Our last two weekends have worn us out!

Yes folks, I know it's been some time since I last posted. During the week I am usually to busy commuting to and from Smith and Wesson out in Springfield, MA, and during the weekend I have Jessica running me around doing errands like there is no tomorrow (makes for a fast but great weekend).

Let me begin by telling you all about the last two weekends.

1st Weekend of October, 1st and 2nd
Awhile back when Spamalot came to Broadway, everyone in the world tried to get tickets, including us. We were very unsuccessful at our attempts but were fortunate enough to have friends of ours, Addie and Ryan, stumble across some seats when her mother visited the box office. Although the seats were listed as obstructed view, you will soon see that they were some of the coolest seats in the house.

Have you ever wondered how you go about getting the box seats near the side of the stage? Well, so have I, and you know what? Those are the seats we got! Fine they didn't have the best view of rear stage or right stage but what really goes on there anyway (actually that's not a rhetorical question, what did happen on side and rear stage ;) j/k). We took some pics of the stage and the seats for those of you at home.




Of course we stayed at Tom and Michaels in NY and were able to have brunch with them on both Saturday and Sunday. We were even lucky enough to enjoy a fall walk to one of our Favorite Bakerys in NY, Magnolia. This is the perfect place to walk to on a Sunday morning when the weather is clear, plus you don't have to worry about lunch since you usually fill up on their cupcakes. I didn't know this at the time, maybe Jessica did, but while searching for Magnolia's website (still can't find it) I found out that Magnolia was featured in an episode of Sex and the City. Never being a big fan myself, I really didn't know or care ;).

2st Weekend of October, 8th and 9th
Ok fine, you got me. This weekend wasn't really very busy, nor did we do anything that exciting. However, after much debate, I finally purchased a Flat Panel TV. While I didn't pickup the TV I was originally going out for, I picked up a great one for an amazing price. This Sony was the TV I purchased.

I was originally going out for a Sharp Aquas but I found this Sony that was an open box buy at Best Buy. All told we saved ourselves about $550 off the original price, even after the purchase of a 4 year warranty! I think we made out pretty well. That, coupled with our new TV cabinet, adds about 5-10 square feet of living space to our living room, a huge amount of space in a 640 sq foot apartment!

Here's a picture to make you all a little jealous.
