| Closing off a week |
Today I ate lunch at a Viatnamese Noodle House called Jenni's. The curry was great, and would give Pho a great run for his money. Now apparently Madonna eats at Jenni's; I asked Jenni if she could tell Madonna to put her legs away the next time that she is in. I frequently eat at Pho.
After lunch Al took me over to a few bus stations to look into gettting to Mexico. Mexico is going to be to Houston what Bocas was to Panama; last minute planning is going to be present - not sure about the roommate this time around though.
Downtown Houston is decent. I'm going to argue and say that for the size of our city,etc that our downtown district is heaps nicer, and maybe even that you'll find the Calgary skyline picking Houston up after school. It's a major project here right now, to re-vitalize the downtown sector, and to attract people into the area. The Houston Toyota Center is an example of a major entertainment venue that recently opened in downtown Houston. I mention it because if you follow basketball at all, the NBA all-star game was held at the Toyota Center last night.
 We stopped in at a really interesting shop, that sold alot of art, and just plain random stuff. That is where I ran into the Jesus Magnets and buttons, along with some other funny stuff, that some people might find questionable so I won't post; (instead I'll bring it back for you as a gift)
My Spanish lesson went well. My teacher, Brigette, is an industrial engineer. She moved from Ecuador 5 years ago, and works for Mitsubishi Caterpillar Forklift here in Houston. Make sure to keep that in mind the next time you are shopping for a Forklift. Chances are I could score you a deal. (you can thank me later). It's a good thing that the lesson didn't take place in a parkade tonight, otherwise you would have to call me Nolan. We went to a spanish restaurant; my stomach has been interested in learning spanish as well. It was more tex-mex style spanish, if I know enough to make the distinction. It was not bad though; the name is Mi Luna Tapas, in "Rice Village", just in case you're interested the next time that you're in Houston..
If you've considered seeing the new Harrison Ford movie, Firewall, don't. I'll save you the time - It's a bad action flick, and Harrison Ford isn't even cute. If you've already seen it, sorry I wish I could help you get your 90 minutes back.
I'm been moseying around on the local Houston MLS system the last few days. Is Houston going to be the new Panama? It's inevitable that I'm going to see another 3brdm+ house with a swimming pool in my price range, so it might just be.
Tomorrow just arrived and time is closing quickly for Body Worlds and Sheryl Crow. I should run; I still have a bachelor party planner and a real estate agent to contact. Before though; In case you enjoyed the other Jesus button:
There is alot of political jokes here. Recently involving Cheney, but Bush is involved in his fair share.
