Lots of things and so many spelling mistakes

So i went home for the long weekend. Which was a nice break from the next to nothing i do during the week (other then looking for work).

We got there about 6:00pm in the evenning and i went to relax mode right away. I hooked up my PS2. I brought a few games with me, some i was near the others and others i wanted to play. I decided on Silent hill 2 first (i played it before and enjoyed it but never beat it). I started a new game and 8 hours later i beat it. It was a good game but the ending left me wanting more (i found out after i got back it had many endings). So i beat a game, and in only 8 hours, go me. I went to bed after i beat the game.

I awoke the next day with my neice peering over the end of the bed at me. I jumped then greeted with a lazy smile, she yelled and ran out of the room (children). I had a nice home made breakfast waiting for me when i got up (god i love going home). I walked around the house looking at the growth for the year, and sighing the the sad looking raspberry bushes we had (i love raspberries). After an hour or two walk father convinced me to take a trip to the local liqour store (which is about a 15 minute drive away). So I got the keys and drove out, but stopped at my brothers place since i saw he had the tractor. This was a mistake on my part since once he saw me he got me to pick him up some beer at the store as well, so i went drove out there (speeding because they moved the speed limit sign, but i didnt get caught). Once i got back to my brother's he had a big grin on his face, it turns out he wanted me to help him load up a trailer full of gravel by my great uncles place. So i agree, since he was on he tractor is gave me time to return my father's beer and smokes and look for some left older halloween snacks then drive back, only to get there 10 minutes before he got there anyways. So we start filling up the trailer and once we are about half full i ask him, "so how much did you pay for this?" he laughed and told me he didnt. He told me it was his boss' land and he could have it since it was sitting there for the better part of 5 years (so i felt better about that) After we finished my second cousin came over and proceeded with 20 questions (apparently he is a nosey person). After that i went home and had a beer with my father on the deck. He told me some stories about the squirels near by, about how he chased one up a tree and kept him there for a few hours, or how he scared a big grey one up a tree then the squirel proceeded to throw nuts at him. I dont know if i should believe him or not but it was an amusing story or two. That night we watched some shows (some i liked and others i didnt). During the shows i disliked i was able to find time to finish Pheonix Wright (wow finished 2 games).

The next day was the day of my neice's party (In the morning i started Dragon Warrior 7). The party was fun even though it took us an hour and a half to get there. (it should only have taken 30 minutes but we had some driving around we had to do). I was scared she wouldnt like the finding nemo watch i got her, but i got a special thank you for it, so i was whappy. Oh before she openned the presents a bunch of us were watching Shrek 2 (iv seen that movie a dozen times now) and i heard her scream "Daddy there is cake on fork" I for the love me have never heard a child cry because there was cake on thier fork, i had to laugh at that. We left around 6:30 and got home around 8:00 (another long drive back). Mother and i watched Supernaturals and Jericho (sp?) that night, i enjoyed both shows and will have catch more of them.

My last day there was rather un-eventful. Played a lot of DW7 and helped my brother tow his car out of the woods with the tractor. So that sums up my long weekend, i had a lot of fun, a lot of good food, and i actually finished 2 games. Go me.
