  nothing like a government-mandated long weekend to rejuvenate the system... gonna check out "the village" tonight. hope it's a good one. i wonder what his surprise ending will be? truth be told, i'm more interested in seeing "harold and kumar go to white castle". nothing better than a stoner film. but since i chose the last one, it's the wife's call this time... i'm not even sure if she should see that movie, since we're planning to visit my folks up in their cabin the following day. that place could have easily been the location for that movie - they don't have any power, running water, and they're surrounded by acres of trees and thick underbrush. i haven't heard a peep from my parents since they went up there, so i'm eager to check up on them.
upon our return on sunday, i think i'm going to hit the driving range. got a big golf day lined up with some buddies next week, so i want to get some practice in. my buddy's girlfriend-of-sorts is going with me, so we can learn (ie. look like a pair of losers) together. we have a little wager going on, to see who can get offered a free hands-on golf lesson. man, i hope she wins.
* shudder * i promised her that i would act as her jealous boyfriend if things get out of hand. and now, only 40 more minutes until i escape this desk. i have the same scene from starsky and hutch paying over in my head: "get me a (some drink i can't remember). do it. do it. (pause) do it. " i think i've just adopted a new catch phrase.
