Weekend In Review

Bars and Nightlife

I went to F15teen on Friday night for a friend’s 30th birthday party. The place was packed at 10 when we got there but I am positive it was all people for the bday party. The place gradually thinned out by 1 so went to Lucas Park which was also only about half full. I am not sure how “15″ has all of a sudden dropped off the social map. We tried to go a couple weekends ago and they did not have the upstairs even open. I don’t expect that place to stay in business much longer. Maybe Lure is stealing all their business.

We decided to go to Pepper Lounge on Saturday. We were debating between going to Rich’s party and downtown. Downtown won based on the fact that I despise house parties. It was a great crowd. It reminded me of the past when that place was the place to go. Mike and I decided we will go there for NYE based on the good time we had. We did walk in El Borracho before we went to Pepper. It had a good crowd but it was opening night.

Movies

I watched two movies on Sunday. The first being The Big Lebowski. It may be hard to believe, especially since all my friends love it, but I had never seen this movie. I thought I had a great chance to watch it since it was on the HD Movie channel. I did find the movie pretty funny but not sure why it has such a cult following.

I watched Batman Begins later Sunday afternoon. I had never seen this one either and thought it was necessary since Dark Knight is #1 in my Netflix cue. I also have amazingly not seen this one either. I really enjoyed Batman Begins. I thought it was a great movie. I cant believe I waited 3 years to see this movie. I can’t wait to see Dark Knight.

Shopping

Mike and I went out and did some shopping on Saturday. I took Mike since he seems like he does this every weekend. I was basically looking for accessories for my place along with a bench. We went to Home Decorators first. I have been eyeing that place for a while since I can get a 50% discount. I did like this place. They had some pretty large artwork that I will probably go back for. I did see a bunch of other stuff too. We then went to Weekends Only after that. I was surprised to see that they had some cool metal art which I had to get. We also went to Home Depot. I got a couple small projects that I am looking to do this winter break. They are running blue lights on top of my kitchen cabinets, installing a tiled backsplash in my kitchen, and installing a stainless steel kick panel on my center island. I couldn’t find the stainless steel nor could I find any tiles that I liked. I will continue to look.
