As a surprise birthday present for Peter (whose birthday is Nov. 27th) I took him to a civil war reenactment (I KNOW! I can't believe they hold those in California either!). Peter LOVED it. The whole week he thought I was bringing him to an autograph signing for Patrick Stewart (Trekkie) because he thought that I was going to do the same surprise I did with David. So when we drove to bumtown country he was SO confused. Ha ha... but the look on his face when he saw what it was was so worth the trip.
Well... Pete's birthday isn't the only one in Nov. Darryl's is too (Nov. 6th) so when his came I decided to throw him a surprise party. I figured since he was leaving this month (left yesterday for home for possibly FOREVER*sob*) I would bring all his California friends to him so they could say goodbye.
He was pretty syked about it too. He had NO IDEA!!!! I took him to Roscoe's Chicken & Waffles (OMG David and Angel, I have to bring you to this place) and we went home. And SURPRISE!!! :) It was awesome. Unfortunately I have no picture of his face during the actually surprising because I was behind him. :(
Anyway- like the cool dorks we are- on thursday we lined up for the first screening of Harry Potter: Goblet of Fire. We went to the midnight show at Grauman's Chinese (the theatre with all of the hands and feet in cement). OMG OMG OMG OMG. THE SINGLE BEST THEATRE EXPERIENCE I HAVE EVER HAD. And- in my opinion- the best EVER Harry Potter flick yet.
We were in the front of the line (it went around like 2 blocks).
Wingardian Leviosa!
Me and Darryl :)
But, alas, my weekend was not as fun as the days before. Darryl left! :( :( :( Because of immigration laws and the film industry Darryl has gone back to Grenada (HOPEFULLY temporarily) and for the first time in 4 years I must sleep in a cold bed. :( :( *sob*
Darryl packing through the night.
Fortunately my roommates are awesome. Darryl left in the morning and I couldn't come home from the airport (because I had to go to work) but I didn't mention this too anyone at home, so halfway through the day I get a call on my cellphone from Andy, Peter, and Erick WORRIED that I had driven my car off a cliff or something. And when I finally did get home they were SO SWEET!!!! Aww... it was almost hard being depressed, because they were so concerned. I love them all so much.
*Sigh* Life after Darryl... is boring. Today I spent my day mooping around the house (although I went to the Samonases for a early Thanksgiving dinner, pics later). I found a weird formation of what might be spider eggs on my office window and I showed it to everyone.
Peter was nice enough to get rid of it for me.
My life without Darryl, though hard, is infinitely easier because of the amazing people I am lucky to live with.
Okay, so now I'll leave you with something funny. This is Peter's bike. Peter found his bike one day with a broken tire, so he decided he was going to fix it. How did he fix it? He CUT IT UP AND TAPED IT.
*sigh*
Goodnight Guys! I miss you Darryl!
