Movie Spoiler

Click at your own risk....but it's really fun to guess what movies they are. I knew all but 3 (2 but I didn't remember the one right away). And if you're a movie watcher at all, you have seen most of them already.

Hint: One is a book and one is a tv show

(Oh and I like the design too! It's fun!)

Group Therapy

You are not annoying. You are a special tile. You are valuable.


(I can't remember where I found this....it's been on my desktop for 2 months...sorry!)

Simple.

These pics are to showcase the house and I love that the photographer added the bunnies for interest! It catches your eye but does not take away from the simplicity of the space.

Mooooooovies!

We went about 8 months without going to see a single movie in a theater, and now I've gone to about six in the last month (or so). Craziness.

Sex in the City - Great time out with the girls, cute movie!

Iron Man - Awesomeness.

Hancock - Crap. (Sorry Shels...it was stupie..hee hee))

Hellboy II - Colby, swiss, cheddar...whatever you want to call it...it was cheeesy!

The Dark Crystal - Old Jim Henson/Frank Oz movie, saw a midnight showing at the Oaks theater

and fiannnnnnlllly The Dark Knight....totes awesomeness. I do agree with Bryan's review on the voice though, it does get to you.

Sorry, I'm not much of a movie reviewer...

They're watching you...

Grawlix...

What does it mean?

(Hint: It was coined by Mort Walker, the cartoonist of Beetle Baily, in 1964, and your mum would wash out your mouth with soap if she hear you say it)

And it Begins...

Okay I'm finally starting to think about wedding stuff so be prepared to have a few posts about the things I find. Don't worry, it won't take over the blog, I promise, I just wanted to warn you.

Vay-cay!

I took a vacation day Wednesday and Mike, Josh, Missy and I went to Cedar Point. The boys have off every Wednesday so it was a perfect day to hit up the park. All four of us love roller coaster and we had amazing weather so the day was fabulous! (Not a very flattering pic of me...but ehh...deal with it)

NEW ROLLER COASTER REVIEW: Cedar Point's "Maverick"

Remember that crazy suspense building feeling when going up the  first hill of the roller coaster with it's slow clink...clink...clink...? Yeah...they "fixed" that....you just zip right on up reallll smooth-like. It's kind of cool, but ruins some of the fun. There is a 95 degree drop (beyond vertical) that is crazy and it's got some awesome twists, turns and upside-down-ness. The waiting line is probably the worst part. You are in a semi-enclosed space with many strangers and zero fans. Not pleasant. Take ice water. Overall it was pretty awesome and worth the wait. (But the Raptor is still my favorite!)

I was amazed to realize that there are a lot of people out there that have never been to Cedar Point...I just thought it was something that everyone (within driving distance of Ohio) did. I've been there there probably about 7 times and still love it!

Mark Hamill, what are you doing in my cd player?

Mike and I listen to a lot of audio books on our many, many, many drives from Pittsburgh to Erie and back. (They have a large collection of them at the library and I can walk there on my lunch so they are easily accessible.) We just finished The Spiderwick Chronicles (they just made a movie out of it) which was just okay. But it was read by none other than Luke Skywalker! I kept expecting him to say "Aunt Beru?...Uncle Owen?.... " any minute. Hee hee...it made it quite enjoyable!

A weekend in Pittsburgh...

Yes, it's a miracle, we stayed in Pittsburgh this weekend. Friday night we went to Happy Hour over at Palomino (Downtown Pittsburgh, goooood happy hour...except on beers) and to the gallery crawl. Randie had 2 pieces in a show and we checked out a few other places and caught the fireworks after the Pirates game.

Saturday afternoon we made butter...yes...made it...we put raw milk in a jar and shook it...and no joke it became butter! (it took a lot of shaking)

We went to the gallery opening at Moxie Dada

And had an absolutly amazing dinner at Monterey Pub, I had a smoked salmon boxty...which had these potato pancakes..and was totes amazing. Highly recommended!

Overall a great weekend!

UPDATE: Oh I forgot to mention we went to the South Side Works Exposed on Sunday. I guess it was their first one, they had a few bands play and a number of artists, it was just okay, nothing amazing.

I Second that!

I totes agree with BB Blog....I love gigantic art...it (usually) makes me smile!
