>You can probably guess I’ve been busy as there’s been nothing since the 23rd.

I got some major XBox-ing done on Thursday night, got Blitz’02, and with a total of 4 controllers… enjoyed multiplayer fun-fun.

Couple people made it over, nothing too exciting, but had a nice relaxing evening.

Went camping on Friday night, chilled with friends in West Brookfield, saw the consequences of a COBRA 40oz malt… as demonstrated by my friend Justin. They went home, I got the tent… stayed up for a bit, finished up the rest of the beer, and basked in the comfort of my laptop’s LCD. Not really =] I realized it was odd being out in the middle of the field using a computer at 2am… but I was bored ^-^ everyone else had already gone to sleep, and there was a slight slapping sound coming from the next tent over, I needed a distraction =]~

I attended a housewarming party on Saturday… talk about a small world. I went with my friend Phil. He knew these people from high school. As it turned out, I recognized the name of the woman’s daughter. I knew these people were familiar but couldn’t quite place it. Then Becca showed up. I hadn’t seen the girl in at least 2 years. We had spent New Years at this woman’s old house and had a fairly uneventful New Years get together. It all came back around. It wasn’t awkward as I was fearing, though turns out that Phil had dated her briefly as well. We met some new people, acquaintances of the hostess… and had a good ol time.

Sunday turned out to be a much needed day off from work — sick day. =] Phil came over and we hung out… more people kept stopping over, and it eventually turned into a regular raging party — go fig. I got my Thursday wish… a tad belated… but I was/am happy. Old friends came out from Palmer way, it was great to see ’em again… now that colleges are out everyone is home, and bored.

Last night everything took much longer then it should have. Me and Phil were trying to go get some food and it ended up being 11:00 before we got in just under the wire @ Chilli’s after trying a couple of other places that were already closed. The waitress was great — made sure we had everything we needed, gave us a free appetizer, and our food shortly thereafter. She even let us finish as they were cleaning up around us. The food was cheap, as was the beer. I was quite pleased. I will be going there again. Hung out for a short while @ Phil’s, went home and flopped asleep.

I can’t say I remember having such a fun filled week… hell — it’s almost time for my weekend again, though I’m off for a business trip next week. Going out to PA, not too much interesting out where we’re going, but I’m hoping they at least have some sort of internet access. Thankfully I’ve got my portable media bin (laptop) to accompany me. =]
