A decent Saturday

Well, it's the end of another Saturday and I had a pretty decent day. I actually slept in... well I woke up at my normal 6:30am time but I was able to fall asleep and just plain relax in bed until about 9:30.

Went shopping for a wedding present for my friends Kerry and Richard who are getting married in Ottawa on the long weekend. I can hardly wait for the vacation even if it's only for 4 days and will involve 12 hrs alone in a car. It's been too long since I've been away from home. Looks like I'll be getting the Jetta (w00t for VW's) for the weekend so I won't have to rent. It was pretty hard finding stuff on the registry list. A number of discontinued products or they were taken already. So I ended up getting some tools and a board game. I love getting people games.... it's a pretty safe gift since most people don't think of it. I also got myself a few inexpensive DVDs and books.

Then I helped my dad clean up after his spontaneous yard sale. I'm not sure how much he sold but at the end we loaded it all into the back of the truck and brought it to a good will place. I also unloaded out a bunch of old clothes that I had been keeping for some strange reason. I think I've been reluctant to get rid of them because it would be the final acceptance of my much bigger waist line. I hate the amount of weight I've gained and how it makes me look, but I just can't seem to motivate myself to do anything about it. And well having a desk job is not the way to go when you're annoyed with your weight.

I went over to my friend Toby's place for a bit after supper. He just bought a new computer and was having some troubles so I helped him out with that. Everything seems to be running smoothly now. We also watched Titan A.E. while the computer was doing it's thing. The story is kinda lacking but it's a fun movie and a really great melding of tradition animation with computer animation. The DVD was only $8.

Now it's time for a shower and sleep so I'm all fresh and ready to go for the kids at Cecil Facer. =)

Matthew.
