Kevin decided that Brian and I (because we are such hermits, specially now that we are watching movies through internet downloads — we are coming out to celebrate vday next saturday by doing a two-movie extravaganza: Daredevil<\/font><\/a> during the day at the balcony, it’s reserved seating so we won’t have to fight the crowds, and How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days<\/font><\/a> in the evening so we are both pacified, one for him and one for me but I don’t think dinner at Restaurant 155<\/font><\/a> is in the cards because after purchasing our vday gifts to each other we are both semi-broke, we’ll see though) deserved a night out so he treated us to cosmic bowling at Thunderbird Lanes.. The photos below are an account of the experience.<\/p>\n

Kevin told us that we didn’t have to be there until a little before eleven thirty (when the fun actually starts) so Brian decided to play The Getaway<\/font><\/a> while I was getting ready. He actually got past the point that he’s been working on for the last two weeks now. However, he’s now stuck at another frustration point. I could never get into that game. I hated GTA3<\/font><\/a> and GTA: Vice City<\/font><\/a>(two of Brian’s most favorite games).. And I really hated Max Payne<\/font><\/a>. Even Brian admits that one was crappy (shouldn’t have bought it, just because it looks cool in tv commercials doesn’t mean it actually is).<\/p>\n

For those of you who don’t know, Chris is the new girl in Kevin’s life (recently promoted to girlfriend status, I might add). If you thought Stephanie was it (after all, she caught the bouquet and he caught the garter at our wedding — how much more perfect could it be — it was so perfect, even I thought it was rigged), well so did we.. Things just didn’t work out, unfortunately.<\/p>\n

Brian was kind of hungry after exerting himself more than usual and I don’t ever really pass up the opportunity to eat so we decided to stop at Burger King<\/font><\/a> on the way home. Their fries are nasty but they offer one of my guilty pleasures: cheese whopper with bacon, no pickles and onions. Whoppers are the best, man! Other burgers just don’t compare. Brian and I actually had this discussion once about how all fast-food burgers are the same. He says they’re all microwaved. I told him no, Burger King<\/font><\/a> whoppers are special. Could he not taste the difference? It’s flame-broiled, I insist. He just shakes his head. It says so in the commercials! There is no point arguing with me. Anyway, I guess I should probably take my own advice and not believe every tv commercial out there.. But the taste! It’s so good! Anyway, we ended up watching Serving Sarah<\/font><\/a> while we ate. It couldn’t really keep me a awake. Then again, I can’t fault the movie completely. We were watching it at around three in the morning.. It’s just that the movie itself wasn’t as funny as I thought it would be. Good thing we didn’t pay for it! LOL!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
