Long long weekend

Took an extra day off for the APEC long weekend. Memorable highlights:

  • bought a 24" monitor that was on sale for $599. Now we've got to get the Mac Mini to go with it.
  • D. quote (while playing with his soccer medals and awarding them to people): "Baby E. wins the Nobel Prize for Kickboxing!" (further research indicates it is a simpsons quote, but I found it hilarious when he said it anyway).
  • A. being discovered riding his bike around in the rain, wearing only socks (his galoshes had fallen off). He was thoroughly soaked.
  • D's writing has massively improved - he was writing a lot this weekend.
  • Saw Ratatouille with the kids. Quite entertaining, and while it lacked some of the substance of previous Pixar movies, it was entertaining, and beautifully animated.
  • Tomb Raider Anniversary edition gave me vertigo and sleep deprivation.
Off to Canberra for a conference later in the week, to be joined by J and kids at the weekend for Exciting Times In Sunny Canberra.
