My Birthday

I want to thank everyone who sent a message, or email to me for my birthday! So, thanks!

This weekend was a pretty fun one. For starters, I didn't work more than two hours all weekend! Yeah!

Friday evening Molly and I ate some italian food and went and saw the new Cohan Brothers movie, "Burn After Reading" or something like that. It was very good. Dark... but funny, in the Cohan brothers sort of way. Afterward we got in the hot-tub and went to bed, a little early ;)

The next morning, I tried to sleep in, but couldn't. So I got up and worked, and let Molly sleep in... she earned it. When she did finally get up, we went to the Farmer's Market in Hillsboro to get some fruit. Afterward we ran some much-neglected errands (Home depot, the grocery store, etc.) We spent about an hour and a half getting new cell-phone numbers at AT&T wireless. I also got a new phone. If you want the new numbers, please email us, and I'll send them on. The AT&T wireless store that we went to was having a grand-opening sale... they had a wind tunnel which had "cellphone bucks" and you could go inside for 20 seconds to grab as many of these flying bucks as you could. They went toward the purchase of a new phone. Between Molly and I we grabbed $51, which is great. My phone would have been $169, but with the $100 rebate, and 51 bucks, it was 19. NICE.

I spent the next few hours constructing 2x4s around the bottom of my deck to keep the critters/varmints out: http://teamnorris.blogspot.com/2008/02/age-old-question-critter-or-varmint.html

That (of course) took 2 visits to the Home Depot, because I've never done a single project in one trip to the Depot. Once completed, we went and caught the Matinee of Wall-E which if you haven't seen it, go now... its fantastic.

We came home and ate some leftovers, and finished up a little bit of yard work, and went to bed VERY EARLY. ;) ;)

The next morning, Molly and I both slept in late. We got up and went to the Home Depot again, and went on a hunt for a bicycle for me (at the local goodwill stores). We couldn't find one, so we ended up buying one at Joe's (which is a sporting goods store). When we got home we drove the new bikes up to another Farmer's market to get some produce for dinner. Then did some more errands around the house (cleaning, etc). Later we rode our bikes again, this time to REI, which is a sporting goods store, to return some things that we had purchased online. When we got back home we just watched some TV, made dinner... got into the Hot-tub, and wen't to bed, once again, a little early...

Happy Birthday!
