A Full Work Week?! NOOO!!!

I was quite shocked when I realized this morning that this will be my first full week at work since December 7! Between traveling (KC and DR), the holidays, and being out sick, I have had abbreviated weeks for a while. Weird to think about. I really like the short weeks.

When we had dinner with Paul and Deb on Friday, Deb and I were talking about that exact subject. We concur that a regular work week really should be limited to Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. I'd work 12 hour days to cover that. Really! Alas, it is not meant to be...

We had a fun outing with Steve and Helen on Saturday to see the Red Sox World Series trophies. Algonquin High's girls basketball team had an even from 1 - 3 pm inviting anyone to come and take a look. It was very cool!


We watched Eastern Promises (Viggo Mortensen, Naomi Watts, Vincent Cassel) Saturday night. It was very good. There was a bit of graphic violence (it is a mafia movie, after all) but nothing on par with Reservoir Dogs... It was different and, I thought, well done. Thursday night we saw Shattered (Pierce Brosnan, Maria Bello, Gerard Butler). We'd both been putting off watching it, kind of out of fear it would be another bad Pierce Brosnan movie. Boy, were we wrong! We were on the edge of our seats through the whole thing. It was great. The downside of our movie watching is that we've depleted our supply. Hopefully more movies are sent to us soon :)

I think I will end things for now. Tomorrow I'll tell what I am reading... Smiles!
