I had a good busy weekend.
Friday I went to the OU men's basketball game, they looked good and won very conviningly.
Saturday was freezing! I started the morning bundled up at Blaine's playoff football game. They won! Yay! I was busy trying to recruit the kids and letting them know if they keep up the hard work they'll be getting college scholarships before they know it. Tonight is the final game, I'll let you know how it goes. After the football game I headed to the OU women's basketball game they also looked good and won, it was fun to see two number 1 draft picks in two days!! After that I headed off to hang out with a friend and watch the second season of Dexter, we finished that up and I'm so excited for the third season to come out on DVD (we both agree tv is way better on dvd).
Sunday, wasn't too busy slept in, watched a bit of football, ate Mexican for lunch, had a margarita, yummy! And went and saw Changling, I am not a fan of Angelina Jolie in fact I don't like her one bit (but it was the only movie at the theater we hadn't see that wasn't rated G) The movie was pretty good. A little sad, but kinda cool it was based on truth.

forgetful, bond.
Yesterday on the way home from work I was thinking about a funny blog I was going to post today to make up for last Friday's kinda-deep-right-before-the-weekend blog. I can't for the life of me remember what it was going to be about. Dang it. I hate that. Maybe I'll remember at a later date and you'll get it.
So, I'll just let you know I saw Quantum of Solace last night. It was so not as good as Casino Royale. boo! But, it was fun to watch it at 12:01!!! I think I'm still a fan of James Bond though. He's pretty cool....

movies.
Here is a review of the movies I've seen this week. In no real order....
House.
The best part of this movie was the review we read before going to see it "House is AWESOME!!!!!" It is now our understanding that the girl who wrote this review was talking about the tv show House MD. I mean if you've seen everything else in the theater and you enjoy scary movies you might as well check it out. But, don't expect to understand what is going on. It was confusing and not easy to follow at all. I did jump in fear a few times and there were some good quotable lines.
Zack and Miri Make a Porno.
This is was your typical comedy of this stature. There were some really funny parts, some really stupid parts and a couple of really gross parts. It follows the exact plot line you would expect it to. I'm a fan of Elizabeth Banks, I think she's really cute and would probably watch just about anything with her in it. It's not as raunchy as you might expect but please don't take your small children to see it...
Before this weekend I have prided myself on having never seen a James Bond movie or a Star Wars movie (used to have Batman on that list). Casino Royale was good enough that I checked into seeing Quantum of Solace tonight at the Midnight showing. For me the whole movie was worth the opening scene that was so unbelievably ridiculous I couldn't stop watching. Apparently, Bond movies are known for these and I'll be seeing the next one mostly for the opening. Also, it was a good mix of predictable and unexpected. I was sometimes a little bit bored and being able to predict what will happen next is a favorite of mine.

Role Modles was funny the same kind of funny as Zack and Miri, it follows your typical "teenage comedy" plot. So, if you're looking for a good laugh from a predictable movie with some dirty jokes thrown in this is your movie. I do have one complaint about this movie. If you watched the previews then you pretty much saw the whole movie. Elizabeth Banks is in this one too!
My personal opinion on current comedies in the theaters, if you're only going to see one I'd go see Sex Drive. But I did watch Zack and Miri and Role Models in the same day so maybe it was a little too much. Hopefully, there will be some new scary movies coming out soon.

I'm fairly certain this is a propaganda movie but my friend really wanted me to watch it. We eventually turned it off so I could sleep and I have no idea how it ends (I have to watch to find out....blah) So, I guess I'll be renting this one again.
(Please note at this point I think there are only two movies left playing in theaters I haven't seen, that's what Friday's are good for...new movies!!)

toe nails.
Still no luck with the pictures. I have no idea what is wrong with me. I swear I haven't been doing anything to kill brain cells...
My toe nails are falling off. So, far I've lost two. When the first one fell of I of course was grossed out and wondering what the heck was happening to me. Then I remembered that this happens every year, once a year. It happens the same every time. I get freaked out thinking I'm dying and then I remember it happened the year before, they'll grow back and all will be fine. Has anyone ever heard of anything so crazy? Who looses their toe nails annually? Or even ever for that matter. The thing that most annoys me about it is I have to stop wearing flip flops because my toes look kind of icky.
I guess I'll just be thankful my nails grow so fast.

UGH!!
I don't have my pictures from this past weekend uploaded, I didn't bring my camera cord. boo.
So, I was going to share some old one I hadn't posted before and guess what whenever I try they are super super small!!! ANNOYING!!!
This weekend I was telling my friend about 1-800-22-SHAMU, we used to watch these videos in elementary school that were put out by Sea World and at the end there was a question time were kids called in and then were played on the air. I never got to watch the show live but one day I went home to see if the number worked, and it did. I needed a question, but didn't want to sound stupid. So, I asked the nice operator where the oldest living manatee in captivity was located (of course I knew the answer) I was put on hold why the found out that it was indeed Snooty located in Bradenton, Florida. So, since we were in the car and had little to do we decided it would be fun to try and call 1-800-22-Shamu and see what would happen. Turns out they give you another number to call, that is not Sea World but an "Adult" line, that does not answer questions about sea life....
This weekend some guy in another car tried to hit on me? I could clearly read his "how you doin'" on his lips. I wasn't quite sure what to do. But, was flattered all the same.
I was scolded by a trucker for trying to pass him on the right, shaking finger and everything...I was annoyed he was not moving at a faster rate of speed.
Maybe tomorrow I'll remember how to post pictures....

Benjamin Franklin.
I'll be away for a few days. Looking for Jason Castro, hoping to get some pics for his fans!!
Benjamin Franklin is my all time favorite person from history, I thought I'd leave you with this quote...I find it alarmingly accurate and appropriate.
"All human situations have their inconveniences. We feel those of the present but neither see nor feel those of the future; and hence we often make troublesome changes without amendment, and frequently for the worse." -Benjamin Franklin

post.
I really don't have too much to say. But, I hate to leave my blog untouched for too long.
Last night I saw The Haunting of Molly Hartley. It ends pretty dumb. It could have been way better. But, oh well. I was scared once maybe even twice.
I walked around down town OKC and there were gun shots? Turns out they do that to scare the birds away? WHAT?!? I was not a fan.
I'm looking forward to this weekend! College football is my one true love!! So, here's hoping for a good week!!
