Star Trek.

A guy from my previous job (Dan), emailed me to say that he saw the new Star Trek movie. Apparently it was great. I will probably never see but would like to. Just not that much into it and I'm notoriously picky about movies. The ones that interest me normally end up as stinkers anway. I'm looking at you, Pink Panther and Pink Panther 2 with Steve Martin.

Oh dear! So Miranda has come up with our 10 year anniversary trip. Last year, Paul, Jane, Aaron, and Lindsay went on a rv-ing trip to Oregon to see McCormick family. They are going next year and have invited us to go along. I will get to see some Western states now. I'm not too sure about all the nature stuff though. Hiking, camping, sightseeing. Just doesn't seem right. However... I'm in hopes of finding a truffle farm to tour. No luck so far but there's a year to search for it. Plus I will get to see the Pacific ocean again. Maybe I can go sailing and/or see some lighthouses! So why the "Oh dear!"? I'll be spending over a week with my mum-in-law!!! Oh dear! I'm sure she'll make life interesting. The rv parks at least have WiFi so I shouldn't go too crazy. I'll find interesting food also. It will be a lot of fun and they speak English unlike the other plans that we had.

Tonight is a "sit at home night". Although we might try to call Jon and Sheila and see about getting a cat. I just don't know if I'm up for that tonight though but we have to do it THIS WEEK! Can't avoid the inevitable.

Livemocha has really calmed down so my grading is slacking off. Nothing for a couple of days. I need to buy a microphone though so that I can record myself speaking French and get graded on that. I'm sure I will sound hideous.

Miranda has 2 more days of school. She does have to go in on Friday but no children. Lucky duck. It will be a lot more interesting around here during the day with Patrick and Nellie here.
