Speedo Santa Run

On Saturday, I went to watch Syriana with Rob's lab (and had a mini-engagement party at his advisor's house afterwards). The movie was pretty good. I think you have to know about the history of the region to fully understand the movie. I found it very thought provoking movie, and I find that I keep looking back and thinking the message, history, and perhaps the sad hopelessness of the situation.

We went to the Loews on the Common to watch the movie, and we got there just in time to see the Santa Speedo Run! I could easily have spent my lifetime not having witnessed this event. Who in their right mind wants to see 100s of men running in their speedos?!? I didn't even know the run existed. It was really funny though... although there was one guy in a g-string that was decidedly not funny. The hardest part was trying not to laugh when two guys slipped and fell - it made me feel mean, but I just couldn't suppress my giggles!

On a very happy note - I finally have my real ring. I love it! On the planning note... still no closer to having a set date.
