Dec. 9th, 2007 07:24 pmI have survived the parental visit. My parents came over in the morning after buying us MORE stuff (doormat, filing cabinet, etc) and then we went out for breakfast. After breakfast, we returned to my place and ben gave them our tv. Hopefully with both a semi fancy dinner last night and a tv today, there is enough bribery to keep them from yelling at me later.
Once we were free, I taught ben how to put air in the car's tires. Then he took me out to see the golden compass. It wasn't too bad but felt very rushed. It made me want to read the book to see what I missed.
I was delighted that ian mckellen was the polar bear.
From the movie theater, we went on a quest to find a new tv. Ben found one at costco that he liked. Then we used out mighty brains and muscles to figure out how to get furniture from one room into the other with all the other furniture in the way.
He is currently fighting with the computer to get the right set-up on the tv. It keeps displaying too wide despite the directions ben gives it to do otherwise.
I think I may go to bed early tonight. It has been a very exhausting and stressful weekend.
