So far I have only eaten 19 of the 75 dark chocolate covered cherries that Neil gave me for Christmas. Good thing I haven’t gotten around to making my annual weight loss resolution yet. One of Neil’s resolutions is to go on a walk everyday. Last year he also had the same plan for us. We went twice. This year I can tell he is serious because he has excluded the main obstacle from keeping any exercise resolution: me.
Our holidays were non-stop fun. On New Year’s Eve we ate some steaks and watched videos. We decided we would watch 2 movies and we would each get to pick out whatever he/she wanted regardless of whether or not the other person would like it--then we would watch both. We met up in the checkout line and headed home to watch Little Man and The Devil Wears Prada.
Are you surprised that Neil, who is reading a 1,000 page bio of LBJ and wears cashmere sweaters, wanted to get Little Man? Well, maybe you wouldn't be if you knew of his love for dance movies....but only movies where street dance meets classical dance i.e. Take the Lead or Save the Last Dance. But in the end, Neil chose Little Man (the loaded with extra crap edition) over the new dance release Step Up.
Other highlights of the season included seeing It’s a Wonderful Life and The Wizard of Oz on the big screen, the Nutcracker, prime rib for Christmas dinner and of course, opening awesome presents like an iPod nano and my new swimsuit designed by Esther Williams:
And I thought it was cute that Neil wrapped everything he put in my stocking--even the package of mini travel garbage bags and the roll of quarters. I was less original and just threw the When in Rome CD in his stocking uncovered.
In conclusion, Christmas was fun and Beauty and the Geek starts tonight.

You made a killing, Hoss. This year for Christmas, we just volunteered at the local soup kitchen.
Little Man was a disappointment. But I still have high hopes for Big Momma's House and Big Momma's House 2. I just hope I don't have to wait until New Year's Eve 2007 to watch them.
I have to admit, the poster for Little Man makes me laugh...that's the one with one of the Wayanses in a baby bjorn, right? Never watched the actual film, however.
Glad to see you blogging again!
Yay! Marcy, I got the same ipod - blue. Don't you love it?
Cute swimsuit! IS that the fabric you got? Should I get one?
