School of Rock

Tonight my dad and I were working out in the basement and watching Jack Black in School of Rock. The treadmill gets a bit loud and starts to drown out the sound of the tv. Father was laughing pretty hard at certain parts in the movie, but then I started to notice that he wasnt laughing at some other pretty funny parts, and I realized, he couldn't hear it... not because of the treadmill, but because sometimes he just cant hear.

I didnt say anything, but finally he said, "can you turn it up??"

I knew it.

total falls today because of snow:

two

1- middle of market street after work... in front of traffic... feet out from under me, lying in the median.... humiliating

2- after taking the dog out, slid down to one knee... wouldnt have hurt so bad if it were not for #1


is this day over yet?!?!

actually, is snow season over yet?!?!

Book Reviews and Happy New Year

Finished reading "Unhallowed Ground" .... the first half was rather slow, but the second half produced a good story. I understand that an author needs to set up the story, but did she need to do it for almost 200 pages before it got good?

Now am reading "Bridget Jones's Diary". Verdict so far? Hilarious. I of course have seen the movie more times than I can count, and I have had the book for a long time, I've just never gotten around to reading it. Bridget in the book is even more funny than in the movie (didnt think that was possible!). There is so much more to her even, her paranoia of being a "thirty-something-singleton", her self-consious image of herself, and how she interprets men. She is what I will be like in my thirties if I am: still single, living in London, and a bit more crude and promiscuous. That last one isnt likely, so maybe just the first two.


Signing of on my last post of 2009. Happy New Year ya'll, may it be merry and bright.

Currents:

watching: The Blind Side (so amazing... I cant even explain! haha)

listening: Sugarland's Christmas Album

reading: Bridget Jones' Diary (love it!)

drinking: Starbucks Peppermint Mocha

wearing: my oh so lovely pj's!

:::Sucky Sequels:::

Today at work my friend Zack and I were trying to name our Top-Five-Most-Hated-Sequels-Of-All-Time.

********************************************

We started off:

SPEED 2 ... bad, just really bad.

Then we decided that ALL the DISNEY SEQUELS are bad... not a good one out there!!! (why do they keep making them when they go straight to video?!?!) we couldn't figure that one out!

The third would be OCEANS 12... honestly, I fell asleep during it in the theater. Yes, it was that bad!

The other one we agreed on was THE FAST AND FURIOUS sequels... dumb. Thats the only word I can think of!

And the fifth: honestly? There is no fifth! I LOVE sequels... even if they suck, I have to watch them, just to see for myself.


***********************************************

Some of my favorite sequels:

Rush Hour
Miss Congeniality
Legally Blonde
Pirates of the Caribbean
Twilight/New Moon
Meet the Parents/Fockers
Bridget Jones
National Treasure
Elizabeth
Home Alone
The Santa Clause
Transformers
Alvin and the Chipmunks


Ohhhh this list could go on and on!

********************************************

Ok, peace out, I've got to go pop in a movie! Haha

ps- Merry New Year! :)
