Friday was a bit of a relaxing night. We rented a couple movies from blockbuster and cooked a pre-made pizza. The movies were alright overall. The first, A Lot Like Love, is a romantic comedy that was actually fairly entertaining but very forgettable. I struggled to come up with the title of the movie just now until Kim reminded me that Ashton Kutcher was in it and then I used the IMDb to come up with the title. It’s not a bad movie but not really good either. The second movie was Friday Night Lights, a movie that I’ve wanted to see for awhile. I’ve heard comments about it being the best sports movie of all time, which I now feel is not quite correct. It was a good movie and definitely more entertaining than the first movie, but I’m still not sure why a movie (and previously a book) was made about this team. They lose to state championship in the end! I really like how the movie displayed the towns addiction to their high school football team. The team that wins the state championship game in the end is Tyler Lee High School from Texas, the same team that Colerain (Cincinnati school) will be playing this coming weekend. This game features last year’s Ohio state champ versus last year’s Texas state champ, I’m curious to see what happens…

Saturday we woke up early to participate in a tennis clinic of sorts at the gym. It actually went much better than I was expecting and our team even won the competition, despite having both Kim and I as part of the team. Afterward we were treated to a free brunch which included your choice of bloody marys or mimosas. From there we hit up the pool for an hour or two and then headed back home to unwind for a bit. We had plans to go to the Irish Fest, but we never quite made it out the door again. Instead we watched a few college football games and then called it a night.

Sunday I almost died. We ran over six miles in the middle of the afternoon. If it’s up to me, I will never run that far after noon again. It felt pretty good to actually make it that far, that is after I finally caught my breath, 30 minutes after the run was over. I only have to run this far one more time for the actual race. From there we watched The 40 Year Old Virgin with Ashley. This was actually a really funny movie. I almost hit the floor laughing on numerous occasions. I don’t know if it is as good as Wedding Crashers, but it’s definitely a close race. Afterward we went to O’Dowd’s and met up with Todd for a few rounds. It was nice to sit on the deck and as an added bonus, it wasn’t packed! From there we finished the night off at Tomfooleries with Mike.

Monday we had breakfast at the Corner Restaurant in Westport. It was really good, I highly recommend this place! After that we went out and played nine holes of golf with Mike. I think we all played really well actually. Much better than any other time we’ve played that course. From there we picked up Dominique and Bianca and took them around to do some errands with us. Once we got back to our apartment we cooked chicken kabobs on the grill and made brownies for desert. The food was great and I think everyone stuffed themselves. After dropping them back off at home, we went over to Mike’s place to watch part of a football game and to play a game of Euchre with Christie. It’s was a busy day as you can tell.
