Life

Well it has been a busy couple of weeks. Starting with the most recent occurrences and working backwards:

*We saw "Marley and Me" and "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" over the weekend in a crazy psycho double feature back to back. Jennifer liked Marley better and I liked Curious better. We both liked both.

We are currently watching Lost and Season 4 of La Femme Nikkita. Lost is in Season 2 and excellent. La Femme Nikita....isn't so good any more. The characters are predictable and stale, and the plot seems to recycle through the same several bits over and over again. I just want it to end, but Jennifer wants to watch it out until the last few episodes of Season 5. 5 More discs to go.

*We did a lot of clean up over the weekend putting Christmas decorations away. Jennifer has acrued a rather impressive array of Christmas Character decorations including Spiderman, Peanuts, Disney, Pooh and a few minor abominations (Bratz, Cabbage Things etc). But for the most part it looks pretty cool.

*Listening to a book called Anathem by Neal Stephson. Its....complicated, but if you like Math or weirdness it is very educational. Its a book I might recommend if you liked 'The DaVinci Code'. It has a plot but it also conveys interesting things about math etc, though in a weird way.

*Trip home from Jenny's Wedding went OK. Broke it up over two days. We greatly enjoyed spending time with the whole family there and it was a shame we weren't able to spend more time with everyone.

I want to see both those movies. Elaine & I are taking the boys to see Bedtime Stories today... I love Adam Sandler so that should be good. I am obsessed with LOST and encourage anyone and everyone to watch it.

That book sounds interesting.

I wish we could have seen more of you too.
