On New Year's Eve Matt suggested we make eating sushi on the last evening of the year a tradition. Awesome! For the first annual event we had a leisurely 9:00 meal downtown... and I'm just now realizing he didn't order sushi, but chicken fried rice! Oh well. After dinner we walked through the touristy souvenir shops, listened to a band outdoors and stood in a long line for something hot at Starbucks. After a few fake midnight countdowns in the crowd, we and the rest of Annapolis welcomed 2011 with a pretty impressive fireworks show. (There was also an early bird display at 8:00 that we watched from inside our apartment. Very cool!)
On Saturday the 8th, Matt played in the Apple store at the mall while I went to a baby shower. There was also some grocery shopping, cooking and cleaning thrown into the mix.
This Saturday, the 15th, we did some major couch potato time. The only thing that got us up was Matt having told his coworker we would listen to his band play in Baltimore that evening. However, upon arrival at the tavern we learned the band had already left! Turns out he Ravens were playing a big game and everyone wanted to watch football instead of listen to music. We laughed, left and walked around the corner to eat mussels cooked in Old Bay & Guinness before driving back home... where we resumed potato status on the couch.

I did order sushi.
Matt...you surely did not inherit your parents "non-sitting" genes at your age. But you did, however, inherit Brucie's gene of loving food!! Go figure???
I do not want to be anonymous!!!!! You obviously did not inherit your brains from your mother. Do you need a PhD to reply to this blog???? Gesh!!!
Ahhhh yes. Now I do remember a few California rolls next to your mound of chicken fried rice...
yep, Brucie would have ordered the sushi and a lot more! it sounds like a rough life you two lead!enjoy it all.
