What a great Saturday… The morning started off slow but we went out for lunch, I had won ton noodles from a local food court which are my favorite in Scarborough. 🙂 While Maggie & her mom were still eating, I ducked out for a hair cut and after I was done it was Brandon’s turn. As expected he cried, cried and cried a lot, it was kind of cute but at the same time sad. I wish I could save him but we put off cutting his hair for over 3 weeks now and it was pretty long.

Later after B’s nap in the afternoon Jason, Jessie & Logan came over to have a play date with Brandon. At first the kids were pretty hostile towards each other as they were competing for the same toys. After dinner though they loosened up and played together pretty well. Logan talks a lot more than Brandon does and it was cute to watch them interact and play with the trains together. At certain times it sounded like they were having some high pitched baby voice conversations and there were a lot of smiles and laughs.

Jason and I left after dinner to meet the guys at Ultimate Airsoft, Chris was bringing his gf Keiko to play her first game and a bunch of us decided to go to support her. We arrived at around 6:15PM, Stephen was there and Mario, Jeremy 1 & Jeremy 2 showed up about 10 minutes later. The first few skirmishes we played, we dominated so badly that the ref split us up to be more fair. The game was more balanced afterwards and everyone had a pretty good time. As the night progressed Eric showed up, just after we were talking smack about Chris, he shows up with Keiko and Qlong. I asked the ref to allow us to play together as we rarely get to play together these days and lol it was another slaughter (even though the teams had an even number of players ;))

There was a small incident where one of the opposing players was pretty slow to call shots so as good airsofters we fired for effect. He complained and I told him that we’re playing a game where we’re shooting projectiles at each other, f you don’t want to get shot up then the easy option is not to play. Later Jason and I were clearing out the hurt locker area and nailed him quite a bit, again though he was slow to acknowledge his hit and just stood in the way afterwards. He remarked that we almost hit him in the balls to which I replied in a not so nice manner to get out of the way.

The last game of the night was a zombie game and while I had fun, I also ran into a low door frame that knocked my PVS-14 off. 🙁 It hit the ground and broke at the battery housing but luckily the tube is still working. Chris will help me get a new housing but sigh it sucks and now my precious NV is down so I can’t walk around in the dark at home. Good thing the mil sims are all done, by the start of the outdoor season I will be good to go.

Today well is still ongoing, I watched the last race of the 2012 F1 season at Interlagos Brazil and man it was super exciting. Things didn’t end well for my favorite driver, Lewis Hamilton as he was involved with a race incident (not his fault) that disabled his car sigh he’s had some terrible reliability/luck issues this year and had things gone his way he would have been challenging for the driver’s championship.

I’ll figure things out for the rest of the day, I’m pretty sore from the game as I pushed pretty hard. I guess I’ll just play with Brandon the rest day and call it early as I’m tired. 🙂

So let’s start at the beginning shall we…

On Saturday morning Cindy called and told Maggie she’s going to drop by with about 20 minutes notice, I was kind of peeved at that because I hate surprise drop ins but whatever. I asked Maggie if that meant we were going to lunch, while she assured me we were not I knew we it would happen. At around 12PM they decided to go for lunch (as I predicted) and Maggie seemed surprised that all the near by restaurants were busy and would take a long time to seat a party of 8. We lucked out at the second restaurant, it was a dim sum place and it only took about 15 minutes to get us seated.

A bit later in the afternoon I left home to pick up Jason & Mario so we could go play airsoft at UA and when we arrived at around 3-3:30PM, it was already quite busy. There were lots of newbs so it was pretty easy hunting over all and as the day progressed more and more people showed up. I got to grenade countless people with the Madbull AGX attached to my PTW CQBR and that was a lot of fun. I was testing Jason’s lower and it performed flawlessly for me, I went through over a thousand rounds so hopefully it’s good once and for all. Sigh for such an expensive gun you figure Systema would get its motors right, if it goes down again I’m going to tell him to just get a FCC like Stephen.

The Spanish guys that Mario and I slaughtered a few weeks ago showed up later and as usual when they were hit they complained like there was no tomorrow… I try very hard never to complain about being shot (even if I get hit after I’m dead) as we’re playing a game where we’re shooting projectiles at each other. It’s also not my fault that they don’t know how to pie the corner properly but whatever I enjoyed killing them.

At around 7:30PM the owners turned off the lights so the three of us busted out our PVS-14s though it wasn’t a huge advantage because there were too many people so we couldn’t stalk. Still I found it a bit frustrating/comical when I was shooting one of the Spanish guys (I know who they are based on their gear) while he was engaging someone else and not in cover from my angle yet wasn’t calling the shots. Not only could I see him clearly with the PVS-14, when I had him lit up with my PEQ box and could see the BBs bounce off him his body and hands (he shook his hands after being shot)…

We left shortly afterwards, even though we were not at UA long, the games are always fast and action packed so it’s quite a work out.

On Sunday the weather was awesome so I took advantage of it and cleaned out my car, mowed the lawn for the last time in 2012 and raked the leaves. I also played with Brandon a lot, hehe I just love how sweet his voice is but then again all young children have cute high pitched voices.

Other than that I didn’t do anything else but relax which was very nice, heh too bad I have to go back to work today as I wouldn’t mind another day to be lazy. 😉
