I&#8217;m feeling rather guilty and annoyed at myself on one hand but on the other hand, but on the other hand I <i>did<\/i> go to the gym 5 times last week &#8211; plus with boarding in a week&#8217;s time I think January 2008 will be an overall &#8220;WOOH&#8221; as far as losing weight \/ getting fit&#8217;s concerned.<\/p>\n<p>Oh yeah, plus this weekend was great fun!  I was at Lev and Jess&#8217;s place in Laaandan and had a great laff as ever &#8211; Lev and I played an awful lot of Mario Vs Sonic on the Wii and finished many a 4x100m relay or 400m hurdles by falling onto Lev&#8217;s sofa and trying to get our breath back for a minute or two.  Mental, knackering fun :-)<\/p>\n<p>We also saw the excellent and very harsh <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt0292963\/\">Before the Devil Knows You&#8217;re Dead<\/a>, which is <i>well<\/i> worth a watch &#8211; superb performances from all involved and a real emotive thriller all the way through.  Great stuff, and it also made us think of how funny it would be if the credits had &#8220;We Are Family&#8221; played over them.  Not really sure why, it just seemed so inappropriate to be hilarious at the time.  See the film and imagine it playing over them and you&#8217;ll see what I mean :-)<\/p>\n<p>Aside from that we did some recording of some bits and pieces for a potential upcoming project (using this amazing professional studio):<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/squage\/2190347592\/in\/photostream\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2041\/2190347592_aed1e03195.jpg?v=0\" alt=\"2008-11-12 Professional Recording Studio\" title=\"2008-11-12 Professional Recording Studio\" border=\"0\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>What with Squage being left at home for the weekend, Lev couldn&#8217;t do a SQUAGE FACE so had to find an alternative:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/squage\/2189561981\/in\/photostream\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2179\/2189561981_3fb7459ef8.jpg?v=0\" alt=\"2008-11-13 OPTIMASH PRIME FACE!\" title=\"2008-11-13 OPTIMASH PRIME FACE!\" border=\"0\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Basically, twas a great weekend with lots of catching up and chatting about all sorts &#8211; always a pleasure to see you two :)<\/p>\n<p>Ok, off to do some ironing&#8230; if that&#8217;s not living the dream I don&#8217;t know what is (<i>NEWS ALERT: Pat has no idea what living the dream is &#8211; Squage<\/i>).
