Did you all have a nice weekend? I sure hope so. It poured down in Southern Cal this past Friday late night, it was so loud it woke us up. It doesn't happen here in the South Bay too often.
I saw my folks the 2nd week in a row. The reason being is that my aunt flew out from Melbourne, Australia. She used to always fly in with my sister Medina, but now she flies alone. She's like 72 but still in great shape. She doesn't speak a lick of English so we're glad that she made her way safely. My mum made lunch and we all just ate at the house. Might as well cuz grandma isn't very mobile. It's a delight to see them together talking. When I left, I asked my mum and my aunt if they want their pictures taken, but my aunt said next time around, since their youngest sister will be there next week, for I can take pictures of the 4 'girls' altogether - my grandma and her 3 girls. My mum is almost 75 I believe, and she was only 6 when her dad passed away. It just amazes me when I think about my grandma's ordeal... Where she raised the 3 girls all by herself during war times. The stuff that she had to go through in that life and time. I can't wait 'til next weekend!
What else took place this weekend!?! Hmm... We sorta cleaned out the garage once again. Rearranged the filing boxes, emptied some out and put 'em here and there. I came across so much stuff that I've kept from years ago. We have a hope chest, well, more like a hope 'box' really that I have tons of cards from peeps and friends and families from yeeears ago... I have over about 1000 cards and postcards I reckon. Some of them with names so vague, I don't quite remember. "Tricks maybe?", I asked myself. Why do I keep them, I do not know.
So anyway, I found this bag of buttons. Here's a better image of them! As you can tell, way back when, you know who my 2 fave bands were! Not sure what I'm gonna do with these buttons. Sorry Jef, no Bananarama's. :-) You want any of these? heh! If we do get a chance to meet next month, I should wear them out on my homemade Sex Pistols' God Save The Queen denim jacket! Owait, that's right, my mum threw it away for no good reason!! @#$%&!!
Well that was pretty much my weekend, not including the hours that I spent playing on my PS2. Do you love RPG games? I've been playing Grandia III, it isn't the best, but it's just a total time-waster. But aren't all the video games? ahaha! I think next I'll start on the .hack/G.U. series. Like THAT you need to know! :-)
Say, before I leave, is anybody else on Facebook asides from the peeps that I'm already linked to? Just curious. I know, I'm so 'highschool!' :-) But I still think it's one of the better places to upload your photos and share with others! Laterz!

RPGs!! Ooh! :P It's been a while since I've played any games on the PC / PS; I know for sure that I'd get myself addicted and end up with shorter weekends if I indulge myself again, hehe
Nice collection of buttons you got there :)

What a great story about your grandmother. You definitely need to take pictures.
Obviously, we know where the rain that was meant for Hotlanta went.
Oddly enough, I have one of those Go-Go's button. It's weird how our musical taste it so similar; we must have been separated at birth. And I've got your Bananarama button right here!
Actually, I'm on Facebook, but I haven't done a thing with it.

Sounds like you had a great weekend, and am glad you got to see your Aunt! No rain here. But we're having beautiful Fall weather. I hope it stays this way for a long time!

We've had a lot of rain as well. Thanks, you know what for! Big hugs, and your music is still bringing a smile to my face even in the hard times.

My only question is:
What were you two doing in bed together. Shocking, scandalous and naughty!
Love the buttons!
