Run!!!

So my long weekend started on Friday, every long weekend I get an extra day off from my company. 😉

Anyway I took Brandon in for a hearing test and man was that sound proof room scary! I wish I could have taken a picture but the room was maybe 4×4′ in size and for some reason some of the steel mesh was rusty which gave the box a very creepy feel. To make matters worse, there were three toys with drums which move and is suppose to attract the attention of the kid and boy were those toys scary! Reminds me of a horror movie where when the toy is drumming, you know someone is going to die lol.

Brandon was very scared and struggling the whole time, I felt so bad because he was crying very hard and I could feel his heart pumping fast. 🙁 The good news is he reacted to all the toys and it looks like his hearing is ok. I guess he’s just going to be a late talker, he says a few words but he should be farther ahead right now.

On Saturday I wanted to take things easy because I had an airsoft game to attend in the afternoon so we just went out for an early lunch. Stephen picked me up at around 4:30PM and we were off to Flag Raiders.

So it was a terminator night game and Chris broke up the attendees into small groups so they could run around the field scavenging for the objectives that were placed there prior to the game. Teams would start off with no technology and would need to trade in the items for tech upgrades (lights, NV, etc) and it certainly made for an interesting night. I started the game with just Stephen and Jeremy and frankly it was quite difficult to find anything due to the darkness… It’s alright though we survived and eventually got teched up to use NV. 🙂 On the restart I was put into a team of 5 and we were a lot more successful finding and securing the objectives as there was plenty of firepower to go around.

Later we decided to “hunt” the terminator and man he was hard to kill! We were able to shoot him all over and still couldn’t find his kill switch, good for Jeremy (another one) though he was a good sport!

Ugh I rented out the ARES CQBR to another player and he tripped and fell on it snapping the buffer tube right off. Sigh it’s alright, it was an accident so I’m not upset and am glad that the guy didn’t hurt himself.

Today we didn’t do too much, went out for for a Pho lunch and to get little B’s haircut. It was pretty sad to watch him during the trim as he was crying quite hard. The haircut didn’t even turn out that well but I guess it’s hard when he doesn’t cooperate.

There were also viewings every day so far this long weekend (and another tomorrow) but nothing solid yet… I hope the house sells soon, definitely time to move on.
