Farkle

Farkle is an interesting game.

Yesterday the boys went with their grandparents to BKS and got a game for all of us to play after dinner. They came back with farkle. It is similar to Yahtzee. We played after dinner and I have to say it was pretty fun.

This morning mom made eggs benedict for breakfast- yum. The funny thing was after breakfast my oldest asked when the rest of the family was getting here. I asked why and he said it was because he likes to be entertained by more than just his new mysterious iPod Touch and South Park dvds, lol. I told him they get here Tuesday.

Today we are going to go ice skating at a local rink. I suck at it and the boys are willing to try it so why not.

Tonight I have a dinner date with my youngest. He and I are going to go see The Fantastic Mr. Fox and then dinner. I told him he could chose the restaurant and of course he went with Olive Garden- oh joy.

I will have a dinner date with my oldest Wednesday evening. He wants to go see Sherlock Holmes which I am psyched to see. I am almost certain he will choose Olive Garden as well.

So, according to some reports China has now overtaken Japan as the world's second largest economy. I still don't get how we accept the data from the Chinese government at face value. I can't find much argument with assuming China will become the world's second largest economy but I am not sure when. Hell, they will over take us in time.
