Too Much Fun?

We left the house this morning at 9:00 a.m. and got home at 10:00 p.m. We started out by going to Jerry Story's A-2 dance, where Linda was my partner. Joe Saltel teamed up with Jerry today, and the two worked well together and even did two singing calls. They obviously love to sing together.

Jerry was calling in Tyler over the weekend, and just flew back this morning. He reported that there was snow on the ground and freezing temperatures in East Texas for the first days of spring.

We went to Subway for lunch and then walked around Lemon Tree, which is the park across from Mission Bell. It's a small park, with small spaces, but clean and well kept. It's mainly park models. Then we walked around Mission Bell, which is much larger and has more trees, but still fairly small lots.

We danced with Darryl Lipscomb at his C-1 workshop from 2-4. Hardy and Judy and Steve and Jan suggested going to Movies 6 tonight to see Blind Side, and we decided to join them, so we had 3 hours from 4-7 to shop and eat dinner. We ate at Mimi's Cafe. The atmosphere there is calming, with mainly instrumental music in the background. Later in the evening it has a jazz club, but at 5 we had it mainly to ourselves.

The Blind Side was excellent. We laughed and cheered for the heartwarming story. Sandra Bullock showed her stuff--she definitely deserved the Best Actress awards she won for the flick. We all agreed it was worth the price of admission (especially since we had paid 75 cents each for the tickets--what a deal!).

When we got home, we played another three rounds of Rummikub. As usual, Ken won two of them and increased his lead to 677 to 377. Oh, well, at least it's good mental exercise.
