After getting raped by the gubmint on Saturday, we had a late lunch at Baja Fresh. We went home and both sulked while retreating to TV/computer distractions. The evening came soon and we decided to rent The Grudge – bad movie – don’t rent it. I woke up early today and decided to go to work. I accomplished a lot. Enough to where a huge weight has been lifted off of my chest. Unfortunately I picked the wrong Sunday to spend all day at work. The weather was gorgeous today. After a whole week of cold, wet weather, the sun came out this morning and rendered two distant clouds and near-80 degree weather. It was so beautiful outside today. And to think: almost one year ago to-the-day it was snowing in Austin!
Tomorrow is Valentine’s day – the day where we’re supposed to be hyper-consumers. Last year Elise and her girlfriends had a slumber party the night before V-day. I picked Elise up late on V-day and we had a romantic drive-thru dinner at Jack in the Box. Tomorrow we’re babysitting Jack so John and Christine can have a little time alone and so we can exerience spontaneous liquid poo.
Since Jack’s birth, I’ve gotten into the habit of checking englers.org during my lunch break to see if there are any new pictures. I usually click the link to your website and have really enjoyed your postings. I feel that I have gotten to know both you and Elise, which is wonderful since you are Jack’s godparents.
It is so nice of you to babysit for John and Christine tonight. What a thoughful gesture!
We will see you on the 27th.
