Backblogging - for historical purposes only:

Friday - After work. Take Nick to Marshal Fields 8th Floor Auditorium. Charlie and the Chocloate Factory. Great choice. Personal favorite. I'm excited. Ready to tell story to kid. Ready to point out animatronic oompa loompas and the original Veruca Salt. Kid ignores dad. Sleeps through whole thing. Gets nothing out of it. No $4 gingerbread man cookie for him.

Saturday - Rise and shine. Cocoa Puffs. Coffee. Soccer. Used office furniture store. Need a cheap filing cabinet. Turns out they're not cheap. $80 for a beat up 4-drawer. Forget that. Dinner. Molly arrives to babysit. Off to First Avenue for kick ass Trip Shakespeare reunion show. 3 hours. Packed. Lots of older fat dudes with ponytails. Like a unix convention. Highlights: too many to list, but back to back Slacks / Toolmaster probably tops overall. More please.

Sunday - Capture Saddam Hussein. Head down to Rochester for Santa brunch with Puds and Dunns. Crab legs -> eggs benedict -> crab legs combo a decidedly bad choice in retrospect. Slumber party tummy. Over to other grandparent's house. Home to cities. Stop to nurse at Cannonball. Gas station hot cocoa. Yum. Arrive. Unpack. Read. Watch Tivo'd Survivor. Scream. Bed.
