It's Fat Tuesday, y'all

Tomorrow I gotta stop cussing since I gave it up for Lent. That is really gonna be hard.

So we had our 7th annual Mardi Gras party Friday night. It was ok, but this is my last year doing it. I resigned officially from the Krewe for various reasons. You all know that this year my heart wasn't in it anyway, so now I don't have to worry about it anymore and I'm glad. Still, I felt sad putting my "Mardi Gras" box away in the closet.

What else can you do with 5 yards of slick blue fabric besides make a toga? Seriously, I need to know.

Saturday was my and S's 1-year anniversary, yay! He got sent home sick from work, though. So we were able to spend the whole day together, except for when I skipped out to attend the rescheduled Homeowner's meeting onsite which was again unsuccessful since we again lacked our quorum. There was this one gay guy who was screaming in our management company's rep's face. It was really bad behavior and really uncalled for. To be continued next year.

Here's Tito J. singing Josh Grobin at our wedding reception, Feb. 17, 2006. There were lots of moist eyes in the house!

So anyway, S and I spent Sat. lounging around and just being together. We watched School for Scoundrels, which was decent. That night we went out to eat and then bought ourselves a co-anniversary present, Jeopardy! for PS2. That is the only video game I enjoy playing with S, and we haven't played it in 2 years since I tend to be obnoxious and beat everyone in sight (well, Sand M.). But we picked it up on sale for $12.99 and played several games, having a blast.

Sunday S went to work and I went on patrol, making one arrest before I left. Poor S missed his wrestling PPV that night b/c I wasn't able to go, and also M. flaked out on him, plus the other M. was still in Hawaii. Instead he took himself to see Ghost Rider and also snuck into Norbit.

Monday I enjoyed a nice holiday off and we spent the day together again. We tried a Mexican restaurant near the house we hadn't been to yet, and took li'l bro shopping. Later we went running with Tito J. More Jeopardy! was won by me last night. All in all, a great weekend for the most part and a great start to our 2nd married year together!
