Beautiful weekend

This weekend has been very nice. While out driving today I saw some bluebonnets. It’s nice to know that Spring is just about here. Fall and Spring are by far my two favorite seasons. Neither is too hot, nor too cold.

So far I’ve had a great weekend. On Friday night I went to the San Antonio Rampage (AHL..hockey minor league team for the Phoenix Coyotes) game with Joe, Liz, and Sid. We had a great time. I got the tickets from work and, as usual, sat by the glass. Funny thing about the game…no fights! The last game I went to in November had three brawls…not fights. In fact one brawl took place after the game. Oh well, at least I finally saw the Rampage win. After the game Free Reign performed in the Overtime Pavilion. Free Reign is a heavy metal band made up of three Dallas Cowboys linemen (Marc Colombo, Cory Procter, and Leonard Davis). The show was great…and the drink specials were nice too.

On Saturday I saw “She’s out of my League.” It was pretty darn funny. I admit it is a borderline chick flick, but I think it’s one of those rarities that can easily appeal to both sexes. It has all the raunchy humor guys find funny, mixed with a little mushy romance. I’d definitely see it again. The film does a good job of showing why one shouldn’t judge how they feel about themselves based on how they see others. There was one spot in the movie that sort of brought up the past for me. Kirk (main character) broke up with his gf, yet she still hangs around the house with his family, along with her new boyfriend. Not to reveal too much, but eventually Kirk realizes that he is worth more than he originally thought, since he was only going on what others made him believe. He eventually understands that he deserves better than his ex and that she never deserved him in the first place. Let me get an AMEN from the congregation.

Well, I hope this evening goes as well as the rest of the weekend has gone. Time for a new week…yay.
