It's already 1 PM here, and I am just now getting around to this. This is absolutely indicative of the sort of week I've got lined up. Tonight is my only free evening, and it is certainly not a free day … with every portion of it being lined up with meetings, etc.
Last night, we went to a 93rd b'day party for my paternal grandmother. My dad cooked a great dinner and we all enjoyed celebrating grandma's 93rd year. I just hope we can all be as healthy and together as she is at that age.
Tonight, as I said, is free. Tomorrow I'm going to get my dress back from being altered and I have to try it on and they make sure it's right, etc. Not going to be a very time-consuming thing, but it sticks in the middle of the evening and has to be done.
Thursday is my mom's b'day as well, which we will be celebrating with some dinner and miscellaneous fun on Friday.
I ♥ busy weeks.
Well, we had a very nice memorial day weekend. Friday at Elitch Gardens was good fun. I rode all of the roller coasters … and only liked two of the, the old-fashioned wooden roller coaster (with no upside down) and the flying coaster which was slower and less dramatic in general. The day was a bit overcast and it tried to rain a few times, but that just mostly kept the lines pretty short and the heat at bay. After dinner and some ice cream, we attempted to watch the first X-men movie. Kelly and Matt made it, but I had to go to sleep. 
Matt earned some comp time last week when he stayed over the weekend in California, so we're kicking off memorial day weekend by taking half days and going with our siblings (the ones who live in tow, that is) to Six Flags Elitch Gardens. Elitch Gardens have been a CO institution since … like forever. They used to be real deal huge tree gardens with great picnic shelters and a visible lack of comercialization. But times have changed and they were bought up by Six Flags a long while back and then moved down town where there were noticably fewer trees and noticably more Warner Bros. characters and swag. Oh well. 
Isn't this a cute bag? Kelly and I certainly thought so. We ordered it for my mom for her birthday a week or so ago. It arrived last week and it was sitting on my coffee table, patiently waiting to be wrapped. Loki apparently liked this bag very much as well. He thought it looked good enough to eat. So Friday night, when he was home alone, he did. Of course, he didn't destroy it too throughly, just enough that it looks rather rough around the edges and is completely unacceptable as a birthday present. Oy. Needless to say, the box has returned. I may have to call in 
I'd been hearing loads about this game,
