Regular readers of this blog will remember that just a couple of months ago we had to have the sewer line from the house to the city line replaced which resulted in our front yard being decimated. Then we had the dishwasher crumble before our eyes. Well, we must have been cursed when it comes to water and water related appliances because yesterday we lost our water heater and then this morning the coffee maker started emitting puffs of smoke. Hopefully the water heater can be repaired (we'll find out tomorrow afternoon) and the coffee maker is already replaced (20% off at Bed, Bath & Beyond - those coupons work even when expired!), but seriously, WTF?
It's been a while since I have posted. I've been feeling mostly ok but am still having bad days, too. Been trying to keep up with some pop culture. Tina Fey's book doesn't disappoint, it's one of the better of that genre (Sarah Silverman's recent book was good, too). At the movies, Insidious was really f-ing scary and Scream 4 was a lot of fun but not that scary. Was on the lookout for Michigan landmarks during Scream since it was filmed in the A2 area but didn't recognize anything. Was that downtown Plymouth I saw? Not sure. On TV, Portlandia is the funniest show in ages (and I love seeing Portland because I miss it terribly) and The Killing is really good (shout out to my friend Amy D who works as an editor on the show!). Also still digging 30 Rock, Community, etc.
With the nicer weather (never mind the snow today) I've been trying to get out for walks more, too. Dogs are digging it and on Wednesdays Jenny and I are doing the nature trail thing (unless it rains and then we go to the mall).
Thanks to all who donated to the cancer walk. It's not too late if you meant to do it but didn't quite get there.
More soon.
Yep, Plymouth was in Scream 4. I heard The Killing was really good. I'll have to catch it on OnDemand. I really can't recall the last scary movie I saw but I've seen some scary as in bad movies! My all time favorite scary movie is Jaws. I did see the original Halloween when I was about 13 and that scared the crap out of me.
ReplyDeleteDavid, what time/place on Wednesdays do you guys walk? Perhaps I could join you.
