Therefore Let Us Be Happy While We Are Happy

by Rainier on Aug. 21, 2011 @ 12:00 a.m. PDT | Filed under MOTD

Next month, we're heading to New York for a little vacation, which we coincided with the US Open tennis tournament, so we had planned to see our favorite Kim Clijsters in her bid to defend her title. We have our plane tickets and tickets to the women's final, only to find out this week that she will not be competing due to a lingering injury. Talk about bad timing!

Yesterday was spent lounging around, running some errands, and going out to a fancy dinner, after which we made a failed attempt at watching The Green Hornet. This is the second time we've dozed off while watching it. The movie is not too bad, though it's a little weak.  In our defense, though, there was wine involved.

Later today, we might watch The Change-up, since we have free tickets to redeem toward an older movie.
