Weekend of Warmth

We spent the weekend in Logandale, Nevada, where Nils' parents live. It was warm and lovely, and I was fooled into thinking that spring had arrived over the face of the earth. Not so. We stopped in Cedar City on the way home and I stepped out of the van and into a snowbank. So sad. So, so, sad.

Here are some weekend hightlights:

• We played the Wii. Should I be embarrassed that I've never played before now? If not, I'll tell you that I am embarrassed that I think I have tendonitis in my elbow from all those rigorous Wii bowling and tennis games. My elbow is killing me. Pa.the.tic.
• We shopped in St. George and ate at In-N-Out. Nummy. After that, I started to feel my fat roll growing, so I declared that I would give up treats for a month. About 4 hours later I ate a brownie and some peanut M&M's. Today, I have rededicated myself to the cause. Nils is even doing it. We might be a grumpy pair for a few weeks.
• There is nothing at Tai Pan Trading that I want. We went there on Saturday, and I decided to break up with TPT. I'm leaving it for Ikea. Harsh, I know.
• Nils and his dad went on a little photo adventure in the Nevada desert and got lost. They left at 4 a.m. so they could be back by 9 a.m. By 11:30 we were all wondering if they were being eaten by vultures...they were in the middle of nowhere and had no cell service. They eventually made it back, and by golly I'm glad.
• Nils single-handedly ruined a competitive game of PIP by hoarding dominoes and then messing up the ones that had already been played. Nils, Nils, Nils. He decided that since he wasn't winning, he was going to lose big. People were angry.

That's it. I would post pictures, but the sad fact is that I'm too lazy. I figure if I wait to blog until I feel like uploading pictures, I'll never blog. One day you might see some new pics of all our exciting exploits. You just might.

Good night to you, my blogger friends.
