Re: How was your weekend?
Highs? Got the tree up.
Lows? Didn't clean.
Eat/make anything good? An Auntie Anne's pretzel at the mall really hit the spot.
Watch anything good? I watched the Matt Damon Bourne movies and MIB3 this weekend.
Read anything good? Still working on Celebrity in Death, hoping to finish it today.
FFCs, vents, AWs, etc? Minor Vent: I really wish my husband would put his dishes into the dishwasher. I spend 10 minutes putting away the clean dishes, loading the dirty ones from the sink into the machine, and 20 minutes later come back to find his crap in the sink. It drives me nuts.
What are you looking forward to this week? It being over.
Lows? My family went to Chili's for dinner on Saturday and I didn't go because DH wouldn't be home in time (trying to be a good wife and hang out with him instead) and he proceeded to fall asleep after being home for only 30 minutes. I know he was tired so I understand but I should've gone to dinner lol
Eat/make anything good? We went to CPK for dinner on Friday. I love their Mediterranean Egg Rolls and Tostada Pizza.
Watch anything good? We watched The Dark Knight Rises. It was ok but I was a little disappointed. I absolutely loved The Dark Knight and it just didn't compare.
Read anything good? Nope
FFCs, vents, AWs, etc? Stupid vent: I am really upset that 666 Park Ave was cancelled. I love those kind of shows and they always get cancelled. I knew the masses wouldn't love it but I was hoping for at least two seasons! I have several opportunities at work and I still don't know what to do (pay and physical location are the same). A. Stay where I am, where I am confident and comfortable, with an awesome schedule B. Challenge myself with something completely different with who knows what kind of schedule or C. Do something that I've wanted since I started with the company, relatively stable schedule with weekends off, but with a pretty large time commitment in the beginning. I need to make a decision by tomorrow and I really don't know what to do. DH said whatever makes me happy but I'm not sure what that is at this moment.
What are you looking forward to this week? My parents are taking DH and I to dinner at a place of our choosing since my sister's family won't be coming. I can't decided where to go but I'm excited. In case you haven't noticed, I love food.

I didn't love The Dark Knight Rises nearly as much as I loved Batman Begins and The Dark Knight.
I think I loved The Dark Knight because of Heath Ledger. Had he not been the Joker, I probably wouldn't have loved that one either. Chae would mention something from Batman Begins and it would sound familiar but I guess the movie just wasn't memorable. I do love the idea of a spinoff/sequel with Joseph Gordon Levitt.

Heath Ledger absolutely made that movie. He did such an incredible job. I just let my boss borrow the first two, but I'm anxious to get them back so that I can re-watch them myself.
Like you, I like the idea of a spin-off with JGL. I know Bale is done with the movies, and I hated the idea of any without him, but if JGL is going to be the focus, I'm good with that.
God only knows what happened. I tried to fix the format...this is what happend
I had a great weekend!! My friend from FL came up to visit and we had a fun-filled weekend!!
Fri- we went to HH in CP and watched the MD soccer game with a bunch of my students...kinda awkward
Sat- we went downtown and rode bikes and went into some of the museums. We got dinner at Good Stuff (yumm) and then went to see the National Christmas Tree
Sun- we went to brunch in Annapolis and it was amazing! Then headed over to a friends house to watch the great Redskins game! Took her back to the airport and then I crashed. The only low is that I'm still tired
Where did you go? I always love finding new brunch spots.
We went to Yellowfin. The food was really good, and you could choose from breakfast, dinner, desserts, soup, carved beef, some fish, some side salads (potato and macaroni) and of course bottomless mimosas!
Yes, I love their bottomless mimosas!
