Update from the last entry: Mom and Dad have offered to take Orion back to New Jersey with them when they head back up after the weekend of Spiderman's birthday party. I'm ok with that because I know their vet. I'm also wondering if he'll adjust more quickly if I don't bring him there. I do have to get him Valium for the trip because traveling stresses him out. And then the yowling stresses the people in the car out. So, Valium and sleeping is better for everyone involved.

We tried a new chicken chili recipe for dinner on Sunday, and we are having the leftovers tonight. Is delicious. I served it with yummy cornbread, which we can pretend is healthy, ok?

A few weeks ago, I woke up to PB saying, "Lose a pillow." I was confused, until he explained that what he meant was that I had fallen asleep on two pillows instead of my normal one, which causes me to snore. But, seriously, caused confusion out of a dead sleep.

Friday, we went to the new Cinebistro in town. Eh. We did not eat, because the food had gotten a terrible review that day on richmond.com. Considering the fact that our popcorn sucked, which may or may not have had something to do with the fact that we got the dregs from the bottom of the popcorn machine. Thanks for the popcorn crumbs, Stony Point Cinebistro! All in all, our experience was only ok. We agreed that we wouldn't be in a hurry to go back, and we definitely didn't see any reason to pick that theater over any of the others in town.

The movie we saw? True Grit. Overall, good movie, although I would have liked to feel more emotionally connected to the characters.

When we came out of the theater, it was snowing. Beautiful movie snow. That, my friends, was the fabulous part of the evening.
