Random RL this and that:

Carried through on my promise to kidnap my bro and sis to take them to see Up. They enjoyed it.

My sister's summation upon exiting the theater: "It was sadder than I expected, and happier than I expected."

Then I overheard her telling my mom about the movie on the phone later, before dinner. Score!

I will say that I preferred the 3D to the 2D. Nothing wrong with the 2D, but having seen it in 3D first, now that I can compare I do prefer the former in the visuals dept. Really cool.

Also this weekend I started on my plan to get into better shape in preparation for my hiking vacation next month. Desk job with no real exercise after hours has taken a bad toll on my fitness level. Now I know that I do have muscles, because I'm feeling them. Yay me for starting, now I need to continue sticking with it.

On the plus side, my brother -- who has been nagging me to get into shape because when we're hiking he doesn't want to be held back by my winded out of shape self -- asked me "what weight?" in response to my saying I wanted to lose 10 lbs. in the process of getting into shape. That was nice, seeing as he doesn't pull his punches in this department. So apparently he honestly thinks it's just an endurance matter, nothing more, in terms of me needing to shape up. Never mind that I know exactly what 10 lbs. I'd like to see gone, lol.
