Wow was it cold today, I just couldn’t stay warm.  I actually didn’t want to go outside today, but my roommate Peyton wanted to go out to eat and see a movie.  I’ve been trying to eat more at home since my latest annual physical shows my cholesterol is a tad high, but Peyton has been a bad influence.  I must admit Chicago does have some great restaurants, but I want to go back to my weight when I was living in corn and beans, LOL!

I saw two movies tonight, Milk and Slumdog Millionaire.  Both were very good, I was a little disappointed in Milk since the previews made it look more than amazing, but I still enjoyed the history.  There were parts of the film where I felt bored, they were all short lived, but there were times where the director just showed life and there was no active dialogue or action.  Slumdog Millionaire started out very strange and confusing.  I really didn’t remember the synopsis since I originally was going to see it downtown at a free pre-open screening.  One the movie started going tho, it was really interesting and captured my interest.  All I can say is I’m quite thankful for living in the United States.

Anyway, I’m off to bed, a little too late, but my sleep schedule has been off.  I’ve always been a night person, but 4 am is way too late even for my standards.  I’ve been trying to re-engage my online life, as some of you may have noticed since I’ve been so MIA in the past.  Once I moved to Chicago I found it too difficult to keep up online, sorry if anyone felt abandoned.  I still cherish my online friends and enjoy catching up.
