Last night Jon and Jesse decided that we needed to watch a nice Japanese romance called Auditions. The movie started out well, with a businessman auditioning a series of woman for a 'movie part,' when in actuality he was looking for a new wife. To make a long story short, he found the woman of his dreams and began to court her. Okay, thus far, the ( Read more... )

Most of my friends know that I'm not exactly on top of my e-mail. I'm lucky if I check my e-mail twice a week. I have very limited access from work, and I normally prefer to spend my breaks and lunches doing other things....say taking walks or talking with my co-workers. When I get home I either run out the door again, headed for some table top ( Read more... )

I had the day off yesterday, which I spent having manicures and shopping with Julia and Anthony, shopping with Jon, and watching movies with Jon, Jesse, and Wolf ( Read more... )

Last Thursday I flew to Washington, D.C. for my sister's college graduation. On Friday morning, my father and I went to Air and Space Museum, which totally rocked. That afternoon we went to my sister's graduation. It was long and totally uninspiring. With the school in the middle of D.C., you'd think they'd have some famous speakers. Not this year ( Read more... )

I should preface this piece with the statement that I'm not a religious follower of the Cult of Buffy. I enjoy the show, watching it when I have nothing else to do or I'm with company who are loyal followers. Anyway, last weekend I saw the episode Hush for the first time. I must admit, it was a tad freaky. The 'Gentlemen' are seriously spooky and ( Read more... )

I feel like I'm on a roller-coaster! Work has been extremely busy, requiring me to stay a few hours overtime each day. I don't particularly mind this, especially since I'm making time and half, but it does tend to make me grouchy ( Read more... )

Saturday. I spent the morning watching movies and playing Jedi Outcast. That afternoon Jon dragged me to Everett to locate this supposedly cool hobby store. Unfortunately, despite our many efforts we never found it. Jon was rightly upset since we had to drive to freaking nowhere in the first place, but I, on the other hand, was rather amused by the ( Read more... )

Friday afternoon I left work early and headed to Vancouver, WA for my mother's birthday. My parents and I had an awesome dinner at Bacchus, a trendy restaurant with live music and 'interesting' cuisine. I had buffalo. As a side note, I had a fun time reminding my parents (especially my father) of some of those childhood 'wincing' moments that all ( Read more... )

I'm a tad stressed. My work laid off three people last week to consolidate positions. I should be thankful as I still have a job, however, it kinda pisses me off that my position, which I enjoyed, has drastically changed for the worse. I no longer handle my own claims, not even the minor ones. Now I audit files, which is boring as hell. Oh well, as ( Read more... )

As many of you may know, I went to Vancouver, WA for the weekend. However, before I left on Friday night, Geoff took me to see Blade II. Good film. It rates a 4/5 on M'Cori's movie scale. Oh, as a side note, the Time Machine was a 2/5. Not so good ( Read more... )
