Not much new really. :) Had an ok rest of the week and a relaxing Sunday. Here is a very cute picture of my favorite cat Ollie. :)
This week was busy as always. Saturday started off bad when a co-worker didn't show up in the morning but developed overall better than expected.
Went to dinner at Two Steps in downtown Danbury. The food was worth going outside and enduring the brutal cold for a few minutes during the walk from the car. Had a very yummy filet mignon and some vanilla bean ice cream for dessert.
Didn't do much today. Mostly relaxed and surfed the web a bit. I should be writing letters since I am totally backed up with my correspondence. If any of my pen pals happen to be reading my journal .... I am very sorry about taking so long to write back. :) I will try and do better.
The weather is supposed to be really yucky (snowy, icy, wintery mix) the next couple days. I am SO ready for spring. :)

Not much new really. :) Had a very lazy weekend.
I can't believe it's already Sunday night again. Just found this pretty picture and thought it was perfect for a new weblog entry. :)
It was snowing again today. It's also been very cold lately. We had wind chill temperatures as low as minus 30 °F.
Another work day tomorrow. Jay (the guy from Texas) will be here again tomorrow so that probably means another long day. :)

Had an "interesting morning". Got up as usual and noticed that our cat Dinah was acting very strange. She was not sitting down and didn't want to be touched and was obviously in some sort of pain.
So we called the vet and after some arguing back and forth got them to give us an appt. at about 9:15. Mike went to work and I stayed with his sister Kristina so we could bring Dinah to the vet.
She was not very happy when I put her in the carrier. Thankfully the vet is only about 5 min. from where we live. She behaved very nicely when we were at the vet and was acting like an angel. They looked at her and found out that it was just a bunch of her long fur stuck together and blocking her back so she couldn't go to the bathroom. Poor kitty.
They shaved her on the back and she is fine now. Thank god. We dropped her off at home and Kristina gave me a ride to work. I got here a little after 10 o'clock so I have been catching up ever since.
I am just glad Dinah is fine. I always get scared when something's wrong with one of the cats.
We also found out that Nanny is coming home tomorrow. It's been a little longer than two months now so I am sure she is happy to come home.

It's been freezing cold here in the Northeast of the US. We had lows of -5°F (-20°C) with some wind so it felt even colder. Despite the cold we had a fun day yesterday. Was at work till about 5:45 pm.
After work we went to catch the 6:09 train down to the city to Grand Central. Had a couple drinks at Grand Central and then took the subway for one stop.
Went to see Rockapella which was really cool. They don't have any real instruments but use their voices to imitate all the sounds of the instruments (drums, base, ...)
Click here to listen to a sample song. And here is their "biggest hit": The Folgers Commercial. :)
After the show was over we went to a close by bar and had some more drinks and buffalo wings. Was a cool little place and fun to hang out at. We didn't pay any attention to the time and all of a sudden realized that it was already after 1 o'clock. We were lucky that there was a cab right outside the bar so we were able to get back to the train station quickly. We had to run but did make the 1:30 train which is the last train out of the city.
Since it's the last train it makes EVERY stop between NYC and CT. We were finally home at about 4 am. So I haven't been doing much today. A sleepy day today. :)
