I made the mistake of starting with the kitchen and living room and left my bedroom for last, so I ran out of time and energy. Also, there are men scraping and repainting my hallway, so all my nice cleaning product smell is being overpowered by paint fumes.<\/p>\n<p>But I WILL NOT allow myself to stress about this any more. It is the weekend, dammit. If I do not choose to have fun, fun will be provided for me. Saw <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt0331953\/\">Club Dread<\/a> last night with some of my crew and it was *excellent*. It had pinatas and machetes, and that&#8217;s almost everything I need in entertainment. <\/p>\n<p>My friends really enjoyed the character of Juan, but I still love Farva. Jay C. decided to be the joker of the film this time, and I like that they switched it up. Flexibility is essential in a good pseudo-improv comedy troupe (see: Kids in the Hall, Monty Python). I won a door prize draw, so I got to take home a Club Dread beach ball, t-shirt, ceramic tiki glasses (went home with the High Park folks), sountrack cd (some bastard took off with it &#8211; but who???), yuk yuks passes (gave those to Attila), posters and other promotional paraphernalia. <\/p>\n<p>Then I got to eat some delicious chocolate mousse cake and watch someone drive a tank over a lot of cars on ER at Glenda&#8217;s birthday party. My birthday gift to her is going to be the gift of Live Journal, but it&#8217;ll have to wait a few days, since she&#8217;s on vacation. <\/p>\n<p>Tonight there&#8217;s volleyball and I&#8217;m trying to get revved up about it, but after yesterday&#8217;s cleaning binge I&#8217;m mostly craving hot tea, television, and a nap.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I spent ten hours yesterday doing a massive overhaul cleaning of the house, and it still looks gross.
