Happiness is...

Buying 19 books (which scored a minimum of four stars on Amazon) for $8 at an estate sale in Linden Hills. Fun stuff, great house, good company (mom & auntie) and a delicious lunch (Broder's).

Have many, many stories to share about Xmas...not enough time to even begin. Going to go see Dreamgirls with Shel. Don't want to be late.

Z is like for Zodiac

Shelly and I went to the movie Zodiac last night. The theater was nearly packed with mostly men and couples, so it was a bit obvious when two teenage girls talking on cell phones walked into the movie 20 minutes late.

At the end of the movie, Shelly stopped by the ladies room and I waited outside. The two teenage girls we saw walk in late also went to the ladies room with cell phones glued to their ears already.
