Weekend Report

SK and I devoted Friday evening to Eagles football. We watched the football game and then headed over to the multiplex to watch Invincible. I was pleasantly surprised and I genuinely got caught up in Vince Papale's story. A small group of Eagles fans wearing jerseys and other paraphenelia was there being loud and obnoxious -- it made me miss Philly. They kept shouting at the movie and making funny comments. In a weird way, it made me proud to be a Philadelphian.

Afterwards, we went to an old-fashioned retro diner and had a milkshake and apple pie. Overall it was a very nice evening and I didn't feel widowed at all.












These are some pics from a daytrip to Point Reyes National Seashore with our friends BL/JL. As you can see, the weather was a little overcast, so no sunbathing for us, but we managed to have fun anyway. We visited a lighthouse and decided that it would be a lonely job to be a lighthouse keeper. And SK inspected the inside of a foghorn.

The highlight of our trip was probably the seal sighting. They were pretty far away from where we were standing, but we could hear them barking -- Ark! Ark! Ark! We did our best to imitate them and see if they turned to look at us, but no dice.

Last but not least, SK and I had our first dinner party. It wasn't a big deal and we didn't go all fancy or anything (only had three friends over), but we both remarked at the end of the night, how nice it was to have our apartment filled with conversation and laughter. Our apartment is usually cold (unless we turn the heaters on), but the whole place was nice and cozy from the body heat of five people and the smell of good food.
