last couple days
I did my Sunday morning thing on Sunday, unsurprisingly. My buddy had invited one of his work buddies to do the Sunday morning thing too, or more accurately his work buddy wanted to do the Sunday morning thing with him, and my buddy didn't stop him. This new fellow, who I happened to go to middle school with, brought along his girlfriend, and after the Sunday morning thing, we went out to eat.
I didn't order, as I was penniless. I prefer going out with people who don't find it rude of me not to order, cause I like being out with people, but I prefer not to pay a lot for food if I don't have to. Especially since I can have a perfectly good meal of beans, which would cost less than a dollar, and will leave me satisfied. No one seemed to mind that I didn't order any food. I did eat some complimentary bread, but sort of felt bad for it.
New guy and his woman left, leaving me and my buddy. We normally sit around in restaurants until we can think of something better to do, or I begin to worry that our wait staff person might want to seat someone at our table. New guys lady had ordered a fried chicken salad, which was a salad, but with little pieces of fried chicken in it. She was a very thin person, and apparently aimed to keep it that way, cause she sure did leave a lot of chicken. I ate some. I hope I shouldn't be embarrassed, as this place is called hoboing, and I am quite legitimately against waste.
We left there, and went to my house, and watched Doctor Who on dvd until it was time to do the Sunday evening thing. After that we went over to the ol' movie house, and took in a show. Zach and Miri Make a Porno. My friend wanted to see it, and I wasn't against the idea, especially since he offered to buy my ticket if I did some of his homework for him. Seemed like a good deal, and the homework was easy enough.
After it was over, I told my friend that I thought the movie was precious, and probably the best movie that could have been made considering the subject matter. It did have far too much male nudity in it. Frankly I wouldn't mind female nudity being removed from feature films, as it has no comedic, or dramatic value, but I especially would like to see an end to male nudity. I find the sight of other men naked to be most repellent. I have no real moral qualms, I just don't like it. There probably is a large demographic of male nudity enthusiasts who the production companies are marketing to, thus it is a practise likely to go on unabated. It was awfully precious though; my heart nearly grew three sizes.
Today I got up, and had no milk so I ate my off brand lucky charms dry, with water on the side. My mom hurt her back playing with children, or something, which is odd because she doesn't like children, or anybody really. So I had to help her grocery shop. I told her I would be happy to get whatever she wanted at night, cause that's the only time I'm comfortable going to large stores. By night, I mean one or two in the morning. Apparently she needed her foodstuffs right away, and the best I could do was go with her, which may be irrational, but I'm fine with it.
The self checkout robot made some trouble, but all in all it was a successful trip. I got one of those DTV converter boxes, and now my tv is all digital, but then analog again. I was surprised the picture quality was improved so much. Every channel is cable quality, and I get one or two cartoon channels! I'm coming up in the world. Shame I don't like broadcast television, except cartoons, and the news, and conan sometimes.
That's about all thus far.--
