new digs

On saturday night we went over to Charlene and Scott's place for dinner. Charlene cooked some really good mediteranan food. I was very impressed. Our girl is so domesticated now! Scott is an excellent host and was always attentative to our needs - making sure we had something to drink or eat. Their house is lovely and has an interesting piece of art in the eating area. It makes a great conversational piece. Kind of like a Rorschach (inkblot) image. Each of us saw different things - though no one saw what I saw. :-) I've got a vivid imagination. All that movie watching wasn't for nothing afterall!

After Charlene's place we went back to my house and watched Fearless (downloaded). Michael bought us an HP entertainment/media pc. It's like Tivo. Now we can record live TV and play it back later. The remote is a bit complicated but we're getting use to it. My parents could barely load a CD into the DVD player. Now seeing the computer tower next to the TV - they just turn the other way and watch the TV in the other room (or their own room). After Jet Li' Fearless, Chicky turned on 16 Blocks (another movie) but I had fallen asleep then. I was pretty tired as we didn't get back to Chicky's place till 3am Saturday morning (after his company party) and I had to get up at 9am to take my car back to Coquitlam for a maintenance check. Little sleep catches up with me on the weekends and I end up sleeping in as much as I can.
