New Stuff to Say.

I was watching Revenge of the Sith special features today and came across the scene where Anakin comes to see Palpatine at the theater and the Chancellor says, "Anakin, I have good news." Every time I hear that I want to turn it into a Geico commercial. A merchandising option old George let slip through his fingers...

Saw another Western yesterday: Vengeance Valley. This was more of the traditional Western that we are all at least somewhat familiar with so, perhaps at least partially, the pacing was much improved as was the story but the dialogue, alas, wasn't as funny.

Today, I finished reading my Christmas book: Consent to Kill by Vince Flynn. I like espionage fiction, particularly this author. It was pretty well written. There was a scene that, if this was a TV show, you'd expect it to happen but somehow, because it was a book, it really threw me. I know that probably doesn't make any sense but there it is. This is the six book in a series of sorts. You could pick any one of them off the shelf and read it and not be confused at all but it adds something if you read them all. Three things happened, one being what I mentioned above, in this book that make me wonder if this is the last one or just an opening to take it into a completely different direction. Time will tell.

Oh, and Lady Vader can breathe a sigh of relief. Her town decided I will not be working in the library after all. (I'm just yanking your chain.)

Random Comments Into My Life

We did yardwork yesterday. I picked up a lot of sticks. Home Depot sucks on a Friday morning. My father and I went to get a new gascan for the mower and there was only one employee around to help us...and she didn't know anything about how these new fangled gas cans work... So due to a bank error when I reset my bank account so I could accurately keep track again, I had like a hundred dollars less in my account than I thought so my last bill payment put me in the hole. This would've been all right and easily fixed if I had been paid for the last week of my mailroom job but, oddly, I still have not been even though it's been weeks. I don't know if I can accurately convey how infuriated this makes me. If it doesn't happen soon, heads will roll! Also yesterday I re-watched the Enterprise episode "Regeneration"; this time with audio commentary from the writers. They made some valid points I hadn't considered on the issue of if this episode screws with...

Remind Me

Remind me to complain how boring and unexciting my life more often because as soon as I did, it got really exciting really fast. Last night, we had four visitors arrive from Korea. They like ziti and garlic bread. Go figure. They will be staying until Sunday night. I told my mother (AKA Hyacinth Bucket) she was making way too much salad but did she listen? No. Now we have this huge-ass bowl of salad in the fridge...What's really irritating is first the fork we use to serve catfood went missing now Susie's dish is missing as well... Tomorrow, I have a physical to prepare for my surgery then I go to my orthopedist's to fill out consent forms. Woo Hoo! I hope I can find time for a haircut as well because... Friday, I have a job interview at a library in Massachusetts! It's a reference job but I also will be conducting a book group. I've never done that but it sounds really fun. Sure, I'll be stuck reading many book that sucks but isn't that what book group i...

Your soul is bound to the Second Totem, Luna: The Wolf . Luna appears as a pair of coral colored wolves. She embodies empathy, nurturing, insight, and warmth . She is associated with the color coral, the season of spring, and the element of wind. Her downfall is pathos. You are most compatible with Doves and Ravens. Which Animal Spirit Totem Are You? brought to you by Quizilla I think I only clicked one of those qualities; maybe more. Odd but at least I'm not a Cockroach...
