To say Saturday didn't go as planned is a vast understatement. It all began as I tried to meet up with a guy who bought my Alabama tickets on Ebay. He couldn't tell me when he was going to be in town and decided to call me periodically as he drove down. This made it difficult to shop for groceries as we had planned that morning, so we had to wait for him to get into Tuscaloosa. We decided to meet at the McDonald's around the corner from us. For some reason, this guy thought we were meeting across the street at Winn-Dixie, never mind that I had said McDonald's repeatedly when talking to him. Thankfully he decided to drive over to McDonald's and I met him in the parking lot. If Erika hadn't pulled up beside us so that I could escape to the car, I might still be there listening to him.

I was happy to sell the tickets especially after finding out that Alabama lost to Louisiana-Monroe? How did that happen? I sure hope that I can watch the Predators game Saturday night after Auburn takes a bazillion point lead in the first half. Any team that gets beaten by a minor school like Louisiana-Monroe can't possible think they stand a chance with an SEC powerhouse. (This is probably the only time you will see me refer to Auburn as a powerhouse)

So instead of watching a dismal game, we made the trek to Birmingham to watch Beowulf in all it's digital, 3D glory. A review is forthcoming, but it was a complete letdown. At dinner, we chose a Japanese restaurant because Erika wanted tempura, but we ended up getting Chinese (at the same restaurant) because they didn't have tempura. Not to say that dinner was bad, but like the rest of the day, it just didn't go as planned.
