I Got Something Good Going For Myself

I wanted to post some of my pictures from the weekend. Since I'm running low on storage space, you get a slide show. Feel free to visit my Picasa page if you'd like to download some of the pictures. I wish I could have gotten a picture of the conversations she and Seuao have with only their eyebrows, and Becca's mean streak while we were playing Pounce. Too funny! Benji goes to the doctor for his 15-month check-up tomorrow. I'm sure he's at least 28 lbs by now; he's wearing mostly 18-month and 24-month clothes, and he has nearly outgrown his size 5 1/2 (wide, of course) shoes. *sigh* He's so cute, but he really needs to start walking!!! I rented Bride Wars from the RedBox yesterday. I wasn't that impressed. It would have been much better if there had been a bit more character development. It's the same with Twilight: I really think it could have benefited from an extra five or ten minutes of Edward and Bella getting to know each other before they declare their irrefutable love for one another. On the other hand, I'm really enjoying the mini-series Lost In Austen on PBS. I think I will have to own it at some point. Too bad they are only showing one episode every week; at least it will be concluded next Sunday. Work today was pretty good. I got to work with my two favorite surgeons for several hours each. They are both very good guys, and working with them makes me happy. Even so, I'm tired, and I'm not particularly looking forward to working tomorrow. I usually have Wednesdays off, but I took four hours (a "princess shift") from a fellow scrub, in return for her taking my Friday evening. I wanted that off so we can go to my friend Ann Marie's wedding reception and to go see Angels & Demons. I'm way excited to see that; I'm sure the book is better, but it will be cool to see the places and statues and buildings I have only read about. Good times. I was hoping to see Star Trek over the weekend, but no movies were seen. That's okay; we had some good family time. I'm not a Trekkie, but I am a fan of J.J. Abrams. He's a very talented director, and I have only heard good things about Star Trek. In any case, I'm sure I'll see it eventually. Have a good hump-day, folks!

Mare - thanks for turning me on to "Lost In Austen". As a certifiable Austen-addict, I am so going to lock that into my DVR! :-)

Je t'aime!
