Ah, Weekend....
May. 10th, 2009 09:56 pmFinally, a weekend that felt like a weekend.
Yesterday, Wonderful Husband and I polished and released a fansub episode, went to see Monsters Vs. Aliens in 3D (which, BTW, we've decided is a format that is Not Really Worth It and have decided to avoid in the future; the fact that it cost at least half again as much as a regular movie may have helped this decision. The movie itself was good, if not great), then went to see The Dead up at The Forum. Wonderful Husband claims that it was his first rock concert since he was in-utero, and seemed to enjoy it. I also enjoyed it, but would it would have been better if I wasn't fighting sleep deprivation at the time. The drum set was fragging awesome and what Rainforest Cafe only wishes their fake thunderstorms were like.
Today, I finished making my Mother's Day present for my mom (an apron which, this being the first time I've used this particular pattern, needs to be redone since apparently the pattern was designed for a skinny twelve-year-old or something, but Mom seemed to like the general idea of it) and then went up to RenFaire, which despite it being a half-day low-key thing with me in civvies again, I really enjoyed. I caught a few shows I've been meaning to for a while, and a few more that I just happened across, watched the court ladies play games for a while, chatted with some of the boothfolk (one of them a casual acquaintance/friend), and generally... relaxed. I'm usually not too good with crowds or people I don't know so when I make steps toward bettering that, I tend to notice it. Stopped by my parents' place to give my mother her card and gift, and admired what they've done with their garden space this weekend.
Now to go shower off the 'Faire dust and the concert marijuana haze, and then get to bed....
