On Friday, Nov 30th, John, Emma & I met up with Greg & Mike S at Islands for dinner before heading to the Burbank 16 to see No Country for Old Men with Emmett, Patrick, Matt & Yvon. Islands was great… great laughs, great fun! The movie, on the other-hand, was not great for laughs or fun. I was severely disappointed with the ending. As I have never seen a Cohen Bros film, I did not know what to expect. Now I know I don’t want to see another! Ugh, I want my 2 hours back!
Saturday, Dec 1st, began with John & I heading to Santa Monica to meet up with my dad and his boss for a Board Meeting at the Spitfire Grille: great people, great food, great projects planned for the future! It was exciting! John & I are hoping to get to work on these projects, from an artistic standpoint!
After the board meeting, John & I ran some errands, then headed home to clean and prep for our Holiday Party! Around 7pm, Ryan, Lacey, Missy, Josef, Megan, Bobby, Casey, Sarah & Emily came over for pizza and fun. We exchanged gifts, and I got Cranium Wow! We started to play, but it was getting late; so, we switched to watching Scrooged. After the movie, everyone took off and John & I wanted some Arrested Development before bed.
Sunday, Dec 2nd, was a very nice day! John & I woke up somewhat early and headed into Downtown LA to wander around Broadway. We got a silver chain for John’s moldavite piece. I got a pair of Converse Hi-Tops (black/white) and Levis 518 skinny jeans. We had lunch at Clifton’s Cafeteria too… and what a great find that was! Read about this place on their site! The food was okay, but the desserts were amazing and the atmosphere was nostalgic. I loved it! I want to go back with a lot of friends for dessert one day, but they do close at 7:30pm; so, it’ll have to be a late lunch or something.
Once leaving downtown, John & I ran a few more errands and then headed home to relax. I heated up dinner, then we watched the Simpsons. We tried to watch Tin Man; but, after an hour and 10 minutes, we were both bored stiff, so we put on Arrested Development and I started to work on beading some jewelry for the holidays. A few hours of that, and it was off to bed. What a busy, fun weekend!!!
