weekend

Friday night - Leah and I went on an 'Annex Date'. The Annex is where we end up when we want to get out, but don't have anything specific we want to do. We stopped in at Kensington Natural Bakery, and then looked at CDs and books in CD and book stores.

On Saturday, I went on an epic trip to acquire a new sound system for our apartment. My style of shopping (especially for somewhat expensive items) is to try to look at every available option before making a decision. This meant that I ended up at Best Buy, Circuit City, and Bay Bloor Radio, and ended up at each store TWICE! (Once to see what was available, and then again to actually buy stuff, which was complicated by items being out of stock etc...)

Anyway - I ended up with a tiny Sony shelf system, and a separate turntable... Compared to our last cheap setup, this one sounds much better, and will actually play CDs every time you want it to, and not according to some mysterious timetable of its own choosing.

That night we ended up back in the Annex for dinner and a movie at the Bloor. I thought Leah would have lots of reasons to dislike Fantastic Mr Fox (talking animals, Wes Anderson...), but we both liked it.

On Sunday we did laundry, and some cleaning of the apartment. We also went to church, which was good. We are gearing up for a series on the Fruit of the Spirit - check out the first of a number of videos over at the FreeChurch website.
