Weekend Update

My weekend was good, although a tad busier than normal. Here's a quick recap, as I have mucho worko to do:

Batman Begins - This movie totally rocks - everything about it was great! The acting, the story, the little details, the filming, everything. The only thing I can complain about is Katie Holmes' character. I mean, she wasn't annoying which is good, but she wasn't remarkable either and you couldn't do anything to make her happy. Otherwise, the movie was outstanding and I have a huge crush on Christian Bale. But that's the mark of a good superhero movie - if you've not fallen in love with the hero during the movie, then... something's not right. Anyway, two thumbs way way up and completely worth the full movie ticket price.

Saturday night - neither of us felt like going out so we didn't! I ordered a pizza, hung out with my puppy dog and watched Gilmore Girls on DVD, then went to bed and read. That is my idea of a perfect Saturday night alone. I have just outgrown "going out" I guess.. I still like to go dancing and all that but I rarely get quiet evenings to myself like that and that is just what I enjoy now. Nobody ever said you had to go out to clubs to be cool.

Sunday - was at church from 8:00 to 12:30... the music was good and the sermon was outstanding. It was so encouraging and I wish everybody in the universe could hear it! Then I met Janine for lunch at Applebee's. I opted to order a sandwich instead of something more pricey so I could get a mudslide for dessert. Last time I checked, mudslides were $4.99. Imagine my surprise when I got my bill and had to pay $17 plus tip for a sandwich, fries I didn't eat, a sweet tea and a mudslide in a small wine glass. The price had gone up to $6.99! That is appalling. Then we went to PetSmart and they had a huge adoptathon going on and puppies were everywhere! Puppies puppies puppies! We managed to not take any home with us but only because both of us are too broke! I went home and tried to take a nap but my existing pets wouldn't allow it. Poor Tigger got fleas again - I don't know where they came from, and he's on Frontline too. I gave him a new treatment of it and then last night I gave him Interceptor which is a pill that will kill all the existing fleas on him. I guess I have to treat my house - I had not seen any around but all of a sudden they were on him. Poor little guy.

So that's pretty much it and now I'm back at work and already feeling overwhelmed, so I better get down to it.

Speaking of adopt-a-thons, there were kittens from the humane society at the county fair last night but I was way too hot and sweaty to think about holding a furrball... just looking at them made me hot.
