“Who’s the master??”
I was telling Lucy, as we lounged on the grass in Plymouth, that I need to get together with people more often directly after work and, y’know, make hay while the sun shines. Except less with the hay, and more with those things you do in the summertime that are relatively inexpensive and fun.
We haven’t hit Memorial Day yet, so pools are mostly closed, but even chilling out in the grass in the public square was fun. Picnics, frisbee, bbq, etc, all good. So, you think about that. Also, my apartment complex has a pool, and I hope to use it this year. ;) With company!
She’s leaving for Cleveland today, and soon for camp – on the one hand, 10 weeks is much longer than the 6 weeks during summer she was gone last year. On the other hand, I’ll probably have dinner with her once a week, where I can hear about her many adventures with the chilluns. :D
In other news, I received a spam promising to make my nethers larger than Russia, and for a moment I was stuck in some visual parodox, a mixture of the climactic* Akira moment and the “it’s wafer thin!” skit in Monty Python.
Relating to socializing, who wants to come over for a bad movie night, where-in we can watch The Last Dragon? I own it now! I can make scads of popcorn, but am otherwise crushingly poor until my next paycheck. :) No rush, just curious. IMDB says it’s “One long music video with chop socky thrown in”. It was created by Berry Gordy, head of Motown Records. Who could ask for more?
Someone bring over Remo Williams, and we’ll have a “cheap chop socky” fest.
*everyone knows the difference between climactic and climatic, right?
ooooh! me! I’m all about summer socializing (I soooo almost wrote socialism, but that would be anticlimatic…)
*laugh* only if the socialism involves coal-fired power plants!
exactly!
“who wants to come over for a bad movie night, where-in we can watch The Last Dragon? I own it now! I can make scads of popcorn…”
You know, this must be eaten with chopsticks. Any cheap Chinese restaurant can supply you with these. :)
Ahahaha, I actually have some popcorn drizzled with chocolate and peanut butter – those would be perfect for chopsticks.
The Remo Williams Destroyer novels are great! If only the movie could have been better. I wish they’d do a new/better one. Chiun, the Master Emeritus of Sinanju is displeased at the frivolous Hollywood efforts of present his glorious visage to the masses.
I accept the movie in the spirit of all bad movie night flicks, and do not consider it representative of any inspiration it might have had :D
My icon speaks my reply.
that is freaky…..
not sure if it is freaky good or freaky wrong tho
sho’nuff.
(dear god why do I remember that…..)
remo williams… ah the memories!
random question…
Do you know if Lucy ever managed to get up to Lansing to pick up the Revolution for my kitty? :)
I canna say, but you can email her and she will respond. enigma no 2 at gmail will do it :)
If you need a place to swim, I have full access to two pools and can take guests – the one at home and the one at work. Both have been open since the second week of May.
I’m all for a picnic or somesuch! Maybe Minion and I should try to coordinate something of that variety? It would be cat-free and lovely.
Sho!
i want to see that movie.
