Y'know, I've been meaning to write an entry for at least a week or more. And it's come to the point where it's like, I better hurry up and get to it! The list of things I wanna write about just keeps on growing! So here we...go!
First off, I can't believe I almost forgot this but...today's a Monkeeversary!! On September 12th, 1966, the first Monkees episode aired!! Waaahooo!! And how convenient that it comes so close to...THE DAVY CONCERT THAT'S COMING UP!! :D :D :D *throws confetti*
Well, about a couple of weeks ago, we went to that faaaaabulous local steakhouse that I love so much! It was delicious! After that, we drove around town a bit, and Daddy showed us where his gramma (our great-gramma), and Mama used to live! That was cool to see. Then, we went bowling, and Sis and I played the most games I think we ever have! On the 2nd game, my score was alarmingly good (for me!), so I was pretty happy about that.
We played plenty of music too, so we made up for that last time when that idiot woman played a toilet full of songs just so she could make a fool of her highly DRUNK self. I hadn't heard Black Betty in ages, so I had play that...hehe. Toxic, We Will Rock You, Disturbia, Don't Stop 'Til Ya Get Enough, and Smooth Criminal were some other songs on our little bowling playlist. :)
Went to see Mirrors that night, and it was pretty okay. Very creepy though, especially...
MAJOR spoiler ahead!
...Amy Smart's death...omg!! Though Daddy lightened the mood in a unique way when he quoted a line (or song lyric, rather) from another Amy Smart movie, "Just Friends"...hehe. If you've seen JF, I think you know exactly what I'm talking about...haha.
End
Sis and I went to see Dark Knight...AGAIN! We went on Labor Day, and it was so fun! There were more ppl there this time, and these little boys in front of us were very lively, hehe. After that, we rode around town a bit, then went to Wal-green's and Wal-mart. On the way back to the house, the main road we use to get there was blocked. So we took a detour that turned out to be alot more complicated than we originally thought it would be, haha. When we came back, A Knight's Tale was on! Especially after some stress caused from said detour (lol), watching some bits of that was just what I needed! :)
After many, many attempts by me, Daddy, and Sis, Daddy was finally able to get that Curious George doll for me out of the crane machine at Wal-mart! That took place about 2 weeks ago as well, I think. I was so happy, lol. For months they didn't even have another one in there, and Daddy got the FIRST one they put in after a hiatus!
Sat. before this past one (the 30th), Sis and I attempted to see Dark Knight again, but didn't quite make it. But we still had a fun night. We went with Daddy and his friend to that yummy local seafood place, and Sis had some funny jokes ready by the time his friend pulled up in the yard good, hehe. She has fun giving him a hard time, just like Daddy does, but it's all in good fun, haha. After that, Sis and I stopped by Target, then Texas Steakhouse for dessert. We had these DELICIOUS mouth-watering melted hershey bar brownie sundaes. OMG...all I can say is just...wow! 'Twas so good that I need to stop talking about it, esp. while hungry, lol! Ambled around Wal-mart a bit after that, hehe.
That weekend, we went to see the Rocker. Much better than we thought it'd be. SUPER funny, and that Teddy Geiger is such a cutie. ;) His eyes are just...whoa! :D Read a nice story about him a few years back, so apparently he's a sweetie too, so that's even better! Oh yeah...and a musician!! Whoo!
Speaking of "rockers", I gotta gush about Johnny rocking out with his old band on Aug. 29-30th! This is now the SECOND time he's done this, and this time, there were TWO days' worth of concerts! So happy to see him having so much fun with his buddies again, doing something else he loves (and is incredibly talented at, as well)!
Heeeeeere's Johnny pics!
Oh Johnny, you're so fine, you're so fine you blow my mind, hey Johnny! *4 claps* Hey Johnny! *4 claps*
Sexy...sweaty...YUM!!
Gaaaah...THE stare!! *thud*
Mmmmmm...this pic is like a painting almost.
The blue light + him = AAAAAAAH!! Mmmmmm, and look at those cheekbones!! Guh! :D
One after the show...GORGEOUS! He's killing me with that shirt!! ♥♥
And here's some vids!
A nice little medley clip of the first night's performance! One of my fave clips, cuz it really showcases his AMAZING skills! I don't have any pics of the 2nd night, b/c all the ones I've seen are personal ones and aren't allowed to be posted in other places. But, I am able to bring you vids from the 2nd concert!
From the 2nd night...another example that Johnny ROCKS...literally, hehe! Johnny rocking...again! I tell ya, I love watching Johnny playing at least as much as I love watching his acting!!
This is just a little sample of all the gems youtube has to offer of Johnny's playing, so I'll just leave it at these since this entry is chock full of vids, haha.
In other JD news, yay for him winning the National Movie Award!
His lovely acceptance speech! All I gotta say is in response to the part at 1:00 is, "Name the time and place, darlin'!" :D
Also, congrats to Coach K. and team USA for the gold medal in b-ball! I know that news is old as dirt, but anyhoo...haha. Makes me even prouder to be a fan of another famed team led by Coach K...THE DUUUUKKKKKIIEEEESSS!!! :D
Last week, Sis and I finally watched "Candy"! We'd been meaning to for awhile! As anyone who's seen it knows, Heath was amazing, of course!! Very neat to see him and "Barby" pair up, hehe.
Some fave bits are:
You know me and spoiler fears
-"We're the coolest ppl in Mcdonald's."
-Dan watching the TV under the blanket...haha!
-The car wash...lol.
-Dan's first word in reaction to Candy's pregnancy...hehe.
Spoilers stop here
This past Sat., we got to have some Bojangles' biscuits! Mmmm-mmmm good! Then, Sis and I spent lots of time outside scootin'! So fun!
Went to see Traitor this past weekend at the movies. Pretty good, but was a teensy bit slow at times.
We went out for Mexican food Wed. night, and it was so GOOOOD!! There were these wild, obviously drunk dudes in there acting like idiots, but thank God they didn't stay the whole time we were eating. The staff had some crazy moments themselves, but that was more funny than anything else. There was a soccer game on and they were really getting into it, hehe.
After dinner, we went by Wendy's and got the 3rd twisted frosty we've gotten in the last week! Those things are GOOOOOD! We (Sis and I) get the cookie dough ones, and I tell ya, that's the best ice cream product I've ever had w/cookie dough in it! Seriously. Went to Wal-mart after that and picked up some stuff. Sis and I looked through some Halloween costumes since, thanks to Daddy, we're pretty certain we've got a party to go to this year!
On a wrestling note, YAHOOOO for Chris J. being the WHC! AND WHOOOOO for Matt being the ECW champ!
Since we're on the subject of wrestling, I HAD to share these FUNNY videos I found!!
BATMIZ!!! I totally freaked out when Sis revealed this vid to me where Miz is "Batmiz" (hehe) and John M. is...THE JOKER!! I laughed my butt off!! SOOO HILARIOUS, even if you're not a wrestling fan. Fans and non-fans alike can still enjoy this, though if you don't watch wrestling, you may not get all the wrestling references, and stuff like that. But def. worth watching if you love Dark Knight (and good humor, hehe)!
Some fave moments are...
-the way Miz says, "INBREDS!"...LOL!
-"I'm Commissioner Gordon" guy...haha, so random.
-"Bang!"..."Pop!"..."Pow!"...nice nod to the 60's Batman, lol.
-"Alfred, did you put this in the dryer again?"
-"Ready, set, go!" *cue firecrackers*...hehehe.
-the random "feats" of both Batmiz and Joker, such as Batmiz jumping over the chair, and the like...haha.
On a side note, John plays Joker very well (hehe), and now this makes 2 insanely beautiful men who have donned the Joker make-up...hehe. ;)
In this next vid, the Miiiizz interviews Maggie G. and Christopher N.! Soooo funny, esp. Maggie's reaction to Miz's oddness, lol.
The Miz interviews The Dark Knight cast, part 1! And here, the Miiiizz interviews BATMAN himself, Christian B., plus Gary Oldman and Aaron Eckhart (who is absolutely perfect at playing along with Miz's antics, lol). The "pure steel" comment is too funny, haha. Looved Christian's respone to Miz's intro too, hehe.
The Miz interviews TDK cast, part 2! I think Maggie and Aaron's interviews are my faves, haha. They just seem to be at ease and genuinely having fun, lol.
And there you have it! I'm done yapping for now, haha. Buh-bye! :)
