Getting to Rio

We were planning to eat breakfast at some skillet restaurant. Then I found out they only served crepes. Fail. We went back to a restaurant we ate at before. They gave Little Kat a beach ball with his meal.

Next we headed to the board walk. Little Kat rented a fun cycle. It is a type of bike where you sit close to the ground. You need to lean to turn. He almost wiped out once when he went too fast. He also lost a shoe while trying to get started.

Momomoko and I took an afternoon nap. Then we planned to go to the local movier theater. Momoko researched it and heard that it was smelly, literally. So we drove to the closest big city. That had the advantage of being close to a Sonic. We saw Rio. It was better than I though.

Rainy Day

My bro came over to watch some movies as usual. We had two long movies to watch. So I decided to order in. Dominos delivered some hot wings and cheesy bread. The Figther was the best movie we saw. I said goodbye to my bro and started cleaning the house.

Around this time Little Kat woke up in his tent. He came in the house and asked why nobody woke him up this afternoon. I told him he probably needed the sleep. Little Kat proceeded to eat Momoko's Chinese food leftovers.

Then Kit Kat and Momomko came home from a long day of shopping. They went to the evil Walmart and had a tough time. However they treated themselves to some delicious Subway foot long subs. Little Kat complained that he was left out from the feast. Momoko thought he was okay since he got the yummy Chinese good. I say, "You snooze, you lose."

Seeing Beastly

The family has been wanting to go to the movies for a while. I am just too busy every weekend. Momoko scheduled us to see Beastly on a Thursday. When today came, Kit Kat looked up the movie times. And I got stuck with driving us in the rain to the theater.

When we got there, some chick in a luxury car almost ran me over as I walked in the crosswalk. We got in the theater at the last minute. But it was a rainy Thursday. So we had some time. I waited for the concessions to bake me a pizza. In the theater, we got our favorite seats on the top row.

The movie was better than I thought it would be. I only wanted to see it because Vanessa Hugens was in it. The rest of the family does not like her. They did a significant change from the original Beauty and the Beast movie. The boys at work thought it was a waste of time to see. I will have to disagree with them tomorrow.

Kit Kat's Day

Today is the weekend day when my bro usually comes over to watch movies with me. I took a small nap before he came over so that I would be fresh for the movies. When I woke up, Momoko and Kit Kat had gone out shopping.

Kit Kat came back. She and Momoko went to the Dress Barn. Kit Kat got invited to a friend's homecoming dance. I thought it was strange that Kit Kat had to pay for her own ticket. However it was her money and her decision.

My bro and I got some fast food between the movies. When we got home, the mail man had arrived. He delivered minimal letters. But he left a few packages. One of them was for Kit Kat. Her new cell phone has arrived.

Family Workers

Yesterday I had the family come outside and help me with the yard work. Little Kat had his friend spend the night. So his friend came outside to help too. Momoko did not want the friend cutting the grass with the lawn mower. So he had to pick up stick and bag the grass.

I chopped up a huge pile of sticks and branches. Bagged them all. They filled up 4 trash cans worth. Momoko took the hard task of cutting the grass on the treacherous hill. Kit Kat finished up her part of the work then went to the movies with her friends.

With Little Kat's friend going home, and Kit Kat gone for the night, I asked Little Kat where he would like to go out for dinner. He wanted to go to a Mongolian BBQ place. The price was high. I called around and found a Chinese buffet that cost less and provided soft drinks with the price. We went and Little Kat found that the Delicious Chicken was not so delicious. He also did not care for the stuffed mushrooms. But everything else was great.

Almost Gambling

Last night I asked Momoko to see if there were any hotel rooms available near our favorite casino. She said she found rooms available directly in the casino. This sounded exciting because it is easy to go down the elevator right into the casino.

This morning I woke up early. I went to the casino web site to try and make some reservations. I got an error during the reservation process. What? So I tried again and got an error again. Now I am not one to give up too easily. I called the hotel reservation line up. Got a recording that they were closed. What???

I always tell Momoko that I look for signs here and there. This sounds like a sign that we were not destined to be gambling this weekend. Now I may try calling the hotel back later when they wake up. Don't want to let a little thing like a broke down web site getting in the way of us having fun. If that does not work, we might just have to live it up at home this holiday weekend. That means going out to eat and seeing a movie or two. Anybody out there seen Eclipse or Despicable Me yet?

Last Days

The Kittens leave on Monday for a summer with their dad. I am lucky to have some time off before they leave so we can spend some time together. So far, we have been staying up late and sleeping in until almost noon. We have shared a few meals together and gone to the movies to see The Karate Kid and Shrek 4. I wish Black would not have work so he can join us. I am hoping the weekend will allow us to share a few more activities. Kit is going to stay the night with friends and Little has a play date with his best bud.

New Moon Weekend

Today is the premiere of the movie New Moon. It is the sequel to Twilight. Kit Kat and her friends just went out to see the movie. Momoko bought them tickets online last night.

Little Kat had long ago planned to see the movie with his friend from school. They are scheduled to see it in the theater tomorrow. Let's hope Kit Kat does not give away any spoilers.

I myself don't have any current plans to see New Moon, except maybe on DVD.

Busy Weekend

This weekend is turning out to be a busy one. Momoko has requested that the family go see The Vampire's Assistant at the movies theater tomorrow. Hopefully the cats will have their work done so we can do this.

Then Kit Kat has a pre-Halloween party to go to. She is inviting her friends to come with her to the party. On Saturday, both Little Kat and Kit Kat are planning to go to friends' houses for Halloween. I like this plan. That means I don't have to take anybody trick or treating.

My own brother is coming over on Halloween to watch movies with me. Unfortunately I think I have some B movie DVDs planned for us.

The Movie 9 Released on 09/09/09

Kit Kat spent the weekend away again. First she went to the Renaissance festival with her friends. Then she spent the night at her friend's house to celebrate a friend's birthday. It was just Momoko, Little Kat, and myself at home.

Momoko was sick yesterday. Today she was just too busy. I had to mow the massive lawn today. Little Kat ended up playing video games. Luckily the cat next door was alone and wanted to play. I had Little Kat come out and they played all afternoon.

Momoko thought Little Kat should get some good since Kit Kat was partying this weekend. But like I said before Momoko was busy. I ended up taking Little Kat to the show to see "9". This was a Tim Burton movie. I got some nachos. Little Kat got popcorn and candy. We also both got some Slurpee drinks. We enjoyed the movie. I thought it was a bit on the scary side. Little Kat said it was tame.

Joining the G-Force

Momoko brought the kids to school to help with her classroom. When they got back, they were hungry. Kit Kat said she could hardly stand. This was a case for Chinese food.

We went to a nice sit down restaurant. Little Kat had trouble deciding what to order. He ended up asking for something that was not on the menu. Momoko and Kit Kat both got Mushi-Pork.

Afterwards, we figured our work for the weekend was done. So it was time to go watch one of the movies we had been wanting to see. Since it has been out for a while, we chose G-Force. There were not many people in the theater. We like that.

Weekend Activities

This weekend was nice. I was able to do some shopping on Saturday. Nothing too elaborate just some basics. I went to Wally World during my spree and I was surprised to find a fence blocking my favorite parking area. I am not sure why it was there but they fenced off most of the left side, maybe they will be expanding.

On Sunday, I had started my wardrobe spring cleaning. I cleaned out my dresser. I saved a couple of things for Kit and I put the others in bags. I am hoping my sister might be able to use some of the things I am getting rid of. If not, I will donate the clothes.

Later, Black took me to a movie and a late lunch. When I got home, I was sleepy so I took a nap. Black was finishing up his work and when he completed it we split the leftovers from lunch for dinner and watched an independent movie, Blindness.

Up and Away

Sundays are the days I normally do my chores at home. This weekend I got a head start on the laundry and bills on Saturday. That's because Momoko kept asking for us to go to the movies.

Today I had a lot of extra work to do. However I worked quick. Then Momoko and I dashed to the movie theater to see Up. I was glad we did.

After the movie, Momoko was hungry. I thought we could get some Chinese take out. However Momoko did not know what she wanted. We ended up dining in at this great restaurant close to our house. Now it is time for me to get back to work on my chores.

Snip Snip

Today I took the kittens on a few errands. We started our adventure by going to the library. Kit and Little got a bunch of books.

We knew it would be a long time until dinner so we decided to stop by our favorite place for a quick snack. I remembered a store next door was having a good sale on shirts. We stopped in but did not see anything good. Kit did see a friend she had not seen in awhile. Little and I split a meal and Kit decided to be all grown up and buy her own. I like it when she goes all adult on me.

Next, we went to get our hair trimmed. We ended up spending two hours in the salon because it was really busy. Kit told the stylist that she wanted to dye her hair blue and she told us where to go to get the supplies she would need to help Kit. I am not sure if Kit is going to really dye her hair blue but time will tell. Kit did get a new hairstyle which is a big step for her and it looks cute on her.

After the hair place, we went to the grocery store to pick up a few new items for the week. The kittens have planned menus. We go back late and found Black starving to death. I fix him up with some canned food. It was enough to hold him over until Kit finished dinner. We ended our night watching movies. It was a nice family day.

Is There Life Out There?

Today I took Kit shopping while the boys stay at home doing various tasks. I needed to pick out a dress for a fancy party Black is taking me to in a few weeks. Kit needed some items as well. I was surprised to see the roads a little empty. I guess people did all their traveling early. I found two dresses I liked and ended up getting both of them. I even picked up a new outfit for Kit. After clothes shopping, Kit and I went to Wally World. It was kinda dead there too so we were able to get in and out in lightning speed. Well, Kit is going to the movies with her friends later and Little and I are gonna hang out. Wait...I just saw him sneak out in a swimming suit, super-soaker water gun filled with ice. Looks like Little might have something planned with his friends. Sounds like a great beginning to a long weekend.

Christmas in February

It was Christmas all over again on Sunday. We used our Christmas Movie Gift Cards to see an actual movie. This was a great gift for use because we were able to go as a family and we got to pick the movie we wanted to see. The kittens wanted to see "Hotel for Dogs" but that sounded too scary for us cats so we saw "Ink Heart" instead. I think we all enjoyed the flick. After the show, Black decided to take us to a really nice Chinese Food Restaurant. It was MMMM MMMMM GOOD!!!
