Rehabilitation that works

At least, that's what I got out of this story.

Movie review

Paris je t'aime!

A collection of short films centering on love in Paris. With 20 defferent directors, you wouldn't think that this collection would weave together so well. I cannot be called upon to choose a favorite film. But my favorite quote is ("By acting like a man in love, he became a man in love again.")

I totally posted the French version of the quote and blogger edited it. Arg.

It's not funny

The snow needs to stop. The vernal equinox has passed. Spring is officially here. A foot of snow is incongrous and unnecessary.

Have a beer with me until this passes.

I will also need a phone, a vacuum cleaner, and handsoap. There's more, I'm sure.

Libiamo's was tasty

Howdy

Kari and I crossed Bella's Fat Cat off the list. Wait..... It wasn't on the list. Kari and I thought outside the box and ate at one of our favorite places despite it not being on the list last night. Bella's now has cheese for cheese fries. I have asked for cheese for cheese fries every time I eat there for the past 8 years or so. Go me!

This past Tuesday sucked. I took care of the change of address and stopping service of phone, internet and electricity. Then I got the "I think we need to talk" notice. And it was my last day off before working 7 in a row. Which means my next day off is still two days away. This Tuesday, I'll be painting and moving more stuff. I also have a doctor's appointment that I have moved around several times for work. Work tried to get me to work Tuesday. I threw down. I'm tired of moving my doctor's appointment.

On a fun note, I was a star in a training video for work Thursday and Friday!

Took care of Nessun Dorma today. Go us!

Check!

Sobelman's
Kari and I crossed this off of our list today. It was not my first time there, but it was hers. Our waitress was amazing, which is rare for me to say. And the burgers are truly awesome. Check it out for yourself!

bwahahahaha

One Month Left In Riverwest

So Kari and I have a "To Do" list of things that we haven't yet done, or things we've loved doing, while I've lived in this neighborhood the last five years. In no particular order:

Broad Vocabulary
Nessun Dorma
Cafe Brucke
The New Alterra
Mad Planet
Sobelman's
Sprecher Brewery
Italian restaurant from Steph
Oakland Trattoria
Palermo Villa
Third Ward Shopping
Coquette Cafe

I'm sad that my time will end before I get to spend a few nights enjoying my wonderful balcony once more. If I had known that the last time I sat on the balcony before winter arrived would have been my last time ever, I would have stayed out there much longer. There's a lesson in that, I suppose.

I don't want to move with about 48% of my being. But, it's very exciting all the same. I'm sure I'll make a similar list the next time I move!
