I haven't posted for a week.
Except for vacations I don't think that has happened since I started this blog. I even posted once when I was in Moscow. Anyway I had Big Brother on campus last week for a scheduled visit and as such my time was taken both day and night. Things seemed to go well so I'm not expecting any major issues.
My busy period carried over into the weekend as I took in a basketball game and managed to get some things done around the house. I cleaned out my clothes closet, over seeded the lawn and got some badly needed computer work done. As a result my checking account is now balanced. Then I celebrated the seventy degree weather by washing and waxing my car. I have to admit it felt a little strange waxing a car in November.
I finished the weekend by catching Frost/Nixon on HBO and was pleasantly surprised by it. It wasn't at all like the documentary that I expected but instead an excellent drama. Frank Langella was terrific as Nixon. The facial expressions, the mannerisms and even the way he talked was dead-on. It was easy to see why he was nominated for an Oscar.
Finally I watched the terrific last show of the season of Mad Men. At times this season I struggled maintaining my interest in the show as the plot seemed to meander. But last night's episode was the proverbial home run. The episode seemed to strike the perfect balance between what was and what will be. It brought me back to the reasons I started watching the show in the first place. Now I can't wait for next season.
And now I'm back as well. Life is good.
