Old Time Family Values
Today, Elvira and I celebrated our Seventh Wedding anniversary in that tried and true way couples have for years: we bought Guitar Hero III for the Wii and spent most of the afternoon making really loud (and bad) music. It was great! I have a whole new respect for CC Deville and Dave Peverett. Poison and Foghat songs are far more complex than music snobs like myself give them credit.
Last night we saw Across the Universe (another tradition; did you know that the Seventh Anniversary is Psychadelic Musicals featuring Beatles songs? Me either. I thought it was flatware or cotton sheets). It was excelent. But then I’m always impressed by Julie Tamor, she has a really solid ans unique visual language and brings a lot of innovative staging technique from the theater. The scene with Max being drafted is amazing stuff. Highly recommended.
I think tonight I’m making dinner. That should be fun. Spaghetti and meatballs, all around!

Alas, I have yet to get Guitar Hero III, but I am happy to hear of your new found appreciation for Poison.

I admit when I’m wrong.

Congrats on the 7th anniversary. Tonight, we’re celebrating our two-months-and-one-week anniversary, which is observed by drinking gin and watching The Office. By sheer coincidence, that’s exactly how we spend every Thursday, so it worked out beautifully.
