10 minutes solid of what sounded like a huge faucet opening over our entire building! I'm glad I'm not driving today, and also glad I didn't give myself too much grief over not watering the back yard planters last night!

Weekend was good. Went to see Max Payne on Friday night after getting stuck in a huge traffic jam. Saturday was grocery ( Read more... )

Friday night after dropping my coworker off home, I headed home myself and watched the debate. Hoo Boy...that was interesting ( Read more... )

Friday night after dropping my carpool buddy off at home I headed out to catch Death Race. Totally cheesy action movie, but it had some incredible high points. One of which was seeing every individual muscle in Jason Statham's back during a prison-cell pull-up scene. Wooooooo! Of course it's not Oscar material, but who wants that in a summer ( Read more... )

Only left the house twice this weekend. Late Saturday I had a craving for ice cream so bought some Weight Watchers mini-cups and brought them home. Sunday I headed out to WinCo to get some groceries. Got some yogurt, bread, zucchini, cucumbers, tomatoes, diet pepsi, yukon gold potatoes, and salad mix ( Read more... )

So, my folks are arriving sometime this afternoon to my house while I'm still at work. The plan is to go to a Thai restaurant downtown for dinner. We might or might not be meeting an aunt & uncle there for the dinner. Tomorrow the morning and early afternoon is open (I'm thinking about working on pulling some of the plethora of weeds in my side ( Read more... )

Friday night after carpooling home I managed to squeeze in a couple of movies. I saw Wanted again, and then caught a showing of Mamma Mia!. Both were really entertaining and how can you pass up James McAvoy shirtless and glistening? How, I ask you ( Read more... )

So, after posting my movie invitation on PDXCF and my LJ, I ended up having one taker. ghstintheshl and I caught the 4:30 PM showing of Hellboy II: The Golden Army and it was amazing. I just love the visuals and creatures of a Guillermo Del Toro movie. He really does create new worlds! Action was great and we got to see more of the deeper character traits of ( Read more... )

This morning I had a doctor appointment early to get my prescriptions renewed. I had planned to switch doctors and the receptionist practically danced a verbal jig when I asked to switch. Found out today that my ex-doctor has left the practice, so it's fortuitous that I had already decided to switch ( Read more... )

Tonight I went to see Wanted because I think James McAvoy is hot....and really like Morgan Freeman, even if he's playing a bad guy. Wasn't disappointed and really enjoyed the movie. Tomorrow I've got a doctor's appointment to renew my prescriptions on my new insurance. Other than that, have a totally open weekend without any plans. What a shocker ( Read more... )

Yesterday I got up pretty early, had a lovely breakfast and headed out to see The Hulk at the local theater. The movie was pretty good, definitely better than the first one, and harkened back to the TV series much more. Plus Lou Ferrigno had a cameo as a security guard. Win ( Read more... )
