I Drink Your Milkshake

After a VERY crappy two weeks of not feeling well, my sister came to visit Brandon and me (mostly me….lets be honest). She took the bus Friday night from NYC and got dropped off in D.C. We picked her up and had a very conversational car ride back to the apartment. We talked about our weekend plans and of course…Project Runway.

After we got back to the house we chit-chatted and then went to bed. The next morning we had breakfast and watched LDS General Conference. After the morning session we got ready and went to the movie theater. I wanted to see Fame but Brandon didn’t so I was glad that Shilo came out and was able to see it with me. Shilo and I both had expired free movie tickets and thought we could be tricky and use them anyway. Because of Shilo’s sly skills we weren’t denied the free tickets and got to walk right in. Once we sat down in the best seats of the theater, Shilo left to get something to drink. She put her purse on her seat to save it (like all smart people do) and then some fat girls decided to sit RIGHT next to where her purse was. Not cool. So upon Shilo’s arrival, I motioned for her to come sit on the other side of me so that she didn’t have to sit between me and fat girl. As soon as I moved Shilo’s purse from the originial seat, fat girl plopped her purse on that seat. Rude much? And to top it off, these girls were loud and had annoying cackles which lasted throughout the movie.

Other than that incident, Fame was a pretty good movie for being free. Shilo and I, of course, left the theater dancing.

On our way home we decided to have dinner so we went home, picked up Brandon and walked across the street to eat at this mexican restaurant.

I was super excited about it, but apparently Brandon and Shilo were not. I ordered a chimichanga covered in cheese and it was delightful. Shilo and Brandon ordered “salads” and wondered why they didn’t like the restaurant. You don’ t order salads at a mexican restaurant! But desert made up for their meals…3 words: Fried Ice Cream. Yummy!!!!

After we walked home we watched There Will Be Blood. Shilo had not seen it and it is one of my favorite movies so I had to make her watch it. Then after the movie we watched the SNL parody “I Drink Your Milkshake”. A must see. We then watched last weeks SNL where Jenny Slate dropped the F bomb and then we watched this weeks SNL…which could have been so much better considering Lady Gaga and Madonna were on.

We also played some Rock Band. There were some hilarious moments, like Shilo singing Chop Suey by System of a Down, and the night ended with me singing Move Along while Brandon and Shilo were getting “failed out” of the drums and guitar.

Sunday morning Shilo and I decided to make biscuits and gravy….worst….idea…..ever. Our gravy tasted like glorified flour mush. But thanks to Shilo’s craftiness, we made it edible. We watched some more of the LDS General Conference and then Shilo and I thought it would be fun to learn the “Single Ladies” dance…..second…..worst……idea….ever. We gave up a few 16 counts into it. I blame it on the lack of a dance studio and leotard.

Now it is 9:30 on Sunday night and we just got back from taking my sister back to the bus station. I miss her already. I am so glad that she came down to visit with me and lift my spirits. Ya’ll should be so jealous that you don’t have a sister like Shilo.

Right Back What Is Wrong….Move Along.
