This was written around 2 am in the morning, pre-sleep, but something was up with the servers, so I couldn’t post. *shakes fist*

A relaxing Day 1 of the weekend. Didn’t do a lot, but what I did was fun. After taking Jess to work, I came home and waited for Dee to come down. The original plan was to play a little EverQuest and then watch some boxing…. and then check out Christopher Walken on the too-often-lame Saturday Night Live. Everything was fine up to the “play a little EverQuest” part – Jess’ puter didn’t want to cooperate, so most of the playing time was spent trying to get her system to do what it was s’posed to. We finally settled on Typing of the Dead; this was a good choice. Angie came over a little later and mopped the floor with us; we used to call her “Machine Gun” because of her typing speed. And, I missed a perfect opportunity to once again prove my dominance at SoulCalibur. *FEH*

The boxing matches were good. The first fight (Jirov vs. Letterlough) was called in the 8th round – Jirov won by TKO. The main event (Barrera vs. Sanchez) was stopped in the 6th round – Barrera completely worked Sanchez over. According to Dee, it was a very good technical fight. It was like watching a doctor at work. There was no emotion. There was no malice. He simply went in and did his job.

And then, there was SNL. I haven’t watched that show, with any regularity, for a couple seasons. I just don’t find the new cast very interesting. *shrug* But, if there is a host that I like or a special event, I’ll watch it. Mr. Walken qualifies. There was even a cameo featuring Kevin Nealon on the “Weekend Update” sketch as an added bonus; I think that he and Dennis Miller were the two best “anchors” that they’ve had in a long while. Overall, the show was pretty good.

Dee left shortly after SNL and Ang left a little while later. Tomorrow: Oktoberfest at Snowbird. Of course, that will be AFTER watching the Ravens’ game; tomorrow – technically “today” – is the start of the 2001 football season. That’s right, seventeen weeks of National Football League goodness. ~bliss~ Good thing that the Ravens play early (1 pm Eastern/11 am here) and the Dolphins play late (8:30 pm / 6:30 pm) – I can watch the hometown team wreck shop on Da Bears, go to Oktoberfest, and then go to the inlaws’ and watch the Dolphins work the Titans over. Life is good.

That about wraps it up from here. Going to finish watching The X-Files, possibly play a little EQ, and then call it a night.

Peace.
