Dinner and DVD nite

On Sunday we'd thought of having a dinner-and-DVD nite on Tuesday night. Reason? Sunday was too impromptu, and Tuesday was the 28th, the last day of February. Nah. It was mainly because I haven't watched Zoolander before and people were going on about it being a very good comedy, plus I thought me mum was returning from her holiday on March 1st (last checked proved me wrong, she'll be back on March 4th, phew).

Well, I decided to make it a small one and just called the guys only (considering the turnout I could say it was a GC occasion). All in all we had 4 large thin-crust Domino's Pizza (courtesy of their very valuable Gold Card): Crispy Chicken and Beefy Crunch (promo pizzas), Extravaganzza (personal favvie) and Super Deluxe to be shared by goodsheet, ladthelad, Lemon and me while watching Zoolander. Oh yes with guest Russell/Rascal who was adorably sleepy.

MrWho came by after Zoolander (very very good, especially if you're Malaysian with sense of humour) and after we'd cleaned out all four pizzas (so sorry!), and with goodsheet and ladthelad having to leave that just left the three of us eeeeeviiiiilllll people to watch 'Long Khong' or 'Long Thong' or summat - Thai horror movie. Arrr. Wasn't really scary or anything, in fact none of the gruesome bits that appeared on the VCD cover was in the movie. Problem laid in subtitles with poor visibility and movie direction.

Methinks things were just 'okay' for tonight. Why? Well...a poor host, for one. Furniture that doesn't complement dinner-and-DVD, for another. IMO appropriate furniture would be - distance between couch and table: within arms' reach so one doesn't have to get up; table large enough to accomodate 2-3 large pizzas plus place for drinks and at comfortable height. And doing a movie on weekdays are sometimes iffy because people may have work pressures and won't be able to stay late.

More to come? Hopefully, and that it'll get better.
