What more could I possibly say?

And how was your weekend?

Mine was great, in that "I didn't actually do anything" way...stayed in bed for hours and hours after waking up, only getting up when the need for a pumpkin spice latte (god bless Starbucks!) and eventually a breakfast burrito became overwhelming, and really I can't think of a better way to start the day.

Finally got out of the house around 3:30, made a very productive trip to Target, then had dinner with my family which was Tim's second visit to the circus of Mom, Dad, Sis, Bro-in-law, two nephews, one grandma, one dog, and a partridge in a pear tree. It was a blast! And of course since it was a Saturday night we had to hit "da club," and let me tell you we found this awesome place called "Aisle 27 at Fry's Electronics." The DJs are spinning your favorite club hits, at max volume to see if the systems they're looking at will annoy the neighbors enough (here's a hint: FUCK YES they will, turn that shit down!). I especially loved the mash ups of everyone testing a different system at the same time, that really had me droppin it like it was hot.

On Sunday Timmy Tim and I went to EVERY OTHER electronics store in the East Bay and still did not find a DVD player at a decent price with the funny little square plug-in thing that he was looking for to add to the evolving home theater system. But luckily Target came to the rescue as usual and he's got everything mostly hooked up now so he's super stoked. And I swear I have never been so excited to watch two movies I have absolutely no interest in (Star Wars and The Matrix). The SOUND! And the PICTURE! They were--just like regular TV, sorry sweetie. But now I don't have to wear my glasses to see the TV across the room, that's a plus.

So yep, that was about it, but it was terrific.
