An Eventful Weekend

Oh dear, oh dear. I log on to my blog a day late to check to see what was what, and what do I see? Last week's post did not save. Damn. You poor, poor people. I can't imagine the stress and psychological damage that must have incurred as I robbed you of one week of uninteresting stories about my life or, more likely, a note to say that there will be no update. My sincerest apologies, I hope we can get through this.

Well, to speed things up: over the past two weeks nothing happened, until this weekend. You see, I have had an extremely busy weekend. On Saturday I had to get up early in order to go to Penistone FM. Early in this case is 6 o'clock, not a good time of day to be awake on the weekend. The radio show went fine and the new slot, 8-10, is actually pretty fun.

I then went to town to meet up with a few friends. Those friends however, being students, were not awake at this point, consequentially I had to amuse myself in town for three hours before they finally arrived. When they got here, the all wanted to look around the shops that I'd spent the last three hours amusing myself in. When that was done, we went to the cinema, decided there was no good films on and then went to CEX to buy an armful of DVDs to watch at the sleepover that night.

We bought a film we thought would be bad (Starship Troopers 3), a film we thought would be good (Children of Men) and a film we thought would be insane (Big Man Japan). In the end, Starship Troopers 3 turned out to be one of the worst films ever, Children of Men turned out to be quite good and Big Man Japan... Just watch the trailer...

I had to then get up at 7:30 to go paint-balling for a friend's birthday, not a good time to get up when you've been up all night watching films and playing DC Universe Online (which, by the way, is awesome).

Paint-balling was a ludicrous amount of fun. The first three matches, we lost spectacularly. The second three, we won gloriously. But we narrowly lost on the last one. Still it was very fun. We left at 5, congratulating each other on our Matrix dives and gunsliging.

So, that was my weekend. Probably a lot more interesting to do than to read about, but there you go. Next week: Something else no doubt irrelevant. Good evening everyone.
