Happy Monday, guys! I hope you all had a relaxing and fun weekend =]
A lot of my weekend was spent becoming addicted to the show Homeland. A few of John’s coworkers suggested that we needed to watch it, so they dropped off the season 1 dvd for us to enjoy.

On Saturday evening, we decided to watch an episode before heading up to bed. Well, one episode turned into 2 and we were up until about 1:45 am, which is WAY past my bedtime!
I immediately fell in love with the characters (even the bad ones!) There is such amazing acting in this show, it’s so much fun to watch. Even though I can’t tell if Nicholas Brody (Damian Lewis) is evil yet, I love his character! I first watched Lewis in Band of Brothers and absolutely adored him as Dick Winters. This is such a different character, so I don’t know if I am projecting his Band of Brothers role onto this one or what because he was such a good guy in B.O.B. Claire Danes is amazing as Carrie too! I can’t get enough! We even got my parents into it before the headed back to Michigan (you’re welcome, guys).
Last night we polished off the rest of season one and it left us wanting season two! Unfortunately, we don’t have Showtime, but we did find it on Showtime’s website for free (?) and watched the first episode of the second season. Love! Can’t wait to watch the rest of it! If you haven’t already, you should check it out!
Training Update
Yesterday, I had cross training on my calendar for the day. Due to watching so much Homeland, I didn’t get any cross training in per-say. I do, however, count chasing Alex around for a good 3 hours as a workout. The kid is fast and never stops moving! Best workout ever =]
My writing buddy woke up just in time for the end this post =] Have a great day!
