I had a fun weekend. On Friday night we went out to dinner with to celebrate the birthday of some friends. On Saturday, Randy and I went to the gym (yay me) and met up with my friend, and fellow blogger, Will. We met up at our place sinc he’d never been there then headed to the Rosebud Diner in Davis Square (one of them old school diner cars). That night went to a game night at another friend of ours (playing Turbo Cranium and Balderdash). <\/p>\n
On Sunday, Randy talked me into seeing Cloverfield. I actually liked it – and I normally dislike everything that gets hyped up in advance. My only problems with it were that it showed the monster too much (I’d have prefered more of a mystery in that regard). My other issue was that it went with the old horror movie cliche’ of the guy going after the girl he done wrong instead of worrying about saving his own ass. The world is collapsing around you and you’re going to trek 50 blocks (in a pitch black subway tunnel with hi-rises collapsing above you) because you want to save the friend you had a one-night stand with? UGH.<\/p>\n
Anyway, I still liked it and was entertained.<\/p>\n
Then came Monday. Randy started his “new” job and I had the day off (Martin Luther King, Jr. Day). I slept until 11AM (so rare) and did random chores around the house. Now it’s Monday and the freaking’ feds have dropped the interest rate yet another 3\/4%! BASTARDS! It was supposed to happen on January 29th (according to everything I’d read) so I was planning on opening up some CD’s before then. I still managed to get a CD at 4.55% this morning (whereas if I had opened a CD in October it would have been over 5%…oh well). At least as the rates continue to drop, I’ll be locked in at a higher rate.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
