First Day of 2010

Yesterday boyfriend and I had the best day. A little laziness, a little productivity, and lots of kisses. It's so easy to make me happy haha. Here's what we did:

• Slept in a bit
• Made coffee - Starbucks French Roast (my fav)
  
• Good breakfast of hard boiled egg and fruit
• Played some Gran Turismo 5 Prologue (boyfriend's brothers bought him a PS3 for Christmas & he bought this game for me-I love racing cars)
• Ordered a new couch - We've had our eye on this one for a year or so, but since the futon recently broke, we went to replace it asap
• Got more Starbucks :^)
  
• Bought a couple things at Ruehl - they're closing our store, actually all the stores (going out of business), so everything is super on sale
• Chipotle for lunch!
• Watched a movie on Xbox/Netflix - Romancing the Stone (I loved this movie when I was a kid & haven't seen it in forever - now its a bit cheesy)
• I took an hour nap
• Watched an episode of Friday Night Lights on Xbox/Netflix
• Finished our bottle of wine from Jessup Cellars in Napa Valley (there wasn't much left)
• Had a snack of bbq popchips & i had a cup of strawberries
  
• Found an extra power cord for my bro to have & made plans for him to come over Sunday
• In bed by 1030pm

Here's a picture of our couch, from the website. We ordered the color 'cream' in a twill material and plan on buying a slipcover to keep it safe and fresh. And actually, when we put the new flooring in our condo, it will be a similar shade to what's shown here.

 Super simple day & so relaxing. Those are my best days. What about you, what did you do yesterday?

Endless Entertainment

I've had my Netflix account for a few years now and I love, love, love it. I'm finally getting to see all the classics everyone scoffs at me for not having seen as a child. Also the tv shows that I never bothered to record. Plus a gazillion foreign flicks I have to watch multiple times to understand it all. Currently I have about 350 dvd's in my queue.

And then, what luck! I discovered that my man's XBOX Live account can link directly to my Netflix account and I can watch movies instantly, without having to wait for the dvd's to come in the mail. So for the past year I have been watching movies through the XBOX 360 (had to learn to use it first). Right now I have about 60 dvd's in my watch instantly queue.

I pay for my Netflix account every month, he pays for his Live account every year, and it doesn't cost any extra to marry the two. GENIUS!!! On average I probably watch about 5 shows/movies a week on the Xbox and I'm just waiting for it to get old...which sounds redic...but for me, it's guilt-free entertainment and I'll never cancel my accounts.
