I'm pretty content and exhausted after today. Didn't finish the book I was reading until 3am, and ended up lying there in bed for like a half hour to an hour before finally falling asleep. Got woken up around 7am and rushed to get ready. As soon as I had everything, I made my way over to Hayden's house...well, I did once I received his address halfway to his neighborhood (yeah, I didn't ask for his address, I'm such an idiot). We spent the first little part of the morning playing LittleBigPlanet on Hayden's new PS3 and talked about just any random stuff. After we had enough of that, we decided to hop on the city bus and check out 1UP Games, EB Games, and Gamestop for some cheap games (in that order).
1UP Games proved to be rather expensive, so Hayden decided to grab the games he wanted at the Gamestop in Limeridge Mall instead. As soon as we had the games, Hayden decided to go down to the food court for a snack. He bought each of us a mini burrito thing from Taco Bell. They were filled with really drippy meat, tomatoes, cheese, and probably one more thing but I don't remember what it was. I ended up getting it all over my hand, but that's what tongues are for.
After all that we decided to go pester Nick. Arrived at his house just as he was pulling into the driveway. His friend Colin was there and the four of us hung around his place for a bit before walking out to Colin's house and then coming back immediately after...simply so Colin could change from jeans into shorts. Then we hung around Nick's place a few minutes more and I grabbed my copy of LittleBigPlanet Game of the Year Edition back from him and got the $10 he owed me. We capped off the afternoon with Slurpees (I bought for Hayden since he bought me the burrito thing) and we parted our different ways on the way back to our separate destinations.
Dinner at Hayden's house was pretty nerve-wracking until his uncle left the table about 5 minutes into eating. Then it was just Hayden, his grandmother, and I attempting to tame and eat the wild beast of a meal that is spaghetti. I turned down everything except a bottle of water and the main course as I had already had the large Slurpee, and my stomach gets a bit weird when I'm uneasy around someone such as Hayden's uncle. When we finished up we went out to the backyard and did some beanbag tossing with his little cousin. Well, it was more like "watching Hayden spin his little cousin around and wrestle him" than just ordinary beanbag tossing.
Everyone but the two of us had to leave for a soccer game, so we both went down to the basement and talked for a bit before finally deciding to pass the time with the only other multiplayer game Hayden had that wasn't LBP or whatever that terrible sports game he had was.
We played Call of Duty: Black Ops.
It was actually really enjoyable. I don't know why. Maybe because I was actually decent at it for once. We won most of the games and I even warmed up to Hayden's stupid grippy things that he dished out $5 for just so he could have curved triggers. We played on the internet for most of the time, but at the end of that we did a couple rounds of zombies. Then his grandmother came back, so we had to pack-up. I got a lift home, and Hayden gave me one of his Bluetooth headsets and I let him borrow Fallout 3.
Overall it has been a good day (although tiring) and I really feel a ton better after getting out of the house and hanging out with Hayden. All I've done since I've gotten home is put away my loose change and games and stuff and set up my laptop to do this blog post. I think I'm gonna call it early tonight since I'm so tired and had a full day of not-so-boring stuff. Pizza Pops are always a good late-night snack, so I'm just gonna scarf down a couple of those and head off to bed right after. My favourite earphones seem to have decided to work in both ears tonight, so that's a plus. I think I'll just play Minecraft or do some social networking while I listen to music and await my precious pizza-stuffed delicacies' decent to room temperature.
Oh, and just to be clear, my Dad decided to pick my brother and I up a day later (now Friday night) so I have an extra night of talking and whatnot. and I may delay the vlog to a day later than planned because I have that extra little bit of time and still need to decide on what all to do for it exactly.
So I'm gonna go make those pizza things now. I'll probably post a short blog in the morning or something because I don't feel like I've spilled all my thoughts, but I feel too tired to post everything now. Seeya!
