So the weekend at ~samw61’s beach house with he, ~summerfae and ~mariealice was THE SHIZ!!!! We all came back uber relaxed!

Things that occurred:

- Super sexy totally HAWT guys who speed at a million km p/hr over the speed limit in red cars with their high beams on and doof-doof music up too loud make us totally wanna jump them and get in their pants. Because obviously they MUST have giant penis’ if their THAT cool.

- Due to over-tiredness we spend a hilarious 15 minutes or so in the sumermarket looking for sugar. Sam attempts to ignore us while Alice, Liz and I find the fact that the flavoured milk is labelled ‘SUPA Shake’ the funniest thing we’ve ever seen.

- We get to The Shack and unpack the car, Sam is manly and stoaks the fire.

- We try VERY hard to work out how to play my POTC Cup Game (remember the game they play on the Flying Dutchman with the dice?) due to the involvement of maths and lack of sleep, we fail miserably. The fact Alice can win while she’s IN THE BATHROOM proves this.

- Several epps of Black Books are watched.

-Sam spends a few hours in the coldest room in The Shack talking to ~Laura-Jayne21 (whos birthday is today, GO WISH HER A HAPPY B'DAY!!) over the phone. We know every time we hear him swear that the signal has dropped out (we WERE a long way into the middle of nowhere after all!)

- Alice and I fall asleep in the middle of a conversation.

- We awake to the fire having gone out and Sam being manly stoaks it again.

- It is discovered that we are idiots and left the car boot open all night (Sam makes sure the battery hasnt run down and no widelife as set up shop in the car)

- We journey to the corner shop and back, along the way we found a wild computer chair living amongst the foliage, and that the dirt track The Shack is off has apparently suddenly sprouted gravel for the first 3 meters.

- A lazy afternoon was had napping, learning lines and playing hang-man.

-Off to see Batman: The Dark Knight.

-I remember why I FUCKING ADORE Heath Ledger so much and spent most of the movie on the verge of tears. (Why So Serious?)

- Sam has a chest infection and refuses to go to the doctor about it when we get back (how manly )

- Pizza is had and we discover the supermarket has STRAWBERRY MOUSSE!

- A night of watching Black Books is ahead. We also attempt to watch my pirated copy of ‘Brick’ but the quality sucks so we decide its sleep time for us... 4hrs later we give up on trying to sleep as we are still too talkative and devour the mousse.

- The following conversation happens: Me: “SEX FROM ABOVE!” ([link]) Liz: “Well I shall have to position myself!”

- Sam, Liz and I wake up to the fire having gone out and Sam being manly stoaks it yet again. Alice is still unconscious.

- I make Sam and Liz watch ‘My Neighbour Totoro,’ Alice claims she was listening with her eyes closed the whole time.

- We wake Alice up with a rousing rendition of ‘THEY’RE TAKING THE HOBBITS TO ISENGARD!’

- This time we were bigger idiots and left the light on IN the car. (Sam check battery again)

- We attempt to make potato wedges/chips and explore the bush around The Shack.

- CLEAN UP TIME!

- I slice the palm of my hand open pretty damn good on a shard of glass cleaning. (SEE MUM?! Cleaning IS bad for my health!!) It bleeds EVERYWHERE and entirely too much for the size of the cut. Band-aids and Detol is hauled back out of the car as it has already been packed.

- Stop at the supermarket again for supplies for our long and arduous journey home, (read: chocolate mousse, cheesimite scrolls and mixed lollies) we also buy cereal for the charity cage thing at the front.

- We spend the whole trip home trying to ask kids who have tvs in their cars (there is A LOT we feel old!!) what their watching via a carefully crafted sign by Alice. We are given the Glare of Doom by a mother who seems to think we are scum because we play with inferior cave-man toys (paper and pencils as apposed to the tvs)

- After loosing interest in what the kids in the van next to us are watching we decide to inform everyone who comes close enough to Alice’s window (through yet another carefully crafted sign) that ‘WE’RE TAKING THE HOBBITS TO ISENGARD!’ with an arrow pointing to the back seat where Liz and I are finishing off the mousse.





I will be back later with a total SPOILER gush over Heath Ledger as The Joker.

Promise!

Chuck Norris Fact of the ...uh... moment...:
"The original draft of The Lord of the Rings featured Chuck Norris instead of Frodo Baggins. It was only 5 pages long, as Chuck roundhouse-kicked Sauron’s ass halfway through the first chapter." - from ~VeraAda
