Another day. Yesterday was fun. I got up around 6:30 because the kid texted me to tell me she was freaked out and had almost killed three people and accidentally ended up at the airport. Nice. See, she has a fear of driving. Even though she has had her license for almost two years now, she hasn't really put a lot of time under her belt until she moved in with me. In some respects she has only been driving for 3 months. This was the first time she got on the freeway at commute time since moving in with me. I should explain something -- the kid takes two different modes of public trans to get to school. First the train to go to the light rail station, then the light rail to campus. The train ride costs her $5.50 round trip plus $4 to park all day. On top of that, the light rail is $7. The train ride however is ONE stop. I have been after to her to just drive to the light rail station where parking is only $2 thereby netting $7. She has been hesitant because of the drive. She finally did it yesterday and look where that got us...
In the end she made it fine, but it made for an interesting start to the day. I went out around lunch to pick up some things from my director and then came back home to wait for TGF. Before she got there the kid and I hit the grocery store. I needed to get some basic household stuff like razors, cleaning supplies, etc. Did some work throughout the day on the client I am supposed to be working on which was nice. TGF and I finished watching the show Jekyll while I took care of laundry. Then headed over to the mall to just screw around. We came back and lounged. I made a feast from the leftovers of the night before. A giant pot of gumbo with sausage, shrimp, crawdads, and corn. Then I made grits on the side. It was wonderful. We watched an X-Files while we ate. 112 episodes in. BTW -- Jekyll was fucking awesome. Watch it if you haven't.
After dinner we all settled in for a horror movie marathon. Neither of them had seen any of the Evil Dead movies and TGF had no clue who Bruce Campbell was. After my heart restarted, I put in the original. Evil Dead 1!! We watched both and then went off to bed. Well the kid went off to bed to sleep. We went off to pull a double header until 1 something in the morning. I think that brings me to 10 for the week? Ten. Ten glorious times. Hell even if we break up tomorrow, I have enough built up to cover me for a good year.
Today we have to run around getting props and get ready for a 10pm show. Let the games begin...
