TGWTDT Quickie

Quickie post this morning...things are going smoothly here lately, and Fall seems to have arrived -- yay! It's my favorite time of year!

Wanted to mention that over the weekend I viewed the Swedish film The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo -- and it was a rocking thriller, so well-acted, that I think it must be pure arrogance on Hollywood's part to think it needs to be remade here. I can't wait for the next film, which I believe is being worked on: The Girl Who Played With Fire. [The third should be The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest; all are based on author Stieg Larsson's set of thriller novels.]

If you get a chance, I highly recommend seeing it!
Enjoy!

Hot Tub Time Machine

'Forgot to mention something very good from yesterday: Spencer got his appointment confirmation letter from our community's substance abuse rehabilitation center, for the 2nd week of October. It's an initial assessment of his situation and they'll then decide whether he can go for intensive outpatient or will need inpatient rehab.

Wheels are rolling -- YEAH!

My first day off yesterday was fun, us having lunch and conversation with Amanda and her sister. They really are such cool people! ;O)

Let's see, then we ran a few errands, stopped for a visit at another friend's place, and came home and--limiting ourselves both on alcohol [Spencer stuck to his promise of only a six-pack, and I had a couple glasses of wine]--watched Hot Tub Time Machine...OMG, it was hilarious! Spencer related quite a bit to the character of Lou [the anything-goes alcoholic] and I really liked the geeky 20-year-old nephew! He was adorable and a hoot! The fashions made me cringe, too, especially knowing that I wore that stuff, big hair and all! Yuk!

Today I cleaned the living room, Spencer did dishes, and we went out to lunch and took one lap around the mall for exercise. However it was so crowded, mostly with teenagers, that we ditched our second lap and came home and took a nap lol

This evening I took Spencer over to Kip's, and I came back home, fixed guacamole, and will have some wine, snacks and a movie.

Baby has been either itching or sleeping all day lol Poor thing, we're waiting for his Capstar order to arrive so we can tackle some of his fleas.

I heard from Huxley earlier today, and am hoping to touch base with Cary.

It's been a nice day: relaxing, no fussing, good food, nap, and company.
And I'm very thankful.

Comic Relief

So we're sittin' in our underwear on the living room couch, watching the new Clash of the Titans on DVD, and some church people knock on the partially-open front door, to invite us to attend some time!

I don't think the dude knocking saw me, but I covered my boobs and ran to the hallway, Baby running ahead of me.

Spencer said the guy might really want me to attend their church now lol

OMG, we had a great laugh outta' that one!

'Night,
