Accountability

If you share something with someone there is a bit of accountability that goes along with that shared knowledge. That's my philosophy for the week. Victoria's was that if you don't like eating something that you should just keep eating it and eventually you will like it. So, what is it that I would like to share. Well, this morning I woke up at 6:30 naturally, an entire half hour before my alarm would wake me up. I had told myself the night before that if I could wake up even 10 minutes before my alarm that I could get up and do pilates before I had to wake up the kids. Getting up early was phenominal! So, tomorrow my goal is to wake up at 7:00 or ealier again. I'll let you know how it goes.
A bit of criticism: 1. Saw is not a slasher, but very disturbing. I like a bit of suspense, but I guess I prefer some resolution. So, I would rate Saw as one of my top ten most disturbing movies, closer to the number 10 position. 8 mm, Quills, and Titus are closer to the top 3. I wouldn't say that they are the worst movies, just the most disturbing.
2. Adam and I ate at Bob's Big Boy and I would give them 2/5 stars. Service was O.K. and it wasn't super pricey, but quality lacked. I'd rather eat at the 5 & diner for a sit down and be served burger or at In & Out for really tasty fast food, both are better quality in my opinion. We probably will not give them repeat business, and yes we did fill out a comment card.
3. We tried checking out Las Vegas Athletic Clubs. It was a blessing that the guy we were ready to sign a contract with, if we were going to, was not there today. I'm
glad that we are loyal, because on the way out of the parking lot Adam decided that he would be so stressed out dealing with the traffic that a membership there was out of the question. I had the same thought cross my mind on the way there. So, I guess Adam will have to keep running the roads, and doing push ups at the house, and I will continue to use home video workouts.
4. For a more posative movie review, V for Vendetta was enjoyable! I think after watching it that Adam will read it! As with any book, of coarse it was better, but there is just so much that you take notice of in the book when you're looking at vs. it's 2 second flash on the screen, Ooooooh, look at all the pretty lights. How sad are we as a society that so few of us read any more. You know you are who you hang around with. I guess my mom was right, but I am glad because my friends all read, even the guys, who seem to be as a whole less likely to read. I just need to finish what I've been in the middle of for a while now. I have really been enjoying Independent People, but it has been such a journey, so many characters!

Totally agree on the whole "Bob's Big Boy" experience (the one on Craig???). Service absolutely SUCKED, and the food (a sandwich, I think? Whatever it was, it was very forgettable) was waaaayyy below even fast-food standards. Can't wait 'til the Ruby Tuesday's opens up right next to it! (May already be open). Pretty good food there, typically. PS--You and Adam ROCK! Last time we saw you guys was at Jeff & Linda's (like 3 years ago?). Take care for now.

Hey sis, I happen to like being at home more also. yeah theres the nice equipement and free classes, but I could buy a workout video or two every month for the price I would pay to go to the gym. Thats just my though. Plus with the kids I can barely get out of the house to go to the store!! Love ya Liz
