hey kidlets! had a good day playing hookie from work. decided to check emails from home and then went to lunch with M. we went to go get some soup, which turned out to be some spendy soup. 6 bux for a bowl of soup, some bread sticks and a bottle of lemonade. the soup was good, but thats kinda steep for water, chicken, veggies and noodles. but the day was good. hung out with M all day, doing the post-christmas return/exchanges, and then watched as she organized her apartment. after a nutritious dinner of ravioli-Os, we tried to find a theatre showing 'Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon' but it doesnt appear to have made it to the great snowy land. so instead we went to see 'Miss Congeniality'. its way funny. i highly recommend it. Candice Bergen does a GREAT job, and so do Benjamin Bratt, William Shatner and of course everyone's favorite Sandra Bullock. and lets not forget Michael Caine. he was Grrrreat!!!
