This weekend was smashing. Jenia's birthday was on Saturday, where we enjoyed the fruit and pirate theme. Jenia and Steve took a liking to the imported Lemoncello vodka and laughed at invisible jokes. We saw War of the Worlds, Vinman sat in a movie theater seat, It was a most splendid time. The following day Jenia and I headed up to Orlando to spend the 3rd & 4th with the Fatone clan. We stayed at Janine and Philip's new home, it's so cute. On Sunday night, Janine and Philip decided to take Jenia, myself and Nikoles to Oldtown, where we could go on rides, play in the arcade, grab some snacks,etc. Oldtown is in the heart of Kissimmee, where Nikoles lives with his mother and 3 siblings. He was all excited, we didn't know what we were in for. As we park the car, Jenia looks around and says to me in a Russianized Puerto Rican accent, "There's a lot of mommy's and papi's here". Nikoles being of sound mind and Mexican heart punched Jenia in the ribs and said "Never say that again, I mean it, it's not funny." We nearly pissed ourselves.
Speaking of relieving ourselves, in the arcade Nikoles grabbed his ass and screamed "I have to crap!" We all ran out hysterically looking for a bathroom amidst the small shops and pubs. He ran like big bird with a diaper on into the women's bathroom with Janine. Once again, we nearly pissed ourselves.
Finally, we head back to the arcade to cash in the tokens and tickets we had won for Nikoles, to find that instead of the small plastic baseball hat or 18 midget tootsie rolls, he wants a mood ring. Jenia warned him that "mood rings are for sissies, " and Nik patted Jenia on the shoulder and said, "Come on John, no one's gonna notice". Once more, nearly pissed ourselves.
