I think television is a waste of time, but I watch it anyway. Well, actually, I canceled my DIRECTV subscription over a year ago and I haven't missed it. If there's something I really want to watch, I can almost always watch it online.

Anyway, I am not afraid to admit that I absolutely love "Make it or Break it" on ABC Family. It's pretty silly, but still very enjoyable. Also, I am not afraid to voice my clear preference for Damon over Razor. What the heck is up with Razor? He's seems possessive AND stoned. Hrm. Damon is clearly hotter and also seems smart.

I found out that the guy who plays Damon has a band called Fairlene in Los Angeles. I would consider going to see them play. Also, I saw some photos of them on their MySpace and was amused by the fact that they have played the Cat Club. Heh.

It was pretty good and relaxing.

Dave and I "vacationed" at Club Maybauer in Santa Monica so we could puppysit. There were definitely times when I was tired that I thought to myself, "There's no way I'd ever get a puppy." But then again, Denali (puppy) is super cute and fun. So, it wasn't bad, just a bit tiring at times!

We ate some good food, but otherwise spent most of our time chilling with Deni. (We tried our best to stick the basic schedule and all things considered, I think we did a good job!)

On Sunday afternoon, we walked down to the 3rd St Promenade to do some shopping. In recent months, we have both made an effort to spend less money, so we splurged a bit... nothing too big, but just some small clothes. Our favorite trip was to J.Crew, where we both saw pretty things that we loved and wanted. We did buy some stuff, but there was a lot that we liked and resisted.

I used to really love Banana Republic, but it's lost a bit of luster in the last few years. I find a lot of their clothes to either be matronly, or to have really ugly and tacky prints and patterns. There are some nice things, but I tend to like their men's selection much better than women's. J.Crew, on the other hand, might be a bit reserved and preppy, but the colors are gorgeous, the styling is great, and the clothes are classy. They exercise a restraint that helps their clothing seem so much more expensive and high quality. And the colors... let's just say that I'd do my colors very similarly. <3

I think Dave has been liking J.Crew a lot lately, too. He bought a shirt there and was eyeing this really nice coat... We got out of there before we could spend too much money!

Oh, and we watched one of the street musicians for a while. We didn't stay long, but I bought a CD and thought he was pretty decent. Maybe I'll see him play again sometime?

All in all, a decent weekend...
