Today was a very nice day. We saw "X-Men: First Class" which I enjoyed very much. I was also pleasantly surprised to see a familiar name in the credits: Spiro Razatos, who prior to his current career in movie production used to be an aerobics instructor. No lie. After the movie we took a stroll around a car show, then had lunch at the Irish pub nearby. We both had the Guinness meatloaf with bleu cheese gravy & mashed potatoes, then split a peanut butter Nutella brownie which was quite tasty.
Making good progress on the current pair of socks. I was going to make them anklets, however there's a lot more of the green yarn left after turning the heel than I thought there would be. I prefer my socks to be a little longer so this is definitely a good thing.
There is a new bookstore where the old Borders used to be. Actually, it's an old bookstore in that what they sell appears to be primarily used books. Ralph picked up a couple paperbacks. I didn't see anything that caught my interest on this trip, but who knows what they will have next time. It was a little surprising to see that in addition to books they also sell used videos, DVDs, CDs, cassette tapes, and even LPs. It was rather like being at a large specialty garage sale.
Lastly, I came across this awesome list of assault prevention tips. I think everyone can benefit by following these simple rules.
