A Nice Weekend.

Ah, it's a gorgeous Sunday afternoon and I have to different curries cooking right now (Kurma and Rendang). Life could not be any better. I came back from the Olahs not too long ago. Joel called me right after Mass and told me to come over for brunch if I did not have anything going on because he made some turkey and both he and Kathy do not eat dark meat and they figured I would be interested in the meat. So, I motored over there for brunch which was really nice. It's been quite some time since I made it to their place. Since the weather is close to perfect, I'll be headed back there again later in the evening and this time there will be another couple joining us. Kathy will get the fire going in the grill and we'll just sit around the fire and shoot some breeze. That's the life I tell you. In case you're wondering why I have two different curries cooking right now, I figured since I'm in the mood to cook I might as well cook as much as I can. Needless to say the curry will last me for some time. I also have some spaghetti sauce in the freezer so I'm pretty much set with food for quite some time.

I hung out with Kristi, Brian and a few friends on Friday evening which was nice. Kristi knew I needed to be around people and just have a good laugh. Before that, I went to Drake for a free music faculty concert which was really neat. I fell in love with a Flute, Oboe and Piano Trio by Madeleine Dring. Something about it was very moving and I was not the only person who felt that way. I may even use the balance of the Barnes & Noble gift card to get the CD of the music. That's how highly I thought of the piece.

The weather was perfect for biking and I went on a pretty long bike ride on Saturday. When I need to clear my head or think about other things, I usually bike and it would have been a travesty if I did not bike yesterday. I even bumped into Sonia and David while I was biking. Charlene told me at Mass today that they are training for a marathon. She too was there at Gray's Lake, but she was reading.

Next weekend will be the first of many classicial concerts that I'll be going to. I think it ends up being one concert almost every other week which is nice. I've been looking forward to the start of all my concerts for some time and I can't believe the day is almost here. Yay! I don't think there's other stuff to report. It's just been a nice weekend for me to clear my mind and to start the week afresh. I'm looking forward to the reports slowly arriving over the week. Work is always good because then, I can focus on the job. That's pretty much it for this week.
