Diana and I were kind of struck by the peace of a quiet house today, just us and the kittehs. It was certainly nice, but also kind of sad I think.
Diana's dad and girlfriend Helen Ann (I'm gonna call her that even if no one else does) arrived last Wednesday and left Monday morning. During that time, we also had the Seattle Mattoni's over on Friday. There was much Wii Sports, and Baby Boomers playing physical video games is non-stop funny. There were many baby photos of Nina.
Unfortunately, there was also the plague. About half of the family was hit, including all three of the other occupants here. I can't believe I managed to escape that, although, who knows, I feel like crap today.
Then Kara came down to visit on Monday for a two-night stay. Our favorite Minnesotan is always super fun to hang out with, and we wish she didn't live so far away. She insists we all need to move to Orlando to remedy this, where she can "babysit your future redheaded babies."
In addition to exposing her to Melt, we also saw The Spirit, which was a seriously fun comic film. It didn't take itself nearly as seriously as Sin City, and Sam "Windu" Jackson was the tits. Totally over the top.
Last night we went to Dave & Busters, shot some pool, had poor dinner service and played many games. I got fairly drunk, which I'm still paying for, but we had lots of fun. We definitely need to make it a point to do that more often. We all f'd up Deal or No Deal for many tickets as well. Good, good times!
Tonight, we're low key. Movies, Mario Kart and Ryan Seacrest. We need some quiet time.
