Saturday night we did indeed cook out in the blizzard. Having a screened in balcony and an electric grill makes that possible. Unfortunately, my stomach was having issues and a few bites of food was all that I could muster without throwing up.

We also watched Repo: The Genetic Opera. Wow, just wow. I think Rob hit the nail on the head when he said it seemed like a cross between a Troma movie and a Baz Luhrman movie. All in all, it was very enjoyable. I really liked it and my only complaint was that sometimes when they broke out into song, it didn't seem right. In a musical people tend to break out into song when their emotions are so strong that normal words won't suffice. This wasn't always the case, but it still was a very good movie. All in all, I'd recommend it. Besides, what other movie can you see Sarah Brightman, Anthony Stewart Head, and Paris Hilton in? Interesting cast.

Sunday the snow had stopped and everything was plowed out. We did the rest of our errands. We stopped at the pet food store to get Sydney some more of his dry food (California Naturals chicken and brown rice). We stopped at Hallmark so I could get a birthday card for my dad. We then headed out to the Johnson Creek outlets to get some new pyjamas for Gabriel. In a few months, he'll need summer pyjamas, t-shirts, and shorts. It's easier to buy them over time and spread out the cost rather than getting them all at once. I found a few cute pairs at Carter's, but not the amount I was looking for. While at the outlet mall we also noticed that a Coach outlet store is going to open there sometime this year. Score!

After that outlet mall we headed to Kohls where we were able to pick up a few more pairs of pyjamas for Gabriel and a Wonder Pets t-shirt as well. We then headed back to our neck of the woods.

Before heading home, we stopped off at the Fresh Market to pick up dinner. For last night's dinner we grabbed some rotisserie chicken. For tonight's dinner we grabbed some stuffed peppers that we'll cook up tonight.

Last night we watched The Amazing Race and gamed. Today is a normal weekday. I'm with Gabriel, we're watching some shows on PBS Kids, and I'm getting the sheets washed up.

You are garlic.

Of all the spice types, you are the most universally loved. You get lalong with pretty much everyone, and you leave a lasting impression. You adapt yourself well to situations. You can fit in or stand out, depending on what you're called on to do.
