A Day in the Sun

What a weekend. I do enjoy my three day weekends when I get them, but the hell of working 8 or 9 days in a row to get them really sucks. I went to Wisconsin Dells this weekend and got one hell of a sunburn on my face and neck. That isn’t what I went down there for, just happened to be a side effect. I went down there Friday and stayed overnight and was also there during the day on Saturday at Family Land Waterpark. Apparently when you apply sunscreen at a waterpark it um, washes off. I did not know this at the time I was walking around the park baking in the hot sun. I did realize it soon after on the car trip home when the breeze moved some of my hair and it really fucking hurt. I guess you could have called me a lobster because I was that red.
Went to a drive in movie down in the Dells. It was a double feature and we saw Garfield and the new Harry Potter movie. I’m not too into Harry Potter and this was actually the first Potter movie I had ever seen (at least the parts I didn’t sleep though). Of course I fell asleep, the damn movies got done somewhere around 1:30a.m. Garfield on the other hand was pretty good. Of course I used to be a big big Garfield fan when I was younger so I’m sure I’m a little biased. My next movie I want to see is going to be Spiderman 2. Only 9 days left to go on that one.

My VCR broke about a month ago and I have yet to replace it. It’s probably something I should replace but the only time I really ever use it is so I can record my South Park episodes; meaning I have to buy a new one before October… unless I get a DVD R or a TIVO. Hmmm, options are plentiful. Of course the price of those vs. a VCR at $45 makes me opt for the technology of yesteryear. Hey, at least it isn’t a betamax.
