The weekend..

Its here. The Weekend.

Today started with an early morning fire call. Semi rollover on Hiway 1 east of Strathmore just east of Hiway 21. Driver fell alseep and went for the ride of his life.

I met my friend Dirk for lunch today at the Old Spagetti Factory. Our mission to bribe the bartender into teaching us how to make margarita's for our upcoming mexican themed ladies night out fundraiser. Mission complete. Not only did he teach us, he gave us 5 gallons of margarita pre-mix for our slurpee machine...

We were so impressed with our success, that we decided that going back to work would be a bad idea. We ended up at Cinescape at Eau Claire market to terminate some bad guys in the virtual sense. I did make it back to work eventually.

Aside from the regular work stuff, I spent this afternoon searching for a good recipie to prepare for Dirk and his lovely wife tommorow night.

I found this.

I've lost the original link from where I got the recipie, but that's ok. I'm not sure that copywrite applies here.

I'm going to make this meal my own by adding love.

I'm out for the weekend.. I have to get my skates sharpenedas I play game # 2 tonight in the east of Calgary recrational mens hockey leauge. Nothing at stake, just some old guys reliving their youth. If your interested, we are playing at INDUS at 21:45.
