Weekend lesson.

Typically, my weekends consist of multiple activities that keep my lady and I busy throughout.  However, this weekend is a rarity in the sense that we only have one social event lined up (a work party) and pretty much NOTHING else.  Thus far it's been epic in its own right:

Yesterday
4:00 p.m.-  Left work early.
4:20 p.m.- Took scenic Steliacoom route home from work.
5:30 p.m.- Sat on porch.
5:40 p.m.- Opened Rogue Irish Style Lager and poured into glass.
5:45 p.m.- Lit firebowl.
5:50 p.m.- Lit firebowl again.
6:00 p.m.- Finished beer.
6:02 p.m.- Lit firebowl for real this time.
6:05 p.m.- Opened delcious barleywine and poured into glass.
6:15 p.m.- My lady got home.
6:25 p.m.- Finished delicious barleywine.
7:00 p.m.- Sat down for corned beef + veggies dinner.
Somewhere around 8 p.m.- Started watching "Zombieland"
Approximately 9:30 p.m.- Finished "Zombieland" (lots of laughing in between)
10:00 p.m.- Went to bed.
10:05 p.m.- Started "Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back"
11:00 p.m.- Fell asleep early.

Saturday morning thus far
7:30 a.m.- Woke up.
7:45 a.m.- Played Wii.
8:30 a.m.- Turned on Chelsea v. Wolves and made breakfast.
9:00 a.m.- My lady awoke and we started watching Olympic curling together.
10:15 a.m.- Heading to Saturday morning yoga.

This list may seem drab to most, but believe it or not it's very nature was inspired by a principle rule that the lead character in none other than, "Zombieland" lives by during the movie.  Jesse Eisenberg (previously of "Adventureland" fame) plays "Columbus" in this off center flick and truly contributes the soul of the film as he narrates the viewer through it.  He has 32 rules that he lives by in order to live in Z-land.  Some of them can certainly be transferred into our land of the living, most notably #32, Enjoy the little things.  

You see most of us don't do that nearly as much as we should.  Thus, during this rare weekend that contains more of less to do than most...that's my central goal.  Take it easy.
