Weekend Update October 10, 2010

Good week this week. Work is going well and life on the home front is routine – which is good. Had the brakes done on the Focus – 92,000 miles – which is a very long life for brakes. Of course, most of my commute is interstate so the brakes don’t get used or abused.

Went to the Boston College at State game Saturday, of course. State was hitting on all cylinders – offense and defense. In fact, the last meaningless BC touchdown was when State’s bench was in and both teams were expected to just run out the clock. I think it ticked off Coach O’Brien because when we got the kick off – he let reserve quarterback Mike Glennon throw the ball and move down the field. We almost scored another touchdown before time ran out.

It was hot sitting in the sun. The temperature may have been in the mid 80s but it sure felt a lot hotter than that.

Next week State travels down east to East Carolina Teachers College. State will be favored but the Pirates also have a pass oriented offense. Fasten your seat belt - there could be 80 points put up in that game.

Thanks to brothers Dave and John and their mom for going to the game with me.

Printed out the photo taken at the Dook - Army game for Chip, Erica and John. Put them in frames and dropped them off on the way home.

Sunday

Met up with Serxner for breakfast. Then came home and did a little housekeeping and yard work. Nothing special - just another lazy Sunday.

Took some time in the afternoon to watch Julie and Julia on Netflix. 4 stars.

This week I'm going to start power washing the deck. It should be mild when I get home and that will make for more pleasant work. I try to clean the deck yearly. Otherwise it can be a real chore if I miss a year or two.

Bill,

Julie and Julia was pretty good in my book as well.

Have you watched 180 degrees South? Travelogue type of movie, I enjoyed it.
