rock, rule and spin

So over the Easter weekend, B and I:

• Saw the 10:40pm show on Friday of Holes with the cows. (everyone loved it!)


• Drove to San Jose (yes, I know the way) on Saturday afternoon.


• Attended the launch of an iMax movie about the Coral Reef at The Tech museum, gratis.


• (Didn't stay for the big bash, though, so missed out on meeting William Shatner).


• Drove back to Rockridge, grabbed dinner at Cactus, and hopped on BART to the City.


• Once in the City, celebrated the official opening of Louie's Bar and Grill, a hip new joint in the Financial District (B has made friends of one the owners (although none of them are named "Louie" )).


• Came home, dyed Easter eggs and made marble magnets (finally).


• Then on Sunday, drove to Sacramento and had a combination party for Easter and my cousin's birthday (which was the previous day) at my Aunt and Uncle's home.


• Drove back in moderate traffic, learned about something called "Pink Slip Paralysis" and a book called Work It! How to Get Ahead, Save Your Ass, and Land a Job in Any Economy by Allison Hemming while listening to Sound Money.


• Came upstairs, had tea and chocolate chip pancakes and went to bed.

Like I said, my life looks pretty exciting on paper. (Of course there is a little marketer inside me who understands the concept of spin.)
