I have a week off for spring break at the moment which is great, but have a bunch of homework and a couple of exams as soon as classes restart which isn't quite so great. Since Ice had today off work, we went into Manhattan last night and saw Spike Lee's movie 'Inside Man' with Denzel Washington and a bunch of other big namers including Jodie Foster and Willem Dafoe - what a great movie. It was over two hours long but it certainly didn't seem it, which is certainly a good sign. Every actor in it was excellent, even the supporting actors who only had maybe a couple of lines, and it was so New York, regardless of the fact it was all filmed in Lower Manhattan only a few blocks from the movie theatre where we watched it. I won't say anything else about the storyline or the movie except this: go see it.

After the movie, Ice and I had dinner at a restaurant nearby which was pretty average food-wise, then headed home near midnight, happy and content - 'twas a good evening.

As Ice had today off work, we went shopping at Caesar's Bay in Brooklyn. It turned out to be a very good move as Kohls just happened to have some major clearance sale going on. We got some excellent deals - including two sets of Egyptian cotton 600 thread count bedsheets (queen size fitted and flat sheets plus two pillow cases in each set) that are normally US$170 a set, but today were discounted to only US$60 a set. I got a bunch of liteweight Nike sport shirts that were already discounted to $20, then it turned out when I went to buy them that they were further cut down to an amazing US$8 each. Ice also got a shirt and skirt that look really good on her for about 75% off - she got so excited, it was really cute.

That's about it for now - I have a few other comments, but I'm not really in a writing kind of mood at the moment, so maybe later.
