The Weekend

Okay, so dog sitting not as easy as it sounds. At least in this case. Once they had been walked, fed, medicined etc. I rested and watched marathon That 70's Show. Now that is total relaxation even if its just somewhat interrupted by the dogs being let in and out of the backyard.

And then (joy of all joys!) I was graced by my returning sister's presence. We then preceded to chat and watch tv (the youngsters these days always doing crazy things.. or not). Very relaxing. Got to chat all about the upcoming (4 days!) trip. Good to see her, even if she is very tan.. making me look extremely pale in comparison.

The next day (which began at 5:30 am, thanks dogs) was filled with preparations for prom. Not mine, mind you.. I'm in college, for god's sakes! But my younger sister (the third born) and her other friends filled up our house with the drama of dresses zipping, fake nails, makeup and curls. An exciting day for sure, but also one that made me very glad to have escaped the strong grasp of high school drama.

That evening I saw The DaVinci Code with two other sisters (2nd and 4th). We had all read the book, it is quite the page turner! Some points about the movie:
1. Tom Hank's hair, much talked about before the movie.. didn't even really notice it, looked like his hair all the time.
2. Movie, not as bad as critics said. If you read the book and enjoyed it.. you'll like the movie. It's based on a book! What do you think the movie is going to be like?
3. Read the book first! Just do it, its good and worth it helping you to understand the movie.
4. Screaming in the middle of a packed movie theater is quite embarrassing... not that I have personal knowledge on the subject.

Well, thats all for now. Lets see what fun I can come up with today.
