We got to see The Hobbit last night, late showing but totally worth it. I liked it, overall.

Captain America is my favorite Avengers movie so far. It had a great story, IMO, good characters, nice (but subtle) effects. Chris Evans dose a good job. I like how he actually had comic books written about him.

Sucker Punch on the other had was very depressing. It was interesting, the effects were awesome. A very interesting take on the whole ( Read more... )

I'll preface this with: I have lower standards on movies than most. Entertained = good ( Read more... )

My face has been aching all day, giving me a horrible headache. Being in pain makes me grumpy. Always has, and I think it's an OK reaction. However not a good mood to be in when one is doing customer service. I'm pretty sure I pulled out the fake smile and happy voice all day when needed.

exarian lent me The Hunger Games, I finished it in like 2 days. It ( Read more... )

Harry Potter 7.2 was good. I liked it. My only complaint was that Harry seemed to have a varying amount of stubble from scene to scene, even in the same sequence. But that is a minor point. Dan was great, I love Maggie and Alan. It had a slightly slower/sadder feel than 7.1, which is good for the end of a series like this ( Read more... )

The weekend was nice. Drove up Friday with my cousin Nate and his GF Courtney. Saturday was pretty low key, saw mom, dad, and grandma, cleaned for the party a bit, feel asleep on the boat for two hours and got sun burnt. Sunday we helped set up for the party, greeted guests and family as they arrived and then spent a lot of time playing with Jack. ( Read more... )

Alla Salute!, a web short on YouTube with Allen Hyde (Godric form Ture Blood) is really funny and cute. Good to see him doing something, I hope he dose make it back for an episode or two this next season. Suggested by anothersuperboy

I don't think I posted about my annoying customer from Thrusday at the mall. He came over from Macy's complaining that they didn't have the watch he wanted. He was looking for a "grandpa's watch". All gold, including the face, a bit tacky. We had a few options and he picked one out to try on. He puts it on, takes a step back and lets his arm hang ( Read more... )

This looks pretty awesome, the "lead" is kinda cute too.

The ulcer is acting up again, most likely due to the stress. Life is pretty scary right now. I've never been unemployed (from a full time job) since I left college. I have the 2 part time ones right now, but that's not nearly enough to live on. I'm not sure what we will do, except hope that ( Read more... )

Yesterday finished up well. We went out to eat at Monty's Blue Plate Dinner, good food as always. Then we met up with some people at the Malt House. I have a slight headache from too much mead. Just had french toast for breakfast, checked email quick and now back to bed for a nap ( Read more... )
