Today is Brian’s grandmother’s 90th birthday. (Happy Birthday, Gwen!) To celebrate, a bunch of the family went to Surf n’ Turf for dinner last night. It was nice seeing everyone and the food was great as always.
the breakfast club
We watched this movie the other night. I believe this was my second viewing of the movie, but apparently it was Brian’s 51st viewing of the movie, for which he has all of the dialog memorized (unfortunately for us). Much like most of the other movies from my youth, I enjoyed it more the first time I watched it. Jake really liked it, though, but I guess that is no surprise since it is a movie about teenagers and he is almost one.
easter
We spent Easter afternoon at my in-laws and Easter night watching The Walking Dead. Actually, Jake stayed at my in-laws that night, so I made Brian watch The Walking Dead with me (Jake’s my usual partner in crime for TV watching). I thought it was going to be epic, but it was kind of meh. They kept playing up the whole war thing the past few episodes, but that never really came to fruition. On the other hand, the Carl stuff was great–what an interesting turn for that character. Overall, it was an excellent season, but the season finale left something to be desired. Still, I’m looking forward to the show’s return in October.
role models
Brian swears we saw this movie before, but I have no record or remembrance of it, so we watched it last night. It was ok–it had some funny parts–but was not hysterically funny. I suppose it was worth watching if you like crude humor, which my unrefined tastes do.
sidecar delivery
My sidecar was delivered to a freight terminal in Bedford today. Brian was kind enough to drive out there this afternoon, pick it up, and drop it off at Triumph of Windber, where it will be installed. We have to drop my bike off this weekend and the sidecar needs to be painted, so they’ll be installing it around the 2nd week of April. I’m pretty excited about the whole thing. Stay tuned…
