Vows, Vittles And Violence
Before delving into our normal weekend recap, I would like to take a moment and wish my brother, Josh and his new wife a lifetime of martial bliss. They wed yesterday afternoon in a cozy little ceremony that was as joyous as it was brief. I love you, bro and I hope you find marriage to be as much a blessing as I have.
And now for the rest of the story…
Friday, we finally had the opportunity to watch 300. Oh man, that movie RAWKED. I intended to do a full blown review, but as I’m very late to the game, I figured it has already been reviewed to near death. Perhaps, when it comes out on video, I’ll address it then.
After the movie, we decided to take a little trip to the casino, but it seems we have used up all of our gambling luck last year. This weekend’s trip marks the umpteenth time we’ve left the casino with nothing to show for our efforts but a thinner wallet. We’ve decided to take a long, long breaking from gambling.
Saturday, we decided to treat ourselves to some Coconut Shrimp and Prime Rib, at Outback Steakhouse. I have to say, this is one of my all time favorite restaurants.
We picked up a few movies and spent the rest of the evening cuddled up on the couch. Can you think of a more splendid way to spend a lazy Saturday? We watched, Smoking Aces, Déjà vu, and Casino Royale. I do intend to give a proper review for all three this week, but suffice it to say, these were all damn good flicks.
Sunday, of course was the big wedding day, so we didn’t do much else. It was good to see two people, so obviously in love, make such a commitment. After the ceremony, we took them out to Texas Roadhouse for dinner. Those boys cook a mean steak.
Oh, before I forget, if any of you are going to be in my neck of the woods (yes, I’m speaking primarily to my usually silent dozen or so friends who read but never comment) on May 5th, I’m having a watch party and cookout for the Oscar De La Hoya vs. Floyd Mayweather fight. If you plan on attending shoot me an email or give me a call, so I know how much food to buy. No one leaves the Goodman house hungry. I’m just saying…
So, how did you spend your weekend?
