A Litte Fun / A Litte Productive

That's the description of my weekend.

For fun, Gary and I had dinner with Liz, Daniel and Alan at the All Good Cafe in Deep Ellum. The Asylum Street Spankers were there. We liked the location and the Spankers were good, as always.

For productive, I got some homework done - Yay. I've been procrastinating a bit and the next test is a little over a week away. Secondly, Gary and I had some fun adjusting the sprinklers. Woohoo. Gary was even more productive and put down the fertilizer and fire ant killer. :-)

Kevin Nealon

We went to see Kevin Nealon, of SNL fame, at the Improv this weekend. It was cool to see someone that famous there. I thought he was pretty funny, but not the funniest guy I've ever seen or anything.

It was nice to see Liz and Daniel since they have been particularly busy lately. We got to catch up over dinner beforehand.

Tip for purchasing tickets for "special events"... usually tickets are first come, first seated, but in the case of special events - your table number is assigned when you purchase the tickets. Thankfully we purchased tickets at about the same time so we were at neighboring tables. :-)

Trip to the Zoo

Kelly's Twins
Originally uploaded by rkbk03.

My friend, Kelly, and I took her two-year-old twins to the Fort Worth zoo on Saturday afternoon. We spent all afternoon chasing them around. The day went about how I expected it to. Kelly thought they were a lot more trouble than she expected. I was probably expecting the worst since 1) she had told me she wouldn’t be able to handle them by herself and 2) she kept asking me if I was *sure* that I wanted to go. I told her she was scaring me and maybe I should rethink my offer…

Honestly, I’ve been feeling a bit anxious to get married and have kids and I really was thinking that a day at the zoo with two-year-olds would probably help me feel less so. I thought I’d be thinking “I don’t ever want kids” by the end of the day. But, they were just so gosh darn cute even when they were bad. That thought just didn’t come to pass. :-)

This is the most recent picture I have of them from Halloween last year.

First Exam and First Project

Yay - Got my first exam and first project back tonight in my class and got an A on both. Yay!! I really thought I was headed for a B on both, so I am very happy.

Got a new project assignment tonight, so hopefully will go as well. The first one was really a bitch. It took a lot of time. At least it ended up well. :-)
