It has been a long time since I ve had a working weekend . I thought semi-retired and working weekend were supposed to be mutually exclusive. OK, I really didn t think that but I like to say mutually exclusive . As you know if you ve been here in the last few days, I had a proposal casino nova scotia hotel due today and, as the book leader, casino nova scotia hotel I m responsible for the final edit and uploading it to the customer website. There was a time in my history when proposals had to be finished days early so they could be mailed or were hand carried casino nova scotia hotel via airline at the last minute. Quaint, don t you think? So, this is better. And Friday, casino nova scotia hotel I received an email from the attorney I ve been retained by as an expert to review some additional documents. Yes, after years as an employee, I like to say retained by , too. But I m busy.
Still, Date Night is Date Night and with some late nights to finish up the proposal, we managed to have fun, too. Saturday night, we had dinner at Islands and then saw the new film, The Trouble with the Curve , starring casino nova scotia hotel Clint Eastwood and Amy Adams. Critics, 51% of whom gave it a negative review, said it was plodding but good-hearted , but the plodding but good-hearted, mostly gray-haired audience, us included, seemed to enjoy it. As a man who loved The Graduate and A Man and a Woman in my twenties find it sad that films with a brain and a heart and no violence draw few younger patrons. Sunday, we got half-price casino nova scotia hotel tickets on Goldstar to the premier of Overlooked at the Chance Theater casino nova scotia hotel , an interesting new play by Brian Nelson. In Overlooked , installation artist, Cooper K, whose career has fallen on hard times, casino nova scotia hotel recruits a homeless man, Rail, he picks up near the freeway to sit in the gallery and beg. His installation is indeed a hit, but it brings surprising consequences for the Cooper and Rail, as well as interesting insights casino nova scotia hotel into how we see artists and the homeless. I liked it a lot Muri said it was well-done but too depressing. casino nova scotia hotel One of our differences casino nova scotia hotel is that I see the humor in dark situations and she doesn t, which is fine. The Chance Theater is amazing. After the theater, we picked up dinner for four at BJs Grill and took it to our friends house, since one of them has been having trouble with vertigo and hasn t been able to go out much. We had a fun evening catching up on each other s lives while trying to keep their Labs away from Muri, who s afraid of big dogs. Of course, they were most interested in the one person who didn t want to pet them.

It was nice that you were able to get some fun time in with the working, Bud. I m very happy being retired, casino nova scotia hotel but I sure would like to make a little extra money, as long as I didn t have to work too hard. I don t even mind working hard, as long as it s on my terms.
