A Nice Relaxing SDD

SDDs are really good, because you get days off school. That's a simple one. I also started that sentence, thought of a clever ending, looked up to the TV, and then promptly forgot it. Anyway. Fill in a humorous saying there. Moving on. And I know it's technically a late post, but I refuse to make a label denoting that fact, for the reason that weekends are made for post procrastination.

I woke up to the sound of the Kyle and Jackie O Show starting, meaning it was 6 in the morning. At this point I went, 'ohhh...' and tried to get back to sleep. Around 7, I said to myself, 'I'm never getting back to sleep, and I got up. I watched TV for a bit, and after Mum and EJ left for school and work, Dad and I went to Wattle Grove Shops to get breakfast. When we got home, after a long and time-consuming time with me trying to eat a cheese and bacon roll, Dad and I watched 'The Curious Case of Benjamin Button' over Foxtel. That is a good movie, I liked it. The only problem was that it reminded me too much of 'Forrest Gump.' Don't get me wrong, I loved 'Forrest Gump,' but when a movie is too reminiscent of another movie, you get a bit apprehensive (I apologise for the long words, that was the only way I could convey what I meant. And even then, it wasn't too clear).

Around 12:30, when the movie ended, I had some lunch, then got to work finishing off Thursday's blog post. I then started work on my assignment, and specifically, on transcribing a scene from the original Macbeth into a school cricket team. My favorite character: Mark Booth, who is a transformed Macbeth. Ben is Banquo, Rhys is Ross, Andy is Angus (though I might not change the name), and the 3 Witches are 3 Year 12 girls (I couldn't resist. No offence, but it just turned out that way. They're bimbos, so they talk, like, like this. But I'm giving away my project). When EJ got home, I played some DS, and went on my laptop. Then, until 11 (no, really), I just played DS, read on my laptop, read some of my magazine, and watched TV. I also cooked dinner, which I don't enjoy, and also seems to be becoming a common occurrence.

Now, I feel like a list. How about... things I do probably do too much of but that I don't care about:
*Questionable grammar: See the above sentence. I'm having trouble understanding it, and I wrote it. I don't do it in exams, but I do do it in blogs and conversation.
*Long words: I don't do it intentionally, just because they are the best words to use. Sometimes I will mean to use brobdingnagian verbiage so as to confound those who are ignorant of its meaning (long words to confuse people who don't know what I'm saying).
*Talk incessantly: Sometimes I can go on and on without actually saying anything, or alternatively, saying too much. I need to stop. I won't.
*Zone out: Especially if I'm looking at somebody or something. People think I'm weird... er.

Now to comments, quickly, before commenter 3 breaks something:
*Shafi: By 'Jaws' and 'Traintracks,' I meant for nicknames about my braces.
*Shafi: Don't ask me; ask them. I could say the same about you.
*Anonymous: It's all to do the weekends, Anonymous Commenter, the weekends! I blame society!

Now to finish, or Commenter 3 will hunt me down. Saturday's post will also be late. Not for any particular reason, except that it's a long weekend. Sorry, C3!

I'm enjoying the long weekend,
AB
