Wii Had So Much Fun!
Despite both Randy and me still fighting our colds, wii had a fun weekend. Friends came over Friday night for dinner and games (first a game of cards, then various games on the Wii). The photo above is of Chris and Randy playing the boxing game. Good times.
On Saturday we ran some errands during the day then got together with two more friends that night for another dinner…and more games (Wii and then Cranium….more good times).
Finally, on Sunday we slept late (FINALLY), ran a few more errands, went to the gym (ugh) and then got invited to our third dinner of the weekend. This time, we left Somerville, went to Brookline (via Cambridge and Boston), then had Cincinnatti chili! Look at that – world travel in just one meal!
All in all, a fun weekend. Alas, all good things must come to an end. It’s now Monday and Randy is still unemployed. Well, not really – he still has that offer. But while I slave away at the office, he’s at home watching ER and other shows he recorded on the DVR.
Life isn’t fair.

OK So let me be clear. I watched ER on the DVR by 915 in the morning. Now I need to shower and look for jobs. I dont plan on staying in and watching TV all day. No fun anyway.
I’m not familiar with what it is that makes Cincinnati chili different from all other chilis.
I think you might cut Randy a little slack–look at all those amazing places he took you to!
Henri IV said Paris was worth a Mass–surely South America and Japan, etc. are worth a couple of episodes of ER and a morning off.. 🙂
Oh, trust me….I’m just kidding around regarding Randy. Hell, a part of me is jealous!
1 – It’d be great to have a company fighting to keep me
2 – I’d love to be given two PAID weeks to “think about it”
3 – Although I’m extremely happy at my current job and have no intentions of leaving anytime soon, there is a part of the situation that makes me jealous: the element of possible change/adventure that this situation can bring.
You’re right, Will! This relationship with him has been (and continues to be) great for me (and, I believe, for him, too). I wouldn’t change it for the world.
Woohoo — I can earn my keep as an Ohioan. Cincinnati chili is an odd phenomenon. I grew up an hour and half from Cincinnati but hadn’t heard of it until college. The chief purveyor is Skyline Chili. See below to see how they prepare it.

You can get a 3-way, 4-way, 5-way, etc by adding on toppings. The core is spaghetti, with chili & cheese (tons) on top. Then add beans, onions, etc at will. And, of course, the oyster crackers.
It’s not a hot spicy chili (like Texas), but more of an earthy warm spices chili (cinnamon). The secret ingredient is cocoa!
Mmmmmmmmmm.
Btw, don’t ever eat at Gold Star Chili — horrible. ;-p
Best wishes, Mr. Randy!
