“I Like Chinese” - Eric Idle
I had a fun, long weekend.
Friday was the 1st qualifying round for the karaoke contest at McGee’s. A good group of us showed up: Lauren, Sara (up from Chicago for the weekend), Lisa, Eric, Brian and Aaron. After sending a Dodgeball out, Sara D. and Party Bill showed up. And if that wasn’t enough people, Melissa, Gerard and Shelby showed up later. Lauren was one of the two qualifiers for the night. I told you she was good. Pictures soon to follow.
Saturday was a long awaited day. The sixth installment of the Harry Potter series was finally released. I’m 10 chapters in so far and love every page of it.
Sunday I was with Lauren all day. We said goodbye to Sara before she left back home. We then drove along Jefferson to look at the water. Eric and Lisa asked if we would like to go see Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, so we made plans to meet at Shores Theater for the 9:15 showing. That gave Lauren and me enough time to get dinner at Logan’s.
I really enjoyed the movie, even if everyone told me all the jokes before I saw it. The Oompa-Loompa(s) were probably my favorite. I was very glad to see they didn’t cut out all the singing. Much more background to the story and, according to Lauren, it follows the book much closer than it’s predecessor.
Random Thought: I have a horrible craving for Hungry Howie’s.
