Date Night

Our first full week back at work after the holiday madness proved to be a busy one - work for me, soccer for Frank. We barely got to see each other for an hour each night, so by the time Thursday came around, I was missing my hubby and declared a mandatory date night! I left work at 5 on Thursday, was home and changed a little after 6, and out the door we went. It was a perfect evening - Dinner at Restaurant 3 in Clarendon, a stroll to Barnes & Noble to kill some time, a stop at Starbucks to warm up, then an 8:00 showing of Seven Pounds. I even stayed awake for the whole movie - Bravo to Will Smith, it takes a lot to keep me awake after 9:30 lately! I really enjoyed the movie - a different role for Will. The first 45 minutes of the movie really have you asking "what on earth is going on" but then the pieces start to fall into place. Let's just say that I walked out of the theatre thinking that maybe I should do more to help others...
