Movie Review & Tea
Tonight Gene and I went to watch Howl’s Moving Castle at the Japanese Club’s movie night at UCO. It was a really awesome movie. It seems to be one of those movies that has a lot of huh? parts.. but at the same time, you’d want to watch it over and over again to figure them all out. I loved the animation and the story line itself. Very charming and very enchanting. We watched the Japanese version with English subtitles. The funny thing is that I think Gene saw this movie in the theatres with Layla and we actually own it on DVD, yet I had not seen it until tonight. Oh well, great movie and I’ll probably have to watch it sometime again! I would totally recommend it if you like animated films.
On another note, my darn knee is sore! Someone please chop it off :( I am tired of it aching. It comes and goes, but sometimes the aches kind of “pulse” like a heart beat and its annoying and sucks. Wah wah. Therapy today was 2 1/2 hours… Thought these suckers were supposed to get shorter?? Lame.
So uh.. I am gonna go sip on my gigantuan cup of Sugar Free Red Diamond (sweetened w/Splenda) tea :) I was craving a cherry/coke icey and Gene ran into 3 different gas stations for me and to no avail :( I said forget it, I was clearly not meant to have an icey tonight, let’s go home! So we did and he poured me this cup of tea and I’ve never been happier. And as lame as it sounds, I really just want to crawl into bed and sleep. I’ve felt pretty drained since I got home from Therapy this evening.
A VERY GIGANTIC P.S. My Threadless tees came in the mail today.. Well, my first order. I don’t think I mentioned it but I did end up getting this one as a second order because it wasn’t released until about 3 days after we placed our first order.. And hello? It’s freakin’ sweet! I can’t wait to wear my shirts! Hmm.. I think I wanna go watch Family Guy now…
Spam of The Month
Every now and then you get a spam e-mail that you have to keep. You don’t exactly know why but somehow, someway it speaks to you. On a level that no one understands but you. And this is mine, my friends:
Feed your dick and watch it grow!
Yes its that simple.
Just pop a couple a day and you’ll be well on your way
Back into the grind
I can’t believe I have to step back into the working world tomorrow. I feel like I am not ready at all and I’m scared that halfway through the day my energy is going to be depleted :( I’m taking my little ottoman that goes with my papasan chair so that I will have something to prop my leg up on all day and I’m also taking the ice machine with me. I have an appointment with the surgeon at 10:30 and then I have Physical Therapy at 4:30. I’m going to try my very best to get into work around 6 or 6:30 tomorrow. Gee.. Work.. Sounds so unfamiliar :o
The Birthday Dinner was awesome tonight. Ate some GREAT food and some yummy cake with ice cream. My computer is still in our bedroom as we didn’t have time to move them back to the computer room today. We’re hoping to get that done tomorrow evening. I’m hoping that I will be home from PT by at least 6:30 :/
Birthdays & a Movie Review
I feel so awul because yesterday was Maggie’s (Gene’s younger sister) birthday and I didn’t even write a post to say Happy Birthday to her! So here it is.. Happy Birthday to Maggie! I hope she got our package and I hope she liked the gift. We both love her and wish we lived closer so that we could spend more time with her.
Today is Layla (my little sister) and Malinda’s Birthdays!! So Happy Birthday to them. We are all gonna go eat tonight at Shogun (Japanese Steakhouse / Hibachi Grill). I’m really excited to go and see my sister and Malinda and hang out with everyone.. and of course to also eat at Shogun.. because, hello, YUM! :D
Not much else. Yesterday Gene and I went on a picnic at the park and then went to see the movie Babel. I can’t really say much about the movie. The movie itself seemed pretty good but whoever filmed the movie did a HORRIBLE job. I’m sure they made the camera’s shakey and zoomed in 90% of the time for a reason but it was too much for Gene and I. We were both motion sick afterwards. Also doesn’t help that we were in the dollar theatre and had to sit really close to the front. Either way, I’d say it was a good movie.. Take some ginger root and go see it!
Now I remember why…
I don’t buy candy very often. Because I over indulge. Then end up feeling sick as a dog! Gene bought me some sour gummy worms and circus peanuts (I know, weird combo) and I ate way too many last night when he brought them home :( Then I just ate way too many again. And now my tummy is yelling at me. Screaming, in fact. But man did it bring back memories eating some pure sugar circus peanuts. Haven’t had those since I was a kid. It took me YEARS to finally try them because they look SO nasty in the packaging. But if you like sugar, that is pretty much exactly what they are. A marshmallowy dense lump of sugar that is shaped like a peanut.
Well, I think that is all I am going to post about today. I am feeling ill and need to rest. Gene and I are going on a hot date (crutches included) to the dollar movies this evening. Seriously though, how long after Reconstructive Knee Sugery w/Allografts can you do the deed, if you know what I mean?? I know I sound like a 13 year old boy here but.. work with me people!
The Wonder That Is Threadless
I don’t know if any of you know of The Threadless but if you don’t, you should. It’s an on-line t-shirt emporium! It is a place that sells t-shirts that people create. They are usually quite hilarious and very witty. They are tagless tees with the name of the person who did the artwork written on the inside. I love it and they have men’s, girly tees, and baby and kids sizes. Last night we bit the bullet as they are having a $10 sale on most tees and made a pretty large order.
My order included:
Gene’s order included:
Their tees are normally a tad bit pricey but they have these $10 sales a few times per year and that is the time to stock up on the goodies! Also another great feature is that if they sell out of a design you like, you can request a re-print and if they get enough requests they will re-print that design and notify you when it is available.
