Weekend Update

Da da da da da da da duda dododododododododo

Name that song!

Friday: met with friends talked about God; talked forever

Saturday: (best day of the weekend) got up said prayers; went to meet with friends talking about God and went out to breakfast afterwards; went on beautiful scenic drive through the seriously north georgia mountains. Absolutely the best part of the weekend. Went to the farm, took shower, dried hair by driving around on the four wheeler; farm smells. . .like chicken litter. . .gross. Farm is beautiful though. Lovely day. Was a great way to dry hair and add God's special highlighter. Went to the movies in Gainesville, saw Pirates of the Carribean. Was an excellent flick, soon to be a Green Family Favorite once everyone gets to see it. Johnny Depp is still one of the best actors ever to never win an award. Went to meet with more friends, stood around and talked forever. Went to make a turkey sandwich, thanked God for the day and then off to bed.

Sunday: Movie Marathon: Gangs of New York--not a good movie, overdrawn in the plot, had great potential and failed; Dark Blue--excellent representation of the LA riots, however the story in general was bad, kind of looked like a cheap fiilm, decent entertainment though, Kurt Russel did an excellent job playing the same roll again; A Chorus Line--awesome everytime, unfortunately in the DVD version, they cut several things, specifically the song four-foot-ten, which to those of us who know the musical it was a little confusing, however, the movie is still the ONE. Cleaned apartment while singing A Chorus Line on its second go on the DVD player. Moved all the furniture around and set up for painting that will hopefully begin on Tuesday or Wednesday. It is the biggest wall of the apartment so preparation had to be done. Totally rearranged the aparment and am in process of super cleaning (it turns out that super cleaning takes more than an hour). The whole project in general is a self esteem building exercise. Oh yes, recovered my couch. I knew there was an hour missing in all of that. Went to meet with friends and talk about God. Went to the grocery store for milk and cheese. Got home, made mac n' chees with no milk or butter due to talking with Mom on the phone. Noticed it when talking to Carter on phone, who started to laugh at me. Got off the phone, said prayers, went to bed.

Today is clothes cleaning day. I am super cleaning so there are more than just clothes to be cleaned here, bed sheets and covers, blankets, etc. Hopefully some of the mid summer mildew too much rain smell will go away. We shall see.

The song is the NPR song at night that plays on the pink radio on top of the harvest gold washing machine in the kitchen, while Mom is cooking supper, once we get in from violin lessons and Dad is getting home from work or school. Mom is constantly saying "turn that up" or "that is too loud" while Rachel is setting the table and Carter is doing homework at the dining room table or feeding the dog. Da Da Da da da da da duda. . do do do do dodododo. . .
