We had a sitter for SuperPizzaBoy. Sweeitie and I were going to go bike riding on the river but it was hot and I had already run 5 miles yesterday morning so we decided to cool off at the movies.

First, we were not hungry so we went to Starbucks for some cool drinks. She had a Frapaccino (aka “toxic waste with sugar”) and I had one of their new smoothies. It was chocolate but they had it mixed up with some stuff like protein powder. It tasted ok but I prefer to separate my junk food and healthy food. Mixing these two basic food groups messes up the flavor of the junk food, and is yet not all that healthy. But, hey, I drank it.

We went to see Mama Mia. I’ll make the obligatory comment that it is not as good as the musical. Nothing ever is, is the big secret.

That aside I liked the movie better than what the reviews led me to expect. It was entertaining. I recommend it to anyone.

3/4 of the way through the meeting Sweetie got her regular call from SPB. She let it go to voicemail. He calls her to say that he is worried about her and misses her and wants her to come home. It is kind of sweet, but he really is anxious. We play along, no use making a big deal out of it and at least he is learning to use hte phone.

Sweetie, spys and a friend of hers, we chat a little bit and go home and put the little guy to bed. Then we have snack for dinner.

Another marital date dow!
