Friday: munch fun. We discussed the level of crazy in the scene, found it was more efficient to try and find a non-crazy dom than go through all the crazy doms.
Saturday: cleaned the house, including handwashing the floors, washed my car for the first time by myself, planted a few more veggies (eggplant, corn, tomatoes, beans - and something keeps digging up the seeds), and Heather brought the girls over for dinner. I made a roast, she brought over the potatoes & carrots from St. Patrick's Day dinner, and we had a carpet picnic. After dinner and petting Tito for a while, I took a bath with the girls - Bella just wants to use all my tub gadgets like my pumice stone, and sophie had a death grip on a Tinkerbell. They got into their jammies, and played a bit more, then left to go nigh-nite at home.
I was going to go out on Saturday night, but it got too late, and I punked out. I think I knew I wasn't going when I didn't put my makeup on - you know I'm not going to SF without makeup!
Tuesday: Bounce house place in Belmont with Bella & Sophie - so much fun! That was a workout and a half
Friday: Sleepover with Bella was awesome, but the actual sleep part didn't work - I took her home for her bedtime
Saturday: Bella's last ballet class, Heather & Bella met me at my house, then we walked to the Red Morton Community Center. Heather took off afterwards, and Bella & I played, planted some stuff, chased the dogs and watched Little Mermaid
Movies I've watched recently:
Invention of Lying - enh.
Percy Jackson & Lightning Thief - better than I expected. I look forward to the inevitable sequels.
Spartacus - TV series, watched the first 2 episodes. Great cinematography, and the story isn't half bad.
Ninja Assassin - ugh. Turned if off after the 17th blood bath.
Cop Out - I think I expect a new Clerks with every Kevin Smith movie. This one wasn't up to even mediocre standards.
Legion - for a horror movie, it wasn't too bad. I didn't have to watch through my fingers, but the story was only so-so.
Alice in Wonderland - the amount of hype for this movie was so huge, I think I would have been disappointed if Walt Disney came back from the dead and had sex with Johnny Depp on-camera. (Ok, maybe not.) Maybe I'll like it in future viewings.
Shutter Island - A better story than I thought, and more than I expected from Leonardo Dicaprio.
Informant - not bad, better than I thought.
Leaves of Grass - wow, that's one crazy movie. Edward Norton as twins, one a redneck, one a brilliant geek. I'm in heaven!
Godfather Trilogy - of course I've watched them, but not all in a row. Great as always.
Pretty Baby - rewatch, a great movie. People get all up in arms about it, when it's just showing another way people live.
Archer - fucking crack, amazing show! "Put it back in the deck...."
Dark Victory - overacting, sure, but Bette Davis is always awesome.
Marked Woman - Wow, really young Bette Davis, Humphrey Bogart, and the guy from Miracle on 34th Street, I think.
Norma Jean & Marilyn -rewatch, great dramatic retelling of the crazy that must have been leaking out of Marilyn's brain all the time.
Searchers - good, for a John Wayne movie. I don't normally don't do westerns, but it was something on in the background.
