Today marks one week until I go on my 7 night cruise into the Caribbean and I think this will be an amazing trip. We're both really excited about it and I can't wait to go spend that time with Marissa on the ship. It's going to be a great time and it's so weird that it's almost here!

Unlike yesterday, I was quite busy today and hardly in the apartment. Between all of the little errands and things I had to do, I didn't get back into the apartment to actually relax until about 4pm so now I'm taking it easy for the rest of the evening. One of the errands I had to do was pick up a jar full of green chili from Garcias. A friend from New Mexico is in town and graciously brought it to me so I can't wait to have that for dinner tonight (and tomorrow unless I can't help myself from eating it all tonight).

Last night we went out to dinner with Josh, Sarah and Erin and I think it was fun. The food was good and not terribly expensive and it was nice being out with everyone again. What tends to happen is time goes by between seeing our friends and I forgot how much fun it is to get out and do something. After dinner Glenn joined us and he, I and Josh and Sarah wanted to go to a bar so we tried out the bar at the Sheraton Safari hotel. It wasn't a bad place and the bartender was a nice guy. There was this one guy there that was completely belligerently drunk although he kept his distance from us so it was amusing. We had a few beers and had a good time talking about lots of different things.

Well, my green chili is calling to me like Aztec gold to pirates so I must be going to stuff my face with awesome chili.
