that's great it starts with an...

a three day weekend in the books and i feel rested and ready to go. well, not ready to go but rested for sure. i just got the memo saying that my employer has decided to cancel all corperate sponsored holiday parties this year because 'we have not consistently met our own high internal standards company wide.' hmmm, i'd say the writing is on the wall. i can't read it though.

on a good note, we did a lot of fun stuff over the weekend. our dinner at harvest downtown was superb, we opted for the 6 course tasting menu and it felt like we were eating for 2 and a half hours...oh wait, we were. it was really good, definately worth the wine hangover. after dinner we strolled to state street and had a drink at the rooftop resturaunt at the modern art museum. it was amazing to see all the costumes out already friday night...cheapskates that didn't want to pay the admission fee the next night.

saturday we entered the world of high definition television, but that is another blog entry altogether. i will say this, high definition tv is more vivid than real life...i may never leave the living room.

yesterday i was able to get most of the yard ready for the dark season, and i watched the packers play in hd. robin and i did a practice run with turkey and it was sooo good.
