Today was the first of three Friday the 13ths in 2012 but I didn't encounter any crazy happenings...I also didn't really leave the apartment. Today was a much needed lazy day as work has been pretty busy lately and my ankle is still bugging me. We are preparing for a major inspection, getting trained on new galleries, and I even had to give a presentation on my time in Hawaii.
Last night I had my first Relay for Life Team Captain Meeting and I was in charge of the agenda and running the meeting; so of course I was up late Wednesday night prepping for it. So this afternoon I cleaned up some of my stuff a bit and took it relatively easy. Tonight I made dinner for my friend Erin (girl who got hit by the car), her husband, and sister. I made one of my all-time favs American chop suey and a salad and I've gotta say it was pretty darn good. She's doing pretty well for being hit by a car; having shattered her knee, separated a shoulder, and cracked two ribs. She got her staples out of her leg and is now just all stitched up but still quite immobile; although she did make a surprise appearance at work yesterday which was great to see.
After dinner and catching up I made my way home and I am now watching Friday the 13th Part VII. This, in case you aren't up on your Vorhees history is the one where a telekenetic teen Tina revives Jason out of the lake and of course the hockey-masked zombie is quite pissed off. He was after all chained to a rock and drowned for 4 years by Tommy Jarvis!
[TEASER ALERT]
The death scenes in this movie are quite classic and the sleeping bag scene alone makes this movie worth watching. Of course it follows the same plot lines of teens hooking up, doing drugs and drinking at Camp Crystal Lake but it's a great movie to watch on Halloween and Friday the 13th and makes up for some of the even crappier ones. And Jason is a serious badass, pretty quick for a dead guy, and can really put an axe through a blonde girls head and toss her across the room when he has to! Ugly as hell though as you get to see his decrepit, cross eyed, I could really use a vacation look at the end of the movie just before Tina channels the powers of Carrie and (almost) blows Jason away. Of course he comes back, throws Tina across the dock where she is then saved by her "also dead" father that she watched die and drown in this same lake as a 10 year old. Gotta love the powers of telekinesis!!!
Happy Friday the 13th everyone!!!
