Wheeeeeeeee!
I think I've had just enough of a super boring day to be all giddy like and dorky at this hour of the day. I'm watching Love Actually right now (it's on in the other room)...I'm such a sucker for romantic comedies, especially with lots of hot British accents! Wheeeeeee! :) I think I missed the part where Colin goes to Wisconsin, though, so I'll have to back up the movie till I find it. Despite the two glaring errors (his plane lands at the Milwaukee Airport - no such thing! it's either Mitchell Internation or Timmons Field, and he goes to a bar and orders a BUDWEISER??? Hello! Milwaukee is home to Miller and Pabst and Schlitz, NOT Budweiser). Anyway, I'm over my Chess obsession, at least for today. I'm on some sort of loser-ish musicals kick, so we'll see what the next few days brings. It's not like I have anything better to do anyway!
Anyway, I'm in the process of uploading my recital pics onto my yahoo photos! There's only four pictures, but hey, no complaints here. Check 'em out! http://photos.yahoo.com/mslauren18
Ooh, Troy comes out tomorrow on DVD. I'm going to have to go rent it or something, but maybe I'll have to have Adam over so we can make scathing commentary together. For example, the Greeks have just left a big, wooden horse outside of Troy. The following conversation ensues:
King (Peter O'Toole): We should bring it inside the walls of Troy.
Me: Bad idea! Set it on fire!
Adam: Yeah, no kidding! Don't bring inside, burn it down!
Prince (Orlando Bloom): No Father, I think we should set it on fire.
Me & Adam: Duh! Didn't we just say that??
Girls sitting next to us at theater: *glares*
Ahh, I love going to movies with Adam...I should probably give him a call. I'm sure there's some movie out there that we can a-agree on and b-have a blast making fun of! Woohoo!! We should really be hired by the people of Mystery Science Theater! We're just as great at making snide commentary.
So my plans for the rest of the week include: Nothing! Yay!
The dentist was not so painful, though I'm sure I ruined any teeth-cleaning by driving from the dentist office right to Einstein's and getting a huge bagel sandwich, chips & a pickle. And eating chocolate. And drinking Coke. Oh well.
I decided today on my way to the dentist's that I hate driving in the city. Only for now, because there was lots of sleet or freezing rain or something, and while I had no problems with my car (and I even got it started! ha!!), nobody else seemed to know how to drive (yeah, it's probably not the best idea to drive fast down oakland, thank you). All in all, I seemed to fare better than my parents, because they had stories of people sliding everywhere and whatnot. I was driving behind a cop at one point, and all I could think of was last year when we were driving down Maryland during a snow storm, and the cop didn't know how to keep his car from fishtailing! And I'm not talking about like, a little bit, but for an entire friggin six blocks or something! I was dying laughing. Makes me feel safe if I ever get into an accident during a snow storm, nothing like being able to count on the cops to save the day!! We can only hope that said cop had moved to Milwaukee recently from like, the Bahamas or something...:)
Anyway, back to Love Actually. I think tomorrow I'm going to watch Amelie or Garden State. Haven't decided yet.
Oh, I might be going up to DePere sometime this week to finish cleaning out my grandparents' house *sniff, sniff* since it's getting sold soon *sniff, sniff*....guess that means it's really going to happen. :`(
On to happier things...movies! Yay! And calling Adam! Yay! Hey! Maybe Adam will want to go bowling! That would be fuuuuuuuun! Of course, I'll have to get out the ice for post-bowling because I'm SUCH a great bowler...:) Okay...I'm out.
