The Swedes are Evil
With Gina back in town, we quickly got down to the business of getting settled into our place. That meant new furniture, including dressers, a desk, and a dining table with chairs, so we headed to Ikea. Never again. Kind of like when I decided I would never move myself again, I will never buy unassembled furniture again. Huge pain to get home, and an even bigger pain to put together once it got there. Blech. I know it's cheaper this way, but so is moving myself. Who writes these instructions anyway, the Swedes? Sheesh.
Anyway, it's all behind us now, and we're all unpacked, so we'll soon be ready for guests. We can play Rock Band, which we just got for the Wii!
[Brook finally goes ten to New Jersey. A bit lower than expected, and he looks miffed, but he's still set for life. Plus the Nets will get Lebron soon, so he'll have a chance to win a title there.]
Gina started residency yesterday, and she's already doing her first overnight shift tonight. Tough to get used to... for me anyway. On the plus side, she gets Friday afternoon and all of Saturday off, which is the biggest chunk of time off she can expect to get. On Saturday we'll celebrate Steve's birthday and watch a crappy movie like Zohan. I actually didn't mind the idea of watching something so ridiculous, because I wanted to go to the movies and there was nothing else out there that interested me, but WALL-E is getting rave reviews, so now I want to see it. I should never have doubted Pixar, but the trailers just didn't look good. Dark Knight, on the other hand... can't wait.
It's a rare day this summer when I'm not taken out to lunch, but I had nothing scheduled today, so I headed to Google to eat with Tom and Dave (hey, I'm getting a free lunch one way or another). God I miss that place. The food was better than ever (my ridiculous plate: ahi hand roll, tilapia with mango chutney, pork shoulder, beans with bacon, caesar salad, and freshly made ice cream for dessert), and it was great catching up with everyone. Well, almost everyone. What's up with you avoiding me, Vicki, huh? Punk. I swear, if I had a box of styrofoam popcorn...
[Robin goes 15 to the Suns! Anyone still think he should have stayed? Set for life and gets to learn from Shaq, who will probably buy him a bunch of jeans. It's just too bad he didn't last till 21 for the Nets to draft him.]
I added a new box to the sidebar that'll show the latest entries from my blog roll. I'm eagerly awaiting Gerlad's review of step one, and whether he was able to fall asleep beforehand. Hope you killed it, Gerlad. We'll have to hang out this weekend... at my place!

I was back @ the Goog for lunch and asking about you on Monday.
Dark Knight on the IMAX FTW!
We should coordinate our visits better. :)
I heard you were coming to Google and hid, quivering in fear from the looming danger of styrofoam popcorn.
:)
Seriously how about a bbq to make it up? How's your weekend look?
The Lopez twins are the big hit of the 2008 NBA Draft :p
Check out Robin
