Low key weekend
Spent a low key weekend. Sheila took me to see Cowboy Junkies for an early birthday present Friday evening. Another great concert at the Mountain Winery. They were excellent, and the evening was only marred by a trio of women behind us who had a running commentary through the whole evening. Being a non-confrontational type of person, I didn't smack them. But I wanted to. Especially during all the songs where the one girl kept saying "this song is my favorite", "Margot is so coooool", and then she would sing along. Normally that's ok, but the Cowboy Junkies are so mellow, it wasn't cool.
Saturday was spent at my friend 
Natasha's house. She just had a baby (4 months ago) and they had a bunch of friends (11 of us) over for barbecue and a rousing round of Cranium. I know this game has been around awhile - I have seen it at Starbucks for years. But I had never played and I am wondering why. It was a blast. All the games you are familiar with rolled into one (pictionary, charades, trivial pursuit, word problems, logic problems, sculpture, singing, improv, etc), with some twists. I don't know if this is old hat for everyone and I have been under a log, but I feel like I just discovered a hidden world. Anyway it was great fun, met some neat new people and was able to visit with old friends and play with the baby. If you want to buy it (or anything else) for me, my birthday is this coming Wednesday.
Spent Sunday catching up on house type stuff and scouring ebay for accessories for the new camera. Still have some outstanding auctions, but it looks like I will have some new filters to play with. Am planning a trip back east week after next, so look for some new photos.
