Cirque de Soliel


I started to study Quickbooks recently. Its good and very easy to learn. Thought I will be in touch with my Accounts knowledge instead of sitting idle. Though I majored in Finance and Banking i never actually got to work in those fields which saddens me. Remmembering what all I learnt is a different part of the story :) but I wish I could get into something in my field just to gain some experience. Again in this market situation I will not even be that needle in a haystack. 

Leaving behind all the miseries  of being jobless....today we are going to watch Cirque du soleil. I'm kind of excited. Recently it seems a guy died on stage while performing.http://www.baltimoresun.com/news/nationworld/nation/wire/sns-ap-performers-death,0,4538653.story A bit scarry to think of a body just dropping dead center stage.  Wonder what happens next??? Do they just continue with the show acting as if it was part of the performance or do they just stop the show??  Anyway...these shows are really nice and entertaiing..its going to be the first time Im watching one in Georgia. Ive seen the Blue Man group perform and ive also watched the musical "The Producers". For the The Producers..we didnt get good seats so I literally had to strain my eyes to watch but was well worth it. ( I was so hesitant to be the only one to use the binoculars provided on each seat)

Another weekend gone by...another valentines day gone by.....

As every weekend approaches..the same thing crosses my mind..."Oh! this weekend we are free!!!." But by Sunday night I start to wonder..How on earth did the 2 days pass by so quickly.  Unlike usual weekends, this weekend we had an agenda. We had to get couple of things done like renewing my husbands drivers license etc.  And so I started my Saturday morning rituals :
1) Have my cup of coffee
2) Browse
3) Browse
4) Browse
5) Not Browse but call my sister and chat (this chat would usually range anywhere from 2 mins to 1.5 hours)
So I guess that explains my saturday mornings. And yes I forgot to mention my N number of visits to the bedroom attempting to wake my husband up:)
Thanks to Presidents Day (whatever that means), the darn DMV was closed. One item off our agenda we go gift buying for  couple of occassions coming up. Then a bulb lights up in my husbands head and he mentions going out for dinner since its Valentines Day. We thought of trying a different place and head to a nice Meditterean restuarant. Hungry and literally seeing kabobs in my eyes...we find out that the Valentines Dinner special was $45 a plate. What amazed me was that the parking lot was full. Whatever happened to the recession???? We backed up and then stumbled upon a Thai resturant. It was really good. The food was good and we even got free dessert:) To end the day perfectly we watched Gran Torino. Definitely a good movie
