Good weekend as always

soooo, had a good weekend again, as always with the Nerd.
Went to visit Warf, Reri and Little Larry on Friday night. Little Larry sure can crawl like the dickens! Nerd and Lil' Larry had fun rolling on the floor.
Saturday went to Ancaster, did some shopping and went to the crappiest Liquidation world ever. It was such a let down, because it's housed in the head quarters of liquidation World, the regional offices and everything are there, and it's this tiny, teeny show room. Suckage of assage.
Walked around pumpkinfest Saturday night, saw some very neat decorated houses. Some very creative and nicely done, some just full of heart, and mildly messy. There was one house that had two witched on a bike, that had a mechanical device in it that had it peddling. Another house had a bucket with a head in it, turning from side to side.
Sunday we went to pumpkinfest day time activities, and the craft show wasn't the greatest, in fact, it was pretty crappy, but again, with Nerd, it was fun. The vendors were church basement ladies and confirmed bachelors whom live with there Mother and watch their stories every afternoon.
Dinner with Nerds parents was very nice, but note to self, Jehovah's do NOT get blessed after they sneeze. That's a no-no. Ooops.
I think the highlight of pumpkin fest for me, and possibly nerd, was the Christmas tree of pumpkins where the local grade school kids carved pumpkins and then placed them on a tree structure and they were lit up. My favorite was the pumpkin that just had a huge gaping hole carved in the face, or really, for the face. A lot were carved upside down (this town needs to be tested for mass dyslexia). Another fav. was one kid who repeatedly stabbed their pumpkin. I wonder what he (she) was thinking...
Anywhore, as always, good times. Can't wait for Thursday.

I should have warned ya 'bout Pum'kinfest. You know, you live all your live, well my life not yours, i grew up in Burlington. We didnt have decoration day, we didnt have a fair, we didnt have the day off from school to go to the damn fair, we didnt have a pumpkin fest. The only fest we had was lobsterfest, and ribfest, both of which make sense.
And i do think that it was very unfair of Nerd not to give you a run down sheet of dont says.

I'm not too worried about the 'bless you' thing, frankly, if I haven't burst into flames yet at their place, I should be ok. Of course 'they' are building me an express lane straight to hell, no handbasket for me! I also think they're will be a scholarship fund started in my name on how to get to hell.
