We went to the opening midnight showing of Twilight: Eclipse at Edwards in Mira Mesa (6-29-10). We went to the others, so why not the third in the series? We were on the News, sort of. You can see Erin, Anastasia & I hiding in the background while crazed teens scream, wave & jump up and down. The movie itself was just as faithful to the book as the ( Read more... )

#1 My Aunt had dentist appointments for her dentures. She had the option of adjusting the old ones or purchasing new ones. New dentures are apparently made out of gold because the price was ridiculous. She chose to get the adjustment. They had to do a new mold and work from that. She refused to go back to her next appt. She was mad at the dentist ( Read more... )

My last big blog was about all the drama-rama that has been surrounding me. I decided to attempt to count my blessings.
#1 I am alive to still write a blog, good or bad.
I am in good health, not perfect, but then again I'm not an Olympic athlete.
I am married to a man I love and who loves me back. I think we all know the bad possibilities of alternate ( Read more... )

Since Avatard came out Thursday for Earth Day I thought I would post my way overdue Oscar comments. 
I watch the Oscar pre and post shows for the fashions. I would like to thank every woman who took a chance and wore something odd. Thank you! The whole show needed more excitement and oddity. I miss the Cher / Bjork train wrecks. I am sure the ( Read more... )

Aired on the Colbert Report 3-4-10 at 11:30pm.  The gentleman who wrote the book told of when he went into the Gap to buy a pair of jeans. The author appeared to be in his early 50s. He used to take 10 minutes to get his jeans. This time it took forever because there were too many options: Skinny, boot cut, relaxed fit, acid wash, stone wash, ( Read more... )

I was just sent a link from 2009, but its heading was perfect! "The 90-Minute Movie: Because 80 Minutes Is Too Short, and 100 Is Too Long". I am not against long viewings. I will watch a 4 hour BBC mini-series and barely twitch. I am just suggesting Filmmakers not waste my time and let the Editor do her/his job. Let someone who does not love you ( Read more... )

Like many people I was looking forward to 2009 ending and 2010 starting. So far as of March it has mostly been downhill. There have been bright spots like Princess J going Girl Scout commando and selling cookies like crazy. ConDor and Ramona & Jesse's wedding was fun. Stuff like that. However mostly it is all about the suck-a-tude.
#1 Why has it ( Read more... )

No spoilers! I received a free copy of The Darkness at Comic-Con 2009. Turns out it is Book #10. I dislike starting a series anywhere but the beginning and #10 was way too far for me. I picked up Book #1: Minion. I liked it a lot. It reminded me of Buffy, if she were black and her multi-racial friend base were also people with powers. The plot is ( Read more... )

I was clicking around Netflix looking for another Bollywood movie.  I was fortunate enough to receive Jodhaa Akbar for Christmas. I ended up choosing Dhoom 2. Hritik Roshan and Aishwarya Rai are in both movies. Abhiskek Bachchan plays a cop after a master thief in this crazy & visually appealing movie. (Abhiskek is actually Aishwarya Rai's husband ( Read more... )

I've noticed a trend. Whenever I hear "straight" people fuss about gay people coming out of the closet they often say something stupid. Yes I know they say lots of silly things, but I am referring to one theme in particular: "If all gay people come out of the closet they will start hitting on me". I have several problems with this way of thinking ( Read more... )
