Weekend Endorsements
We had a fairly busy weekend. We saw two movies at the theater, Forgetting Sarah Marshall and My Blueberry Nights. I enjoyed both, although I wanted to gag Natalie Portman in MBN. I just don't care for her as an actress, and the fake accent she put on was so annoying. I thought FSM was hilarious, particularly the Paul Rudd character. I told Victor that every movie needs a Paul Rudd cameo... it would just make everything better.

We also took Murphy to Dirty Dawgs on Oak Lawn for a bath. It's a do-it-yourself dog wash, complete with blow dryers, scented sprays, and grooming tools. I usually just wash him in the tub, which is exhausting and nerve-wracking for both of us. He hated getting the bath at Dirty Dawgs (especially the blow drying), but it was so much easier than doing it at home.

I'll not mention about how he tried to run away from us by escaping from the dog park.

This morning, we went to sunday brunch at the Tipperary Inn for full Irish breakfasts. Even though they forgot to give us the grilled tomato, it was very yummy. We had never been there for brunch before, and I really enjoyed it. It looks like their summer hours aren't going to include brunch, so I guess that it will be a while before we have brunch there again.

Tonight, we're having a Mexican cookout with fajitas, chicken, sausage, avocados, yummy tortilla chips, and palomas. That, coupled with the epsom salt bath that I just took, will make for a great ending of a good weekend.
