Weekend Snowpocalypse Wrap-Up



Friday:

Snow!!! Got home around lunchtime & spent all day watching people wreck on Charlotte & get stuck trying to make it up the hill on our street. I felt like Pearl from 227. John finally got home & we ate dinner & watched The Aviator, which was amazing. Yes, it's 3 hours long, but still, amazing. Martin Scorsese, you are the master.

Saturday:
Cabin fever. Driveway & street a solid sheet of ice. My husband, the Eagle Scout, decides to shovel our driveway, which takes all day resulting in a half shoveled driveway, cracked asphalt & ultimately a broken snow shovel. Unbeknownst to me, while he was outside he was also pushing cars out of ditches, helping neighbors & generally being awesome. He also met one of our neighbors & realized he was the old sound guy from Exit/In. Apparently he works at The Rutledge now. Anyway, I was bored out my mind, but John had fun.

Saturday Night:
Still unable to leave our prison, I mean house, we walked next door & met our neighbors Mike & Amanda at Korea House. I had never eaten Korean food so I wasn't sure what to expect. It was so freaking good! I had the dolsot bibimbap, which was amazing. We also started with the seafood pancake, which I was scared of, but ate & loved. This might be my new favorite restaurant.

After dinner, we walked back home & watched Angels & Demons. I'm a big Dan Brown fan & both John & I read Angles & Demons & loved it. The movie didn't disappoint. Parts of the ending were different from the book, but overall it was pretty much the same.

Sunday:
Cabin fever reaching Donner Party proportions. Around noon, decided to risk it & leave the house. Went to Trader Joe's, Publix, & pretty much every store in the West Nashville Shopping Center, then met Mike & Chrissi for an early dinner at Cinco. Mike & John spent the whole dinner talking about Homicide & their shared dream of being a cop while Chrissi & I talked about hair & ghosts.
