weekly post

I seem to only update y'all weekly, huh? Better than nothing I suppose! 

Let's see...what's been going on since we last met? 

Sunday was consumed by The Search for Rockband 2 for the Wii. After our totally fun night at the Burnap's last weekend I thought Rockband would be a great Valentines' Day present to Eric (and me!). Also thought it would be easy to find - boy was I wrong there! Ended up unsuccessful after checking 2 Best Buys, a Gamestop, 2 Wal Marts, 2 Targets and Circuit City. So, upon the suggestion of my friend Jen I went online and found it at BarnesandNoble.com and used a gift card (which basically paid for expedited shipping). It arrived yesterday, we opened it today, and have rocked out a bit already! Also went to my first month of Craft Club at Jen's house which was very fun! 

The work-week was as usual, with a few fun things (tours, audits, and other fun like that) thrown in to keep me busier. 

Had Junior League on Tuesday night and rode with Mary Elizabeth. It was nice to get caught up with her too!

Last night Eric went to a friend's house to game, and I met some friends to see "Shopaholic" over at Brier Creek. Cute movie - not cinematic genius, but not bad. Afterwards we headed over to Trali for drinks and some man at the bar bought us our first round - for all 8 of us! We had a great time chatting and I got home around 11:30ish. Oh, and, Trali is 1.1 miles from our house - cool, huh??!

Today we got up and Eric told me I could finally play with my Cricut (HOORAY!!!). I let him open his presents. He was happy about Rockband and his other gifts so yay for that... we got Rockband all set up and played a little.  Although I still can't sing, it's really fun. I impressed him with my knowledge of ALL the words to "La Bamba". Hee hee - that was printed in the Fort Worth paper many moons ago (no clue why) and it stuck in my head. And I remembered that my favorite magazine as a teen was that one that had all the words to songs in it (so prehistoric now with the internet...) - I think it was called Song Hits? 

We went out to Best Buy today to get Eric a doohickey that makes the internet go thru power outlets. We have a 3-story townhouse, and the internet comes into the first floor scrapbooking room...by the 3rd floor the signal is pretty poopy, and that's where his desktop computer is, so this will help him a lot!  Ate lunch, got some groceries, and then we came home and I scrapbooked while he gamed, then he cooked me a DELICOUS dinner - shrimp and steak. I made his grandmother's broccoli cheese casserole, too. 

And that's whats up here! I've got some pictures to upload but will do that tomorrow!
