There Goes Another Weekend...

But the good thing is that, this was a relaxing weekend (well, not really relaxing) and not one of those "wake up at 3p, grab something to eat and head straight to work till mid-night" weekends I had couple weeks ago. We are at the tail end of our release cycle, so in terms of development, things pretty much quiet down a little. There probably will be some fixes here and there, plus a lot of catch up with reviewing documentation, but "shouldn't" be too hectic.

So back to this weekend. Saturday was a trip to Chicago for haircut. I figured it probably would be nice to get one before the Chinese New Year. Normally if I am going to Chicago for a haircut, most likely it would just be me since it's difficult to convince King Snort and MyEvilInsideYou to come along (let just say oriental food is not their type of cuisine). However, this time, I actually had a travel companion. He started at my company in January, also from HK, and driving 2.5hr to Chicago for a haircut totally make sense to him. Perfect match for me. Ha ha ha. So that was what we did on Saturday: Dim Sum > haircut > Mitsuwa > WoodField > Bowl House (dinner). I think we were seriously short on time - didn't even get a chance to hit Ikea. Maybe we'll need to cut WoodField next time.

Sunday of course was the Super Bowl Sunday. Jamie once again organized a Super Bowl party at his place. Like he mentioned in his invitation e-mail, it was the 3rd year he organized the party (can't remember whether I was at the first one though). See Faith running around was cute - it always amazes me how quickly she grew up. :P There were a bunch of no shows, so we even ended up with packed sandwiches to take home. So let me take this opportunity to thank Jamie once more for the hospitality.

The game was quite fun to watch. I seriously thought that the Giants would be dominated by the Patriots, but apparently that wasn't the case. Tom Brady really couldn't do much throughout the whole game. And the last quarter was absolutely amazing.

2:45a already? Definitely my regular time to head to bed. :P

Brady was attacked so MANY times.. he got attacked even b4 he could throw the ball. i only watch the first half and the score was 7-3 then. what a bummer for the Patriots, all wins in the season (18-0) and then lost in Superbowl. If Giant lost in Superbowl, Boston would be wining all three major leagues (baseball, basketball, and football) this year. -WittyBB
