Weekend was fun... spent some much needed time recooperating from my nasty cold on Friday night. I'm finally feeling and sounding better.
On Saturday night, we met up with Erin and Ross, Keely and Brian, and Brett and Sandi for sushi at Nano. We always have a fun time there... great food and the owner Linda is the best!
The cable went out on BOTH of our tv's this past weekend! The cable box in our bedroom just died completely. And the cable in the living room is getting that same error message we've already had a few times that was apparently "very rare" according to the Access Media guy last time he fixed it. Well, can't be THAT rare, considering it's happened to us 3 times now in the last 6 months and the last time was a month ago! Ugh. It should be all fixed tomorrow... I can't wait!
Matt signed us both up for an NCAA seed pool. Guess what he made my team name? "My husband is awesome!" That's the last time I let him choose a team name for me. I actually didn't even select the teams either. So, basically, he just wanted to sign up twice and used my name.
I'm sure some of you have probably seen this website (Damn You Auto Correct) already, but I just found out about it today and it's cracking me up! It's a bunch of auto-corrected text messages.
I downloaded iBooks for my iPhone yesterday and bought my first book, The Help. I wasn't sure how it would be reading on the iPhone, but it's not terrible. I'm still getting used to it. I'm sure it's not doing any favors for my eyesight.
I know it's only Tuesday, but I'm already looking forward to the weekend. Erin and I are driving home to Rochester for our cousin Kelly's wedding shower! : )

Welcome back DVR!!!
I'm so excited to have cable again... and get the DVR back up and running!
The cable company gave me an appt time frame of 11a to 2p today. I thought I would work in the office until about 10:30 and then head home to wait for the cable guy. About 10:15a, I get a call from the Skybridge doorman... someone is hear to see you from the cable company. Wow, the dude was really early! That almost never happens. Late = yes. Early = no. I told him to hang on, I'd be home in a few minutes.
I high-tailed it out of work and practically ran the seven-tenths of a mile home. I totally didn't want the guy to leave and come back later. My throat actually hurt from breathing in that arctic air. Ugh.
Now, Matt can resume his favorite spot on the couch and all will be right with the world again. : )

Fragile???
Matt ordered new lights for the aquarium and they showed up yesterday...
So much for that "FRAGILE" sticker... looks like someone dropped it and tried to rip it open! Geesh! Luckily, they packed the lights in some serious insulation and they worked. Otherwise, I'm pretty sure Matt would have been quite unhappy!
Oh, by the way, it is freaking COLD outside!!! The temperature was minus 3 this morning... the feels like temp was minus 17 degrees! Awesome weather to walk to work in... stupid Wacker drive construction. It's days like today that I miss the bus.
And as an extra bonus today, I will be walking to and from work twice. The cable guys are coming to (hopefully!) get our cable up and running again. I miss the DVR like crazy! Watching shows without being able to fast forward through the commercials is so annoying.

Saturday
There's a lot of snow out there!
But the streets are clear and the sidewalks are cleaned off enough to walk on. When this stuff melts, it's going to be messy!
We went to Holiday Grill and Bar for brunch this morning. Check out the special on Mondays = Malort shots for $1. I'm sure Clint would be happy to hear about that!
Ever since the storm, our cable has been out in the living room. The cable in the bedroom is iffy, at best. According to the error, there are too may cables hooked up to the same spot in our condo building. This happened to us before. Last time, it was freaky because we'd be watching tv and the channel would just switch on it's own. Now, we aren't even getting a picture. We've already watched down the DVR, now it's on to DVDs!
