puppetmakerYesterday was nice and simple. Get up. Eat Breakfast (Eggs Benedict). Open Presents. See Movie. Short Nap. Dinner. Visit Friends. Watch Doctor Who. Go to sleep.
Today is a little more complicated but has a pattern to it as well. Ariel is coming down from Knoxville for a visit. I have lunch with a childhood friend sort of planned which will firm up a little later this morning. I am planning on doing laundry here rather than back at home. We will pack or repack depending on how you look at it. And tonight, unless plans change, we are going to start the trek home.
The movie we saw was Into the Wood. A musical that Peter is rather fond of. Overall solid performances and a good translation from stage to screen. Bonus points for not Disney-fying the ending and going with the one from the play. We figured out that they could have done a number from Mama Mia in the middle of all that because they had the three female leads from that film in this one. This one does have enough going on that the large screen helps sort it all out. I would not say that 3-D will add to it.
New Who Review on Monday for the Last Christmas. Overall I enjoyed it. One of the darker episodes of the series. I am trying to find something out before I write my review but more on that on Monday.
Since we will be traveling, I have no idea if I will be posting or not the next couple of days.
I am grateful for time with friends even if it is short.
