Friday! Date “Night” With My Schweetie!

So we got up early and went to see “The Wolverine.” Good movie but about half an hour too long. Enjoyed the effects. Enjoyed the sound(s). Enjoyed Hugh Jackman in a role that he’s defined. Came away wondering “What the hell?” Just not as satisfying as even the last Wolverine movie. Something was missing but I couldn’t tell you what. Enjoyed the movie though.

Then we ate at KFC, as usual. Came straight on home cause SWMBO had some online training to do at 1430; which turned out to last only 30 minutes or so. Damn, we could have been spending money at COSTCO or Safeway!

So I got off my lazy old ass and mounted the lattice she got yesterday and let her intertwine her honeysuckle into it. Danged stakes I bought to stabilize the bottom of the lattice aren’t long enough so I’m going to have to make something to hold it still in the wind. Shouldn’t be a biggie…

Not much else going on. We all  went for a walk then I watered the garden. Time to pick some more peas & beans! Kind of listening to “Jack The Giant Slayer” in the background while I putter around the house. Partially cloudy but still warm. Hope all the clouds clear out before the 11th & 12th so I can see the Perseids.

SWMBO took me to Safeway this late afternoon. I really don’t like the crowds that are there during “rush hour.” But I don’t usually like crowds anyway since Desert Storm (1).

The Jellyfish Nebula

We’re going to sit and watch “Despicable Me” together…

Skipped A Day Cause I Was Busy!

Out with my schweetie most of the day and didn’t feel like posting last night. You aren’t so lucky for today though!

SWMBO took me to see “Pacific Rim” at the Galaxy Theater in Gig Harbor. Mixed feelings about it: about 20 minutes into it I was thinking “I pad $8 ($16 for both of us) to see this?” I enjoyed the effects; what you could see. All the fight scenes were in the dark or underwater. Then it started to seem like an episode of  “Iron-Transformers.” I enjoyed the movie; but I didn’t. Guess it left me unfulfilled or something…

Still have mixed feelings about this movie.

After the movie we went to KFC for lunch, then down the street to check out RV’s. Saw a couple of really nice little trailers and pop-up tents. A couple were even almost within our price/payment range! We’re looking at something both the truck and her KIA could haul around but big enough to be somewhat comfortable for a week or two of camp grounds.

Nice hot afternoon to look at RV’s though. Got home, watered the garden and just relaxed for the rest of the day.

Nice hot day today also but I really haven’t done anything but straighten things up on my computer. Going through a bunch of old “back up” discs and just deleting anything over a couple of years old. Found a cd from 2001!

SWMBO and I also picked our first load of peas and beans from the garden. Well, the first that’ll make veggies for a meal tomorrow evening. Today we had baked BBQ chops, mixed veggies and Red Beans & Rice. It was pretty good.

And that’s about it. Having a “Pirates of the Caribbean” marathon…
