sundae sunday!

yesterday stephen and i got together with a few friends for our first ever sundae sunday.  we each brought a different type of ice cream and two toppings.  it was so fantastic and delicious!! only one question came to mind: why did we not think of this sooner?!

television

stephen dug up our “rabbit-ears” antenna from storage (mostly because he really really wants to watch the olympics). and so, for the first time in 5 months we watched tv last night. it was so awful. we watched most of “greatest american dog” which was ok. but then ended up going down to the store and renting “be kind rewind” and i thought it was so cute!! anyway. i got to watch letterman, and i’m happy about that. maybe it will be better once the “real” shows come back on?? probably not.
