so we saw Speed Racer today. damn, i liked that a lot more than i thought i would and it was *nothing* like i was expecting (i hadn't seen previews first or anything tho) frickin' *everybody* was in that! i liked it, i sure did :)
we also saw the next Narnia this weekend, which i also liked, despite whatshisface. yay swords! yay horses!
had lunch with my brother who reccomended us some crazy Russian film called Stalker. anyone seen that? apparently it's visually amazing and 3 hours long.
but what i really can't wait for is Wall-E. can. not. WAIT. seriously, watch the trailer. i nearly exploded with cute. i almost cried with cute :) i think that comes out June 27th? 26th? whatever, i'm THERE.
Kermit made his patented spaghetti the other night - i missed that so much - he used to make it all the time when he lived down in Pasadena. we practically lived on the stuff. SO good. he's the king of perfect sauce, imo. he's also learning French. did i mention that last time? maybe not...anyway, he's learning French :) it's kind of awesome!
i'm mostly over in the Cap Bar at Lazy Acres again, but still scheduled at least one day a week in the deli and going to therapy for my hand. it gets better all week and then i work a day in the deli and it's bad again - i see a solution here, yo. unfortunately, the Cap bar doesn't have enough hours to give me right now, so i have to stay in the deli at least one day, sometimes two. Maria's pregnant and going on maternal leave the first week of June, tho, so maybe it'll work out better after that. the big downside to all of it is that they are apparently going to make us wear hats in teh Cap Bar now, the BANE of my existence over in the deli. seriously. i cannot hack the hat. it obstructs my vision, constantly gets knocked off, ruins my hair (and believe me, i'm not normally one who cares about her hair, but when it's broken and frizzy all the time....well...) and OMG makes me feel SO unattractive, i can't even describe. i'm sure that sounds petty, but it's sort of amazing the effect that something small can have when you ahve to do it for 8 hours a day. anyway.
i also want to move. Kermit needs a new job, eventually and the job market here is more than pathetic. we're thinking north - Bay Area or something... i have no idea when that will happen, as it's contingent upon him finding work up there first, but i'm just totally done with being here. this place enchants me no longer! everyone else loves it but i never really have and now the weather has gotten wacky and it's much hotter in the summer than it used to be and it's just not my cup of tea. i've lived here, both in SB and in this apartment, for longer than i've lived anywhere else in my life...i need to move, if only to clear out all the crap we've accumulated in the interim :)
speaking of crap - if anyone is into nail polish and wants to pay for shipping, just let me know what colors you like and i'll gladly send you a box. i have WAY too much and it needs a new home.
