Tonight I made the best spaghetti sauce I have ever eaten. You all wish that you were at my apartment to eat it. Because then you would truly know that it was extremely delicious.

Basically the only thing that I did different than normal is that I decided to use italian sausage. Muy yummy.

I watched some NBA playoffs yesterday, and here was my biggest observation.

How is Clifford Robinson still in the NBA?

I think that is all for now, but today was a beautiful day here. I mean its some of the best I have seen in Oregon in April.

Not a lot of time to post today, but I guess I could review my weekend.

Friday night I crashed. I think it's about time for me to get another epidural for my disc problem. I have learned to live in such a way that I don't let it get to me too much, but sometimes I just have to take Aleve and go to sleep. So after a nice nap, I came upstairs and Ric had fallen asleep. What a fun pair we make! So while he napped I got Pip to fall asleep as well and watched tv while they slept. I like watching Discoveries This Week on the Discovery Science channel. Interesting stuff. Ric and I went to the Elephant Bar for dinner after that, and just came home to watch some Arrested Development on DVD. I'm so glad I got him hooked on that show.

Saturday I did the usual laundry at my parents' place. Ric and I went shopping at Best Buy and I finally picked up the new Morrissey album. I'm surprised any time I can actually find anything I want to buy at Best Buy anymore. They don't even carry the Charlatans anymore, and when I shopped in the classical section for Grace's birthday last year, they didn't even have any Philip Glass CDs. Lame! Then we bought Ric a bunch of clothes at Mervyn's so he's not bumming around in the same old stuff. Of course, we came home and watched some more Arrested Development. :)

Sunday we went to church and then I went to see Brick. I still want to research more info on the movie before I post about it, but I really enjoyed it. Josoph Gordon-Levitt is really starting to shine. It's funny to think that little George from Roseanne turned out to be a great young actor. After the movie I headed over to Ric's parents house to clean the car while he did laundry. The Mini is now completely spotless on the floors. I am seriously obsessive about cleaning that little car. I still need to go over the interior detailing, but that can wait for another weekend.

All in all, I got stuff done and got to sleep a lot too. Good weekend.

So pretty much all I did this weekend was work. I finished off my two weeks of working overtime on Saturday so that is good and now my bank account is very happy. I got to go to a fun party at a co-worker's new place and hang out with a bunch of people from work in a social setting. That was also very fun. It took awhile, but I'm finally making some really good friends at work. I've also been playing World of Warcraft at night and I'm up to level 8.

Work has been pretty cool this week because for two days I got to "shadow" as a lead. Basically I followed the leads around and even got to perform some lead tasks. Everyone said I did a good job. Interviews got delayed because we got swamped this weekend thanks to the wonderful 2fer ticket promotion that expires this week. For the first time since I've worked there, California Adventure sold out and we were turning people away while Disneyland remained open. It was insanity. I was told I would have my interview tomorrow so hopefully I will have my interview and find out something for sure sooon.

I saw Jon and Grace for the first time all week this morning. It's strange living in the same house with people and never seeing them because of my schedule. Things will go back to normal this week because I will have two days off and I won't be working as much. So Justin, if you're reading this, hopefully I'll see you sometime before summer starts. Heh.

So that was my weekend. How was yours?
