What a day

Yesterday I had company. The girls came over for some old lady time. It was awesome. I was so tired that I didn't take a shower, so I tried to keep my distance. lol. 

Dan got home before the ladies showed up and I handed him the toilet handle. I said: " could you put this on? I didn't have enough strength."  He looked me straight in the eye, and said: "now?" in a whiny voice. I just looked at him and glared. I said: "Yes now. I would really like it if I didn't have to tell the ladies to stick their hand in the tank to flush. " It took it less than 5 minutes. Really! lol

Then Beth arrived. She had brought cup cakes. " Note:  I adore cup cakes! Cake of any kind!"  She said it was a recipe she found. I don't know if it was Weight Watchers but it was chocolate cake mix with Diet Coke. That's it. No oil, water or eggs. I have to say as a cake consumer it was very YUMMY!  I don't remember the recipe for the frosting but it was low fat something. I'm wondering if I can do it with a Yellow cake and diet sprite. or maybe lemon and diet sprite. Maybe I'll try.

I had to laugh too because I sent Lorie a text that just said: " don't forget the plates".  Remember a couple weeks ago we went to Color me Mine and decorated plates. She picked them up for us, so I haven't seen mine since it was first done. I was excited to look at it. And Lorie has a lousy memory so I just wanted to remind her to bring them so I could see them finished and get  mine.  When she arrived she was carrying a package of paper plates.  I laughed and said, oh look. Lorie brought plates. She looked at me funny and then said, "you sent me a text and said don't forget the plates." Suddenly it hit me and I started Laughing my ass off. I rolled my eyes at her and Beth when they were staring at me and said: " I meant the other plates." She still looked at me confused until I said: "What did we do two weeks ago that involved plates?"  She then smiled and laughed and said "I wondered why you wanted me to bring plates." She forgot to bring them ones we did. Sigh, maybe I'll go out tomorrow to get mine. lol

Today I slept until 2. I needed it as I cheated the night before and had a few cookies as well as the "diet" cup cake.  When I got up, Dan said he wanted to do something with me. A movie, bowling, something. I wasn't up to a bowling session. I suggested renting a movie. I got some free Red Box rental slips when I was Smith's, so we got on the Internet and started looking at rentals at Red Box. We settled on Push and Gabriel and Dan wanted Red Baron. He had to got to two different boxes but they were close. When he got there though the coupons wouldn't work. Found out they are only good at the Red Box at the Smith's.  None of the movies we wanted were there. So we'll try again. I'm pissed about it now, and they have to be used by Tuesday. LOL

We sat back, had stuff Dan picked up at Ab's Drive-in. We watched Push first. It was alright. Annoying, and confusing at times. Probably will not buy it unless it's like less than $5.00.  The next was Gabriel. I had seen it at Wal-Mart on the $13.50 rack and thought it looked like it could be good. But I resisted as buying it. I read about it on Wikipedia and thought the plot was interesting, but then forgot that I would buy it the next time I seen it. So this time Dan rented it. I'm very happy about not impulse buying it. It was not worth it. Slow in some parts, confusing in others. The quiet moments had to be turned up way loud, and the loud moments pushed us through the wall. It was very anti-climatic too.  Overall I'm glad we watched because we spent time together, but ugh on the actual movie.

I keep yawning even though I've only been up 8 hours. I'm sure that if I tried to sleep now I would be wide awake. Crazy.....  Anyway, Desktop Defender is awaiting me.....
