Yesterday we went back in time at the Old Spaghetti Factory for their anniversary.
Basically they were using pricing from the 70′s and donating the dollars to the BC Firefighters Burn Fund. So we went for $2 pasta.
The line was gigantor when we got there. Val went straight from her work and we met her there soon after. Pretty much she was at the end of the block. We must be very dedicated to cheap food because we had to wait almost 3 hours before we got in.
While we were waiting, Maine texted Aaron so he joined us as well to (not) celebrate his forward going in time. Aaron hates fun and pictures of himself and celebrating his birthday so we just tried not to mention it. He spent most of the night harassing Val about her desire to one day have children.
I got the Homer variety and when the waiter brought it out he told us we were lucky because we just got the last of the cheese. Score!
Anyways, here are some school photos that I meant to put up the other day but then did not because I am lazy and terrible.
I dyed some of the fleece we got, and then I had to card it. I spent most of Friday carding, and then spinning a bit.
While I was carding, Sol took over my camera and got some action shots of other people working.
And also not working.
Pretty much when I went home on Friday my arm ached so hard from carding, so then I had some Tylenol but it did not help so I dipped into the T3s Maine had from his tooth ache adventure. That helped.
Then we met some friends to watch The Crazies. That did not help.
Seriously I am such a baby in scary movies now. I used to love them so much and now I just jump a lot and get scared. I can’t decide if I like them or not. But I think I will go see the new Nightmare on Elmstreet movie anyways. (Can I put in a request for a Johnny Depp cameo?)
After the Crazies, Val came to our house for Bertundo love and also Blue Crush because I like that movie for some reason.
On Saturday I went up to the school to work on my sampler, which is due next week. I’m doing a map of my hometown, with images of memories I have from growing up there.
If any old GC people are reading this, I’m sure you recognize some of these!
Oh and for one last lol, here is the “fashion drawing” I did in class that I didn’t entirely hate from last Thursday.
Drawing is not so much my forte.
Ok I have to go back to watching Stephen Hawking’s Universe now.
