I was on the fence about the MATH last night, and decided to not succumb. I love the fact that Hoy is mixing it up, but I am trying to develop enough discipline so that I don't enter games that could potentially suck bankroll right out from under me. And alas, that means that right now a $10 rebuy is not a good idea. So I'll wait until the Mookie on Wednesday to continue my close-but-no-cigar sytle of play *grin.
Instead I worked on some Christmas presents for family (I took the Handmade Pledge for family gifts this year), and watched The Women filmed in 1939. I love old movies from this time period, and still can't quite believe I've never seen this one about friends, enemies, and gossip. The clothes are dated, but the themes are certainly long-lasting. The whole cast is women...not a man to be seen which amuses me as the whole story seems to revolve around men.

Tonight there are two games running; the Bodog Blogger game that I can't get into since I'm Canadian (booo Bodog!) and the Monkey game which is where I'll be heading. Formerly the weekly WWdN, the Monkey game is like the Friday Night Blogger game for me - fun.

Jules arrived safely on Sunday and we got to chat for a little bit as we hit the Swiss Chalet (you know the holidays are here when it's time for the Festive Special) before dropping her off. I'm glad to see her, even though the reason for her having to come is a sad one.
We're planning on getting together with the Martini Goddess on Saturday for a girls night. I'm so happy that the next two weekends are earmarked for nothing other than adult fun. Coz like I mentioned to Gracie in the girlie chat, we all need some BIG FUN now and again, and it's been a tad too long.

I should have followed your thought path and stayed away as well. I hate rebuys generally, which is why I stick to the Friday night $1 variety, because then I could care less if I drop $25 in the process. :)
I love The Women! It's dated in such a lovely, ironic way.
