Home is behind, the world ahead, |
Dang.
Mmmmm... pizza.
Heh... but I'm Lutheran. We ran out of incense, and never bothered to go to the store for more. :-)
It was probably snowing out.
And the pot luck was starting, so we all decided to have a little lunch, and Mrs. Ingvid brought that casserole that everybody likes so much.
nite folks
Nite nite... :-)
"The Carnivore"... Canadian bacon, pepperoni, beef, bacon, sausage, mozzarella, provolone, and parmesan. With "pepperoni rolls" (pepperoni and provolone cheese stuffed into pizza bread) on the side.
*drool*
Heh, vileness is much worse when someone else is watching it.
Mmmmm... Carnivore... I ~like~ it. :-)
We're gonna get up from the pilantirs and sit on the couch...
and watch a different pilantir.
Hmmm....
Especially someone like her. I really do love Dona to death... she's so sweet... but it's so darn frustrating to pick movies that she can watch.
She has a zero-tolerance for any sort of suspense. If she doesn't know how a movie ends, she will *not* watch it. She got up and walked out of "Oh Brother Where Art Thou" as soon as John Goodman wacked the guy with the stick. We cajoled her back into the room again... but when the scene with the Klan started... boom... gone... it took lots more cajoling to get her back again.
She has still not seen any of the LOTR movies. Can't cope with the violence.
It's frustrating.
Oh... they did a Bakshi?
We just got back from the circus. WooHoo! That was some show. It was a medium sized traveling circus based out of Hugo, OK called "Carson and Barnes 5 Ring Circus."
www.carsonbarnescircus.com
It was quite a bit of fun, but I am still in shock at how expensive it was. Adult tickets for the show were $16 while kiddos 2 and up were $6. To ride anything was 2 tickets (=$2), which included riding horses, playing in the bounce house, sliding the hugh slide, going to see the 1000lb snake, feeding the animals, etc.
My favorite part was the elephants. The cirque du soleil was cool too. I wasn't that impressed with the tigers and lions. elf-boy really liked the clowns (they were too goofy), and says that the bounce house was his favorite part. Bittygirl got bored about 2/3 way through, and wiggled as much as possible for the remainder of the show.
PE tried to win a balloon for elf-boy, but, alas, we didn't get a winning coupon in our bag of roasted peanuts (instead of a balloon, elf-boy got a stuffed elephant that trumpets when you squeeze its belly.).
No sympathy. I didn't like Beck at all - only watched three eps, though.
Bleach is good, and faithful to the manga thus far....
And the sad thing about those is, while the Goodman scene is a little shocking (I was more traumatized that he killed the frog) The Klan scene is really more comedy than scary, with the goofy choreography. If they are injecting dance manueuvers into it, they definately aren't trying to take the Klan seriously.
