A Shower for Chrissy

March 25, 2009 @ 7:00 am · Posted by Sah · Filed under Family, Holiday/Event

At the end of January Mom, Amy and I traveled to Sturbridge to help celebrate Chrissy’s bridal shower. We met up with a bunch of our family (Chrissy of course, Maria, Nonnie, Aunt Becki, Tia and Aunt Martha) and many of Chrissy’s family members and friends as well. James and Peter were there too, but went off to a local pub with some of Chrissy’s guy relatives to hang out. Meanwhile the ladies had brunch, chatted and watched Chrissy open a bunch of gifts ranging from the practical to the humorous. It was nice to meet some of Chrissy’s family and it’s clear everyone is looking forward to Chrissy and James getting married.

Reminds me of The Go! Team with half of the bouncy happiness drained out and replaced with M.I.A.

If there's one thing Aronofsky knows how to do, it's how to portray bleakness.

Reading:

Anathem

Author: Neal Stephenson

One of my favorite things about this book is that in this fictional world there are names given to ideas that ought to have names in the real world. For instance, Diax's Rake is the idea that you shouldn't believe something just because you want to. The name itself isn't that important, but I like that Stephenson recognizes that some ideas deserve to be acknowledged.

Red Dead Redemption

Publisher: Rockstar Games

Like GTA in the Old West, but so far, more interesting. I just hope that the buddy characters don't require the same kid-gloved hand-holding from GTA4.
