Daddy Days :)

Thanks to things not working out right for Dad's work, he had a four day weekend. I saw him three of those days. :D Weeeee.....

Thursday, after he found out a job he wanted wasn't available, he came over and brought breakfast. Mom had gone into work that day (yep, second time for that this month!) and so it was just the two of us. :D We ate MickeyDs breakfasts (yum!) and talked and laughed for a couple hours. Oh, and he kept trying to scare Pixie. :P Punk. Thankfully, when he left and I went to bed (cuz I was still up from day before), Pixie wasn't all riled up and was able to go mimi too. The rest of the day was nice too. Mom came home earlier than if she'd worked a full shift, thanks to getting off early for a doctor's appointment in the same area as her work. She came home, and I made dinner (toaster oven pizzas, :D ). We started watching Avatar, but she like asked SOO many questions and we kept stopping it. She was getting bored and she was tired (or maybe that's why she was bored and unfocussed). Anywho, we didn't finish it (even to this day >.< ). But we still had a nice evening, wehich was completed with the surprise dessert I made her (Jell-o chocolate fudge pudding!).

Saturday, Dad picked me up and we grabbed some breakfast sandwiches at this one donut shop and rented some DVDs before heading to his place. We watched a movie and goofed off for a little bit, then went out to shop for some supplies for my house. We didn't get to watch the rented movie that we both wanted to see (we picked up three: Pirate Radio for him, Zombieland for me, and Everybody's Fine for us). Ah well, always the next day! I took Zombieland home with me and I'm glad he rented it for me, cuz it was pretty funny. :P

Sunday, Dad picked me up again (yay for double whammy Daddy), and we headed to my fave breakfast place. :D Like the dorks we are, we brought our books in to read at the restaurant. :P In my defense, I was ALMOST done with my book. Bah, who needs a defense. We're a family of bookworms. :P Anywho, we did some more shopping at the Dollar Tree and then some food shopping (again for my house). Got a new book, and socks, and a few seasons of SG-1 too! Thank you Daddy!

While at Costco (wholesale market/store), I saw a couple of kids playing. A brother and sister that looked to be close in ages. Heh, the little girl was even wearing glasses and bossing the brother about a bit. >.< Yeah, it only reminded me of me and Josh when we were young.

We watched the movie we rented the day before. Everybody's Fine was a gooood but sad movie. It kind of bugged me that none of his kids visited him and kept things from him. I can't ever imagine not visiting my parents as often as possible. Even decades from now, when they're really old and possibly in rest homes or being taken care of or whatever... I can't imagine not visiting them. (FYI, I'm personally hoping the Rapture happens before anyone I know gets to that round the clock needs a nurse to care for them stage.) Anywho, definitely not a movie for my Mom to watch due to its sad moments being a little too close to home.

Anywho, we had to cut the day short thanks to my brilliance at forgetting the movie that needed to be returned in Dad's neighborhood. So he had to take me home early, so he could pick it up and have time to return it before the rental shop closed. Ah well, still it was a good day. A good couple of days! And I finished my book, FINALLY! Yay! :D
