High society
It being Monday, I have no witty life observations to share, so I'll treat you to one of those "here-is-what-I-did-this-weekend" posts.
We actually had quite the exciting and social weekend! On Friday, Michele and I saw the Matrix sequel (my second viewing, her first) and concluded that it wasn't bad, but wasn't great either. On Saturday, the real fun began with a surprise wedding shower hosted by Brian and Rachel at their beautiful new home. Jay even graced us with some bottles of homebrewed beer (which I'm sure I would have enjoyed if I liked the taste of beer). Steve (who was enjoying Jay's beer quite a bit, if you know what I mean) was in top form. Much laughing, talking, eating, and gift-opening ensued. Many thanks to Brian and Rachel for organizing all the excitement!
On Sunday afternoon, a slew of acquaintances came by the apartment (which, while still clogged with boxes, furniture, and other miscellanea, is looking better and better as the weeks go by). Some LAN gaming happened (Total Annihilation, which gets the award for being the oldest computer game that we still play on occasion), followed by the usual visiting and eating. All in all, a successful weekend. Hope you all had an equally enjoyable time.
