Another sunny day

[cleolinda]

Did not go swimming again, as I felt a little sun-sensitive from spending so much time outside yesterday. Have a few mosquito bites on my arm that I keep scratching in my sleep, leading to prolonged swelling and itchitude despite cortisone cream. Also discovered that the ice cream in the freezer downstairs was almost completely melted but still

Did you check the freezer temperature gauge (where you set how cold it should be)? My friend Mike had a refrigerator that he assured me was broken, and I "fixed" it just by turning the knob to the right setting.

I don't know why it would have changed, but Mom cranked it up as high as it would go just to see what would happen. We're waiting to see if it gets any colder or not.

Well, like in Mike's case, if you own an air conditioner or refrigerator for long enough, there's a chance that refrigerant can leak over time, and whatever setting it was on would not keep it as cool. Also, I guess someone could have just bumped the knob/switch with their hand or something.

I'm horribly tempted to take one for the team and see The Love Guru at this point, just because I miss movie popcorn THAT MUCH.

(Also, I still have The Hottie And The Nottie and I Know Who Killed Me on my hard drive for mocking purposes. Clearly I can tolerate anything.)

[apocalypsos]

Oh, yes. I paid money to see Battlefield Earth in the theaters, and I could tell just walking in that the handful of fanboys who'd gotten there first were there for the same reason.

And then we all got to feel really, REALLY guilty, because some guy brought this little five-year-old boy, and he was so freaking excited about all the spaceships and aliens, and none of us had the heart to ruin some little kid's fun movie-going experience.

But, yeah, somebody's got to suffer for the masses. And I do have that job interview down by the theater tomorrow morning.

I wonder what's worse: "Love Guru" or "Zohan".

I don't intend to find out.

[apocalypsos]

From what I've heard, "Zohan" is pretty funny, actually. Not exactly the smartest movie ever made and not the funniest movie either, but not horrible.

"Love Guru," on the other hand ... I've yet to hear a single complimentary thing about it.

[cleolinda]

I have actually laughed at two separate points in Zohan commercials, which is more than I can say for anything related to The Love Guru.

I got a Mummy preview when I went to see The Hulk - but we got there late because my boyfriend was dithering (he HATES previews and does not understand why I obsessively must be there to SEE ALL OF THEM - actually, precious few people that I know actually enjoy previews - let alone look forward to them) so I didn't see all of it, but what I did see was pretty cool looking.

& the love guru? It's like ... everything I hate in a movie, with the added bonus of Jessica Alba pretending that she is funny. She is not.

I love movie previews and one of the reasons I hate going with other people is because no one ever wants to get there early enough to sit through all the previews.

This. *points*

Is it odd that I love Ben Barnes more because his first thought was to link Springfield to the Simpsons?

[crumpeteer]

And apparently he can cook, so he's a whole package deal for me.

[cleolinda]

He cooks, too?!
