TGIF

I hate that restaurant! Love the food. Hate the service. I've been to three of them and they are all the same. No, I did not eat there today but it's Friday and every time I hear TGIF, I think about that restaurant.

Anyway, there is no real reason to TGIF at this house because there really is no difference between Friday and Saturday, or any other week day really. OH, except the days that Nikki is at school and we have to take her and pick her up. I'm sure there is a BIG TGIF from Nikki since she won't have school tomorrow, but she isn't at our house on Friday's usually. Dan will still get up at 4am and work on his computer. It may be "work" but he has the option of playing. I wish the boys would come take a picture of us when we get up. Both of us at each end of the couch with our laptops, coffee, and the news on. Thank God for that Tivo thing! We usually catch the last word of something and then have to rewind it so we know what happened.

We tie-dyed some shirts today. We are doing the CHOC/Walk at Disneyland on Sunday morning and we got shirts for it. They are white with Mickey balloons and the boys won't wear them, or at least they didn't wear last years. So this year, I bought camoflauge tie-dye and we went to town on those shirts. We made some extras and we'll see how they look tomorrow.

Tom and Jake watched Modern Marvels - Environmental Tech today. THAT was fascinating. It was all about how they are inventing ways to do old things more environmentally friendly. There were triangle frames office buildings, CO2 eating algea, and a new way to drill for oil. I was cleaning the bathroom when I came down stairs and found them watching it. I sat down for a second and was hooked. It was very interesting.

The Runescape thing has faded with Tom. I think he gets tired of looking at the screen. He asked to help him find something that didn't involve looking at things. Ok? We had a hard time with that one until he decided to play fetch with Whiskey for a little while. Then he read a book that we got from the library yesterday. Jake is still very much attached to the game. He now has Grandma Ann on the game and he runs back and forth from the front room to Grandma's livingroom telling her where he is and what he is going to do. She likes the game, too. Jake says I should get a player too, but I told him I barely have time to read my email and write my blog.

We had pizza for dinner tonight because Jake has been asking for two days for pizza. He said that he has "been craving pizza for an eternity". How can you resist? The boy has to have pizza! It's understandable. We watched that new show about the Iditarod dog sled race in Alaska that we recorded.

It's been a good day.
