So Monday is nearly over. I don't really have a whole lot to say, but I thought it would be nice to update this blog. I'll just keep typing and we'll see what comes out. This weekend was pretty fun. We had the department Christmas party Friday night. Food was excellent, as always. Who knew a bunch of nerdy scientists could be such good cooks? We stayed until about 7pm and headed to Mike and Jen's. I love going over there. It's just like family. And their kids are as adorable as they come. Again, food was excellent, as always. I ate a lot this weekend, if you can't tell. We stayed over there until about 2am (really late for me, but the conversation was good). After that Rich and I went home and went to bed.
Saturday, we slept until nearly 11am (ahhh....just like being back in high school). We hung around for a while and then decided to catch the matinee of Casino Royale. Now, I'm not usually a Bond fan, but holy crap I could watch Daniel Craig until my eyeballs fall out. HHHHHOOOOOOTTTTTT! Someone should kiss his parents for me. When he put that tux on...well, I'm just not even gonna go there. Rich thought it was funny. But hey, he got to ogle the Bond girl (which happens to be the reason I think men love these movies so much). I thought no one could reach Sean Connery's Bondness, but I have been corrected.
After the movie, Rich and I stopped by Blockbuster and rented the DaVinci Code. I highly recommend the book. While the movie was enjoyable, anyone who has read the book will find it to be disappointing. But if you're not busy comparing the 2, the movie is pretty good. Nothing exciting happened the rest of the weekend.
We did our usual Sunday routine of grocery shopping and preparing for the coming week. And that was about it. However, I would like to take a moment and send out a big shout out the the NEW ORLEANS SAINTS!!!!! We are so due. Way to kick ass! 9-4! Watch out Carolina, we're coming for ya!
As for today, I have been writing my manuscript and planning out what all I need to accomplish this week. I know that doesn't sound like much, but I get so much more done when I sit down and work out all the details. I don't have to worry that I've forgotten something. Tonight, I'm going to go home, put on some laundry, watch Rachael Ray, run on the treadmill (I have a new program I want to try tonight), and just chill out. Rich is cooking tonight (yea!).
Well, that's about it. Until next time...
