More randomness

So to catch up a few random events of the past couple weeks.

I saw a beautiful movie recently, you have probably heard of it...Slumdog Millionaire. It is so wonderful. I'm rooting it for a best picture at the Oscars. It is funny, sad, romantic, everything. It is a love story about a lowly guy from the slums of India who winds up on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire (India version). The movie through a series of flashbacks shows how he was able to answer each question on the show and how each question relates back to the girl that he loves and the reason he is on the show. It might just be the best movie of 2008.

I've been pretty active in my sorority lately. Teleconferences, planning, meetings, social events. It's part of my trying to stay connected with old friends and get new ones. Part of my new year's resolution was to be more social. So I'm starting a recipe club and a supper club with the girls in the group...plus a few friends (that includes you Beth, if you're interested). I sent out an email and facebook'd some people and got a lot of interest. My target date is Feb. 6th for the first recipe club meeting. The night before my sorority's Founders' Day. Which reminds me I need a dress....gotta go shopping. :-)

I planned another baby shower at work. This was for one of the secretaries at my office. It turned out beautifully, and now I'm sort of the unofficial party planner for the office. We had the shower at noon on Friday and it just so happened that noon, Julie (the attorney having triplets at my office) was at the hospital about to deliver her three babies. She had them at 1pm on Friday. Crazy, huh. Three perfectly beautiful babies, all things considered. Check out their blog at http://leclercqfamily.blogspot.com/ for an update on their status.

All the baby madness makes me want to buy baby stuff and reaffirms my belief that I want babies some day. I think 2012, Year of the Dragon, sounds good to me. :-)
