That Son of a B**** Ferris Buellered Me!

This weekend was full of much needed relaxation. Friday night we headed up to Tinseltown to see Little Miss Sunshine, which was very dark but very funny. Saturday we ordered a pizza, drank some beer and hung our heads as we watched the debacle that was the PSU/OSU game. We rounded out the weekend but renting Lucky Number Slevin (not bad) and heading to my parents' house for dinner.

With both of us being so busy lately, we haven't had time to do much besides work and do classwork, but we have managed to get in a little TV time to unwind. The only new shows we've caught have been Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip and Smith. Studio 60 is great and it is wonderful to have Aaron Sorkin's writing back on TV. Smith was pretty good, it's a drama about art thieves a la The Thomas Crown Affair, but without Renee Russo needlessly prancing around naked.

New for me this season is My Name Is Earl and The Office, both of which I just began watching over the summer and am now beginning the fall season as a new viewer. On another comedy note, Comedy Central is now showing Scrubs nightly with back-to-back episodes to which I say ROCK ON!

Is There Anybody Out There?

Hello...is there anybody out there? Just nod if you can hear me...is there anyone home? Sorry, brief Pink Floyd moment there. I haven't blogged in about eight hundred years and this was brought to my attention recently by one of probably about two people who ever come here. How does nine months pass by so quickly? Anyway...

Mike's 30th birthday was a couple of weeks ago and much fun was had by all (except for the part where he vomited). He partied like a 20 year old and was hungover like a 30 year old. Some friends and family came into town and we all had a nice dinner at the Pie in the Sky and then barhopped in a limo.

Last weekend, we went to the Penn State/Youngstown State game in Happy Valley. It was a great day for a game and it was fun to introduce my dad to the Penn State tailgating experience. A lot of my family attended the game, as my cousin plays for Youngstown State.

Hopefully this weekend was be pretty low key, I could use some down time and I have pages and pages of tax law to get through for my class. Woo Hoo!
