Take 2

Today was another snow day and I honestly didn't think life could get any better. Behold! Snow day three tomorrow! Life is good. I could get used to 5-day weekends. Today was spent with a good friend. Trying to get some qt in before she leaves again tomorrow to go back to Spain.

TOUCHDOWN TEXAS!!!!!

OK, I'm back. We ran some errands this morning. Encountered far too many crazies on the roads. A man driving a Roadway semi-truck almost ended our lives. Yeah, that was dramatic but true nonetheless. I have his truck number saved in my phone. I need to figure out how to report him to his peeps. Other than that, just the usual winter weather driving situations. Multiple cars stuck in the snow. Not to toot my own horn people, but my car has rear-wheel drive and I made it around and out of the city without driving myself into a mountain of snow. Pull it together.

I forgot I promised a movie review today. We watched Away We Go last night. Usually if I start a movie after 9:00pm I'm guaranteed to fall asleep a quarter of the way in. I did fall asleep for a little bit but I awoke and finished the movie. So, it gets my vote! The movie was about a young couple, living on love, with a baby on the way. The little guy has one set of living grandparents and his parents recently moved closer so they could be together. Alas, the grandparents decide they want to move to Belgium. (Mom and Dad: If you're reading this, don't even try it.) With the news, the pregnant couple goes on a search around the country to find a new home close to family members or friends. One of the people they visit is Jim Gaffigan. Excellent. After all of the ups and downs they end up at the the mother's parents house/set of grandparents that aren't living. When they arrive they know they have found their new home, even though they are alone. Touching.

I need to get back to the football game. It's 24-13 Alabama right now. I haven't lost faith, hook 'em Horns. After that, I'll be watching videos of Mariah Carey at the People's Choice Awards last night. That's two nights in a row, Mariah. I think I'll retract the coma comment, you're entertaining me.
