Weekends

I've had a lot of great weekends in my life. Most of my favorite weekends are spent up in the mountains. This weekend i have to work and so does Jeff. I keep telling myself that "at least we both have good jobs". But I wonder... sometimes it seems like employers forget that you have to recharge your batteries. If deadlines are so tight that you cannot even take a Saturday to recharge maybe it's time to reconsider the deadline. Then again... I have many friends that are either out of work or living on much smaller salaries so I do recognize that we are blessed.

Last night I watched Date Night. Awesome movie by the way... I heart Steve Carrol. Anyway... they lived in the coolest house. Now, I'm not a stalker but with some Google skills I was able to find the house. Phil and Claire Foster’s house from Date Night is located at 620 Vallombrosa Drive in Pasadena. Now i would NOT like to live in Pasadena but I WOULD like to have a house that looked like this. :) I wonder how difficult it would be to add some black shutters and a lot of landscaping to my house to make it look similar... other than money and hard work what's stopping me? LOL

Well, since I do have to work today I better go but I'll leave you with this final thought...

Typical Ritter Date Night:
Movie - $20 tickets
popcorn & soda - $25
Dinner - $60
TOTAL - $105

Last night's date:
Goodwill - free :)
Dollar Store - $2.50 (two bags of Red Vines to eat while we watched a DVD)
Blockbuster - $4.00 (rented Date Night)
Subway - $15
TOTAL - $21.50

Guess which date was more fun? :-) Oh... and the bonus... I was asleep and snoring in my bed by 9:30~!~!!~ Can't beat that! :)
