Summing Up

Hello, all!

Sorry for the missing days - NaNo and a VERY crzy week took all my time. We had somewhere to go every single night last week. It was ridiculous! I've managed to keep up with Nano, thatnks to a handful of 4,000+ word sessions so I'm still on track there. This weekend was also busy but entertaining so I won't complain (too much!) Friday night, The Wife went to a wake for the father of a co-worker. It was raining and in a very unpleasant area, so I drove her there. The Boy and I hung out in the min-van (yes, I drive one of those hell-beast vehicles) while she paid her respects. I got some work done on the novel (gotta love laptops!) and The Boy watched a DVD. GOt home just in time to watch the new BSG.

Saturday, running about all day with The Wife, while The Boy went to a Bar Mitzvah. Sat. night, we went to a local theater performance of the musical "1776", a personal favorite for both me and The Boy. Show was really well done and we stopped for a great dinner in a nice little restaurrant that we will definitely be returning to. Hard part of the night was to keep The Boy (okay, and ME!) from singing along with the show! Great family night!

Sunday, The BOy and his girlfriend wanted to go to the movies but they needed a ride and The Wife (overprotective oman that she is!) wouldn't let them go without adult escort so we went to see "The Santa Clause III". Not exactly what you'd call a great film. Had more fun watching the coming attractions actually. The Wife is dying to see "Happy Feet" (the dancing penguins?) with Robin Williams. That is the funniest man on the planet and I thought she was gonna pee her pants just watching the preview. Hopefully, it's not a case of showing the only funny scenes for the trailer . . .

Got hom in time to have some Chinese food for dinner and watch my Giants get their asses handed to them by Da' Bears. (sigh - me no happy!) Tonight: "Heroes" is on - a MUST watch for everone. Put it on (9:00 on NBC) Trust me on this, you'll love it! Ah well, the day ends and I gotta bail. Talk to you soon.

Later!
