Dinner Dates and Musical Umbrellas...

Having dinner with friends tonight. Should be a very nice evening. I don't think I will be able to adhere to Atkins tonight. To be honest, I didn't adhere to Atkins today. Yes, I had soda. ...and a cookie. ...and some popcorn when I saw "Intolerable Cruelty" --- which I didn't really care for. However, I must state once more for the record, "Kill Bill" kicked major cinematic ass.

Oh, it will cost $2K to fix our car. Sucks. And I suspect it will take more than a day or two to fix. This means I will be car-less for a while when we put it in the shop. Karl is happy to have me car-less.

Oh, I finally found the soundtrack to "The Umbrellas of Cherbourg" or "Les Parapluies de Cherbourg" for those of you who can speak French. I love the movie and have been looking for the soundtrack ever since I first saw it back in the early 90's. I must say I was crushed to discover that Catherine Denueve did not do her own singing.

We are also having dinner with one of my fave co-workers tomorrow night in Boston. I want her to meet Karl. It should be a fun evening as well.

We are, at the moment, debating whether or not we might put our condo on the market and move back to Boston. I have to say we are leaning toward getting back to the city. We may have had our fill of the burbs. The two very big downsides to this potential change will be leaving all of our friends here in Salem as I am worried we might lose them and losing our own washer/dryer which I love. It will be a tough decision. Plus, we will never own anything in Boston. At least not in this lifetime. Still we could make a tidy profit if we sold. We could actually invest and create a bit of a nest egg. A nest egg without an owned home. Hmmmm...
