District 9

Last night Josh came by my room and wanted to play Xbox, so we played Resident Evil 5 mercenaries until 3 AM. I was just happy that my night wasn't shot, since i was so bored.

This morning i got up late, like noonish, but not as bad as Josh, who got up at 2:20 after I knocked on his door. We had planned on seeing District 9 at 2:40 so I didn't want to miss it. He quickly got ready and put on his 30 Seconds to Mars shirt and we headed out. The movie was interesting, I liked it. It had some unbelievable parts to it, but I was willing to accept them. Overall a unique movie... OK, i'm not exactly a good movie critic, but I'm trying.

After the movie we came back and I made dinner. After that we played some more RE5 mercenaries until his gf called at 10... but he came back and we played for about 30 more and we called it a night, afterall we have to get up for work in the morning. I'll be interested to see how Josh does with that.

Slow Weekend

Friday night Josh and I started to play Left 4 Dead, but we stopped early 'cause his brother got a new computer and he wanted to play a game with him. I was pretty bored as a result.

I've been planning on getting a PS3 soon, especially since i'm convinced Sony will lower the price before christmas, but I might wait an extra month or two if I decide to get a real bed first. It's a tough decision and if I were in college I'd go with the PS3 first, but bob had a good point that if I were to have someone over again it would be nice to actually have a real bed. So I did some looking online and found a mattress and box spring and basic frame for about $800, which I should have by next week, or the week after at the latest.

Today was another blah day. Josh didn't wake up until after 1 PM and when he did wake up he really wasn't in the mood to do anything. He had slept on his shoulder wrong somehow and it was bothering him. He's been playing with his brother though since 4.

I was bored so I decided to make a dessert, which I've noticed I've done for the past 3 weeks. Last week I made a pumpkin pie cake. Tonight I felt like a pudding dessert so I made a big bowl of chocolate Oreo "Dirt." That'll be nice and ready within the hour.

Work and Play

Last night and tonight Josh and I played Xbox 360 for the entire night. Had to stop at 10 last night because of his gf call, but tonight we played until close to midnight cause his gf needed rest before she travels to Texas for some sorority event. Sooo I'm sorry, I can't talk on MSN tonight since I have work in the morning.

Yesterday we had a company picnic during the day so I got to get out of work a few hours early. Today Jim, our Web IT manager, came by and told me my paperwork was in to convert me to employee, so I will officially become an employee very soon. Sooo happy. Not much happened the past two days since it was basically just solid work and video games.

Short post so I'll finish with 5 potentially interesting facts or thoughts.

1. Sometimes I feel like being gay is a superpower, and I'm at a level of awareness above others who are 'straight.'
2. Josh and I shared the pinapple soda I bought a while ago tonight. Eh, I wouldn't buy it again.
3. Thinking of 5 facts or thoughts is harder than you'd think.
4. I'm mostly German, with small amounts of Italian and trace amounts of Irish. I'm trying to trace my heritage before the remainder of my grandparents pass away.
5. I didn't run at all this week. Keeping up with that takes time and discipline I might not have right now.


OH, EDIT: On the way home from work yesterday I asked Josh if he had any questions about last Thursday. He said no, but he made some random comment about how he thought Zen recently moved to the area. I take it he knows and the subject will lay to rest for now. I'm still glad i asked though, since I'm showing that I'm willing to be up front about it.

Video Games with Josh

Sunday I don't think I did much until I asked Josh if he wanted to continue Resident Evil 5, which we did and finished. We played some Mario Kart on his Wii earlier, but that was pretty much the entire night.

Monday after work I was pretty much bored all night. Zen IM'd me for like 5 min before he went to bed and then I did some MSN :)

Today while eating dinner I asked Josh if he had any other good co-op games for the 360, so I went through his collection and picked out Warrior's Orochi 2 again, and we played that in my room all night, or about 4 hrs. We had to stop so he could make his daily gf call...

While we were playing someone knocked on our door. I get up and Josh asks me if I'm 'expecting company' HAHA. It was just someone looking for a package delivered to the wrong apartment.

Weekend - GF = much better.

Friday morning, I woke up 15 minutes after I normally leave for work since I forgot to set my alarm. I guess I had other things on my mind :X Funny thing is, when I was making my lunch for the day I heard Josh in his room, which meant he hadn't left yet either. The previous day I told him we'd be driving separately because Zen had originally planned to stay the night, but I ended up taking him back before bed. So Josh and I ended up driving together after all. Josh hasn't said anything about that night yet, but I think he wanted to during the drive to work, or he will soon or eventually.

Late Friday night Josh started to do his laundry (which is weird for a Friday) but I think he wanted to pass my room on the way out to see what I was doing. His Xbox 360 has the 3 rings of death right now so he's waiting to get that repaired, so he comes back from starting his laundry and asks me if I'd like to play an Xbox game together, any game he didn't care which. So I picked out Resident Evil 5 and we played for about 4 hours until after 3 in the AM. He left his stuff in my room so we're probably going to finish it tonight.

I got up really late in the afternoon this morning since I stayed up late last night. Last night, thinking of ways to spend more time with Josh, I suggested we go see the G.I. Joe movie today, so that's what we just got back from. After I got up though, I suggested to Josh that we go out to eat somewhere too, so we went out to a country buffet type place which wasn't that good for the price they charged us. Both of us noticed a lot of chinese people there and we thought it was funny that they were eating at an American country buffet while there were probably mostly Americans eating at a Chinese buffet somewhere. So I managed to spend plenty of time with Josh today, with more to come tonight probably. If he doesn't say anything about Zen, then I'm sure it'll come up the next time he's over.

Oh, and sorry, I wanted to be on MSN last night but I was of course playing Resident Evil 5 with Josh.

P.S. Do not for the love of god go see G.I. Joe, it was absolutely trash.

Date

I really should be going to bed, but I wanted to make a post tonight. Today I went shopping all over the place and got a new raised queen sized air mattress, an expensive form-molding top and a new comforter/bed set as well as thermapuedic(sp?) pillows. My bed really does look sweet now and you can't really even tell it's an air mattress. I'm actually looking forward to sleeping tonight.

So, it turns out I have a date on Thursday. We both want to take things kind of slowly so we are going to a nice place that serves tea to chat. He's a few years younger than me, Asian or Asian mixed, and shorter. He's a college student on break for the summer, but that's about all I know at the moment. I'll definitely post to let you know how things turn out.

Can't wait for this weekend to end.

Not much today. Josh and his gf went to the beach in RI for the day. To stay slightly sane I showered and went to walmart to get supplies to clean my bathroom... it was getting messy. I played Xbox 360 for the rest of the day.

I sleep on a queen sized air-mattress because when I moved here, I only took what I could fit in my car. Well, I think there must be a small hole in it somewhere because I've filled it twice today and it seems to be losing pressure. Can't afford a real bed right now so I might have to get a new one until then. I don't like the one I have now anyway, it has a weird raised pillow area attached to it that makes it awkward sleeping on.

Taking the advice of a certain someone I created a profile on Okcupid.com... If you are persistent enough you could probably find me on it. I had someone randomly send me an IM on the site but I didn't reply... he lived in Mass, was 27, and taller than me, all 3 of which I'm not too keen on.
