rating now. Sunday rating = Nice
Then, around 11pm Sarah put down her foot.
“Umm, the floor is wet!”
“Oh, something probably spilled, I’ll get a towel.”
“No, I think something is wrong”
It was then I noticed that water was flowing OVER her foot. We jumped up and started moving things faster than Barry Allen hyped up on Krispy Kreams. I called the Maintenance people and rushed them over. Apparently my Water heater blew and dumped it’s contents into my apartment, but yet the faucet figured “oh, the water heater is empty, I should keep filling it” so more and more water kept coming. When the guy got there and opened the closet to turn off the water, it was like out of a movie with all of it rushing out. He was there until about 3am completely replacing the water heater and vacuuming out all of the excess water. They came back around 10am the next morning and ripped out all of the padding and drying off the carpet. Everything that was in my living room and my bedroom is now crammed into other corners so there was room. We were stuck in a hotel last night where I slept for crap (cause you know I got so much sleep on Sunday night). Today they will be replacing pads, super cleaning the carpet and then I get to move everything back into place.
Sunday night, Monday Day rating = TEH SUCK!
dude that blows. good thing that your apartment people were so quick!
