The spaghetti dinner at the pool was fun. The kids were in bed by 9pm. The Male and I watched Brokeback Mountain. It was almost unbearably sad. I can't even talk about it right now. But that's not the best part of the evening.

Orlando Bloom was on The Tonight Show and I remembered to tape it!! Or I should actually say that The Male ( Read more... )

I absolutely love this icon. I don't usually find Dominic Monaghan to be "hawt", but I find he has beautiful hands - long, slender fingers - and they make me happy. LOL. Silly me.

I have had a shithole of a week at work. Let me just start with that. Wednesday, while I was on vacation with my kids at the pool, everything kind of imploded at work. There was a lot of pissing and posturing between our client and the project management and the outcome was a lot of dumping on the EA team. Then, in a purely selfish bout of ( Read more... )

When you have to start your work week off by apologizing to your boss, you know it's going to be a rough day. *sigh*

Well, it's been a helluva day already and it's only 12:40pm. The Male and Junior got off to Richmond on time to make it to my nephew's birthday party. It's approximately a 2 hour drive. I even managed to get the birthday present wrapped and some bottles of water in the van for them to drink on the way down. I got Molly to ballet by 10am (on ( Read more... )

So I may have mentioned that I watched Kingdom of Heaven last night with the Male. There really is very little I could say about the movie that crevette doesn't already say very eloquently hereBut then who has ever known me to pass up an opportunity to share my opinion? *g* There were a couple of things about the film that I'd like to call out ( Read more... )
