Feeling a bit blue lately. Hopefully it will pass. I’ll make some lunch and go out for a ride later on. I think it’ll do me some good.

Nothing interesting…
Spent the day doing laundry and working on Bach’s 13th invention. Vince is slowing converting his toy allegiance from Thomas the Tank Engine toys to Legos.
Snow again.
It snowed again last night. About 4 inches. It’s still snowing now a little bit. Jeremy stopped his steroids last night and now is just taking antihistamines. There are a few hives popping up, but he seems fine.
Emy’s 25th brithday party.
Today we headed down to NYC to celebrate Emy’s 25th birthday party and there was a lot to celebrate. She’s got her own apartment in Brooklyn and a new job offer from this hip hotel in the meatpacking district, The Gansevoort Hotel. A five-star establishment, a room costs $400 a night, with her employee discount, we could stay there for a mere $200. They pay well, 20 bucks and hour (!) and after 2 months, health insurance becomes a benefit. Snazzy!
Katherine and Bob spent the morning buying amazing food at Zabar’s and we ate a nice brunch in Ben’s apartment. His roommate, Tim, was there as well as Ben’s friend Eric who spend Christmas making blueberry cobbler with Vince.
After the party, we headed to Urban Outfitters to see if Emy could buy some jeans, but no luck. Emy went home to nap before her own birthday party at her apartment and the rest of us headed to Central Park to see the new “The Gates” exhibit by Christo.
Mr. Mom
I also went on a cleaning binge tonight. I’m trying to get the downstair ready for a bridge night I want to host next week. As mentioned before, the owner came by and basically cleaned up the house a little bit. I sorta took that as a hint that he wants us to clean up a little more. And he moved my bike out into the garage, but I think that’s a hint I’m going to ignore. 😛
About Last Night…
Seems like my Saturday night is just as fun filled as my Friday night. I ended up watching more movies today. In reverse order, I saw: The Green Mile, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, and Eraser.
Steven Spielberg is always good at making the bad guys look super bad and the good guys feel super good. He always seems to be able to tug just the right amount on your emotional strings.
I like the alligator scene in Eraser. Basically 3 bad guys are chasing him at the zoo, and he only has 2 bullets left. So Ah-nold shoots the glass tank that hold some alligators that dutifully take out the 3 bad guys and the last bullet is saved to kill the alligator. Which right after, Ah-nold tells the dead alligator, “You’re luggage!”. a hahahhahah!
