over the weekend

ok, i guess it's back to posting about things i did over the weekend, not much else to talk about...so! we've been taking advantage of my spring break (no class, no hw) and knocking off the movies on our netflix list! we watched brothers grimm (sucked don't watch it, i fell asleep), longest yard, and kingdom of heaven. yes, they have all been out on dvd for a looong time but we're that behind! longest yard and kingdom of heaven were both ok. the bad thing about netflix is that if you don't send in your movies to be received mon, you won't receive new releases for a loooong time. i've been waiting for walk the line but it's been on "Long Wait" for a few weeks now. sigh. i think it'll be another few weeks before we actually get it, bleh. but smart me caught on that for new releases they send them out on mon even though the dvd comes out on tues! so for movies that i really want to see, i have to mail them out fri or sat. so we'll be getting memoirs of a geisha tomorrow (the day it comes out on dvd). yippee

we also watched inside man, it's a pretty good movie. and jodie foster carries 2 birkins in the movie! oh, sat we went to great america for julian's company picnic again. we only rode top gun and invertigo (my first time). both are so short! great america sucks. they have a new survivor thingie, but it wasn't open yet. and the food was as bad as always. =P

sun we took tofu to a doggie park...we're trying to socialize her more with other dogs. man, she barks sooo much. it's embarassing to take her anywhere because she's so loud! i think we made a little tiny bit of progress. she actually sniffed a dog from behind without barking. but she still barks like mad when a dog is approaching her head on. and she scared this one dog so much that it started to whine..i felt so bad for him! other dogs kind of get mad and chase her around so they run around with tofu barking heh... just have to be careful that other dogs don't get so mad that they bite tofu! or that tofu doesn't bite them! it's kind of scary! at least the park we went to had a separate area for small dogs and big dogs, but we're going to try to take her there every week so she can get used to it. oy! it's so draining!

oh yes, and today was my lucky day! i was able to get through on the french laundry reservation line after only 3 minutes so i could make a reservation for dinner may 27th (memorial day weekend!) i've tried 2 times before last year, and i couldn't get through for 30-45 minutes both times! and by the time i did get through, of course there were no more reservations left. so anyhoo, julian and i had our phones armed and ready at 10am and lucky me was able to get through! hooray! now i hope the food is as good as everyone says!
