What a Weekend

We've had a very fully weekend. Friday after work, Matt and I cleaned the basement. Which mainly consisted of taking the pile of crap in the middle and making neater piles of it, in proper categories, along the sides. Also breaking down tons of boxes. Having done that, we went out to dinner with my mommy at this fun little Mexican restaurant called Los Arcos that had pretty good food and a killer Mariachi band. Stomachs full, we pressed on and went to see The Incredibles at the cheapies. Excellent movie. Loved loved loved it. Will buy it on DVD ASAP.

Saturday morning, we woke up and went over to Mike & Holly's. Holly and I sewed some pillows and Mike and Matt did errr …. something. I know it involved a window and a beam, but beyond that I am confused.

Then we had to book it to the grocery store to pick up dinner makings and then book it back home to get it a bit more …err … ship shape before the evening. Because last night was … Cousins Night. All of my younger cousins (4 of them, raining from 4-14) came over. We made quesadillas and milkshakes, watched Napoleon Dynamite, played Pictionary, and watched Bill & Ted's excellent adventure. This morning, we got up and went to Gunther Toody's and had diner breakfast. It was … OK. I certainly liked it less than when I went there as a kid. Then the number of cousins diminished by half and we went back to our house and started to play Worms.

Near the end of the first round, we looked over and May had started shaking violently. That lasted for about a minute and then she was sort of … out of it. Obviously, she'd had a seizure. So we took her to emergency vet and they looked at her, but couldn't do much for her. So we brought her home.

Now we're keeping an eye on her and worrying about her. She's such a good doggie friend.
