This past weekend was awesome. I even worked out both days, yay for me! Although on Saturday I especially needed to since G.'s birthday brunch was totally decadent. I ate: banana and syrup covered waffle, plenty o' pineapple, papaya and strawberries, scrambled eggs, bacon, potatoes, sweet potatoes, some kind of sweet cornbread thing, and for dessert, Eggs Benedict! (I avoided the banana bread, yay for me again!)
After brunch a group of us went to the Menil with my bro for the Max Ernst exhibit, which was sublime. I realized that THAT is the kind of thing I need to be doing more of this year: more trips to museums, art and otherwise, for art and culture therapy. It feeds my soul and calms me down, that's for sure. I may even buy a membership to the science museum; I am sorely tempted and keep revisiting the idea. They've got some awesome exhibits coming this year: Genghis Khan, diamonds, and the Terra Cotta warriors!
Yesterday S and I went for a run, although I seem to have twisted my ankle about 3 weeks ago (more ridiculous injuries that show I ain't as young as I used to be--I was getting out of bed and my foot just collapsed underneath me! It apparently was asleep and I didn't realize it!) and it continues to slightly ache on and off. So I only ran 1 lap and walked the rest. Later we watched more 30 Rock, our new favorite show, on DVD. We lounged around until it was time to meet Mano at the Movie Tavern for Benjamin Button. We knew that since that movie is about 4 hours long we better watch it at a place where we can order a meal! BB was good and sublime, but the ending depressed S and gave him a headache and put him in a foul mood the rest of the night. Now the season begins where I attempt to watch as many Oscar-contenders as possible, so I'm glad I got this one out of the way.
