catchin' up
I just enjoy this new movable type set-up so much that I enjoy posting whether or not I have much to say other than daily biographical happenings.
This weekend I've been catchin' up with church folks. I feel a little more able to face the world. We had fellowship lunch (will there ever be a satisfying name for that function?) at church yesterday, and today I have literally spent all day chatting. I ran by our wonderful, authentic French boulangerie this morning and picked up some croissants and a baguette and headed over to Divina's. And she had a pot of coffee, and we sat and ate and chatted for hours. It was like old times. It was such catharsis to go to her house my first year here. Even though our conversations aren't really deep, the company was so nice. We were going to go swimming, but Chris wanted to finish his car. So we went to the another church family's house where he and their son have been working on his car...wretched contraption that it is. So I chatted with Cari (who is Divina's sister). So now it's evening, and I think I've had my allotted coffee portion of the week.
We do do other things besideds watching movies, but frankly, for relaxation we don't have much energy to do anything besides watch movies. And we just like to watch movies. So that is my one-time apologetic for watching movies. I guess I shouldn't feel so self-conscious about it. I was raised in a non-watching movie home (not exclusively, but minimally), so maybe that's why I need to explain...whatever...
Anyway...last night, we watched Analyze That. I though Analyze This was pretty funny in a one-timey kind of way. And we were in the mood for something dumb, so I rented the sequel. Well, I actually thought the sequel was better...at least it was a better plot, though maybe not as good for laughs. But recommendable in a light, one-timey kind of way. Froth would be my official term.
