Living for the Weekend

Ahhhhh...the weekend draws near! What a whirlwind of a week. However, I happily bring it to a close today. The past couple days have been better than the first three, tis' for sure! I'm looking forward to a rather ghoulish weekend. I've gone into horror mode overload! My 'Netflix' queue is overridden with gore and galore. I'm getting a good head start on Halloween, I suppose. The big question is do I dare attempt to see 'Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning' by myself at night? I refuse to see a horror film during the day...that's so weak. I believe 'The Departed' will win out and I will have to hold out for 'Texas' until next week when I can see it with a friend. I'll just have to get my freak on at home with the rest of the movies.

I'm looking forward to a nice relaxing weekend though...not too many plans, which is great. Just housework and movies and some outside time too, since it sounds as though we're stealing another weekend from summer. Again, just hope we don't have to give it back next year! However, as nice as the nice weather is...I miss fall. Unfortunately, my favorite season is also our shortest and therefore, one more summer weekend means we're also robbing fall of another and that much closer to the winter ones. Ok, I'll admit (and not just because I'm a native 'Minnasohtin', don't you know now) I don't mind winter...the snow portion of it anyway. The extreme cold I could do without, but am certainly well equipped to handle it. Nothing screams 'hot cocoa' like a nice cold, snowy evening in MN. I love to hunker down and hibernate in the winter. Brr...now I'm cold. Hey, guess what...I have hot cocoa in my drawer, yay!

Ok...just a few more to go here in the office (speaking of 'The Office', great episode last night)...then I'm off to start the weekend. So long for now!
