Okay, so a quick post for today.  The party last night went really
well.  I ended up only taking the fruit and the chocolate covered
stuff.  We actually did pretty well yesterday.  We usually
end up with phenomenally more food than anyone can eat, but we didn’t
have too much that looked barely touched.  It did sound like there
was going to be a lot of food, but I thought we had a good amount to
feed the 16 people who came.  And I purposely took fruit knowing
I’d have plenty to take home and enjoy myself!

Other than the Super Bowl party, it wasn’t that exciting of a
weekend.  Eric and I watched Pirates of the Caribbean on Friday
night.  On Saturday we went to the mall to buy Eric some new
glasses, and we also picked up a few other things while we wandered
around waiting for them to be finished.  Eric sort of let me be
the final say on the new style, and that was a lot of pressure. 
His new glasses look totally different than his old ones, but he looks
very trendy (without looking like a freak).  And Karen also
approved, so that just reinforced my decision.

Anyway, then I graded on Saturday afternoon, did laundry, made cookies,
and then we watched the CBS show about the last 30 years of Super Bowl
commercials.  I guess it wasn’t that exciting, but hey, it was
relaxing.

Oh, and in case anyone up here missed it…winter is finally here!
