You guys and your parania that tobacco is bad for you. I mean do you actually believe EVERYthing the health dept. tells you? I mean c'mon! wake up! *weeze* My super conservative Aunt says "Why not ban ice cream then? It makes you fat and is addictive!" While this may be true, it won't kill your family if you eat it in front of them. |

Well, in addition to the dinner on Friday night, I also saw my friends' jazz combo group perform at a coffee shop. On Saturday, I went to a luncheon with my grandmother in honor of my younger brother, who made onto Mortar Board. But, my brother wasn't there because he had a test! And my stomach felt upset for some reason, and I couldn't eat very much. This yucky bug started on Friday night, and continued into Saturday. It also included a feeling of light-headedness, and it really sucked, but it's gone now.
Then, I rented 5 movies with the $20 my grandma gave me. Pumpkinhead, Day of the Dead, Exorcist III, The Changeling, and Robin Hood: Men In Tights. As you can see, I like horror movies, and comedy. I watched Men In Tights last night. Yes, MaryT, you were right, the sheriff is hot, if a little fey. Pumpkinhead was an odd, interesting little horror movie, with an excellent monster.
And today, I do not have any plans. I am at my boyfriend's parents house (where he's living to save money before we move). I will probably watch The Changeling later, and maybe Robin Hood again. So it has been a nice weekend.

Really you don't inhale cigars, you keep the smoke in your mouth. That's where tar builds up. Also, did you know that they put tiny peices of sharp fiber in chewing tobacco so that it cuts your skin so the nicotine gets into your bloodstream so that you get addicted faster? I only smoke cigars during big sporting events (i.e. the Alabama/Tennessee football game, the Stanley Cup, any college championship game). The rest of the time I just stick with my Marlboro's. Red Cowboy Killers. Yes,yes, I know it's bad for me and I'm gonna die when I'm 40, but, I don't smoke around non-smokers, I respect their rights. Servo |

I know. I have pretty bad asthma so whenever I smell smoke it preps me for an asthmatic episode. I hate when people don't think that a substance can be harmful in the long run because they have a family member who beat the odds by living to a certain age after smoking. That is NO reason to vindicate your smoking! |

The wife and I caught a Preds game. They blew it, had one oportunity after another and just threw it all away. Also went out for BBQ at Jacks in downtown Nashville, it gave me heartburn. Oh and we went to the library (hey, I like the library!) Despite the loss and the heartburn, it was a fun night out. :) "The wife"? Are you going to go have "the sex"? Sorry. Couldn't resist the mst riff. The wife and I like to go to bookstores on our dates. And we'd go to a hockey game any day. Except Avs tickets are as hard to find as quality network programming. And I did everything I had hoped to do this weekend. I even got that nap that I was looking forward to. |

I just remembered something funny I noticed in Robin Hood--Men In Tights. The blonde kid from Quest of the Delta Knights is in it for about two minutes. He is the annoying screaming youth who runs up to Robin, about 20 minutes in, with the Sheriff chasing after him. He's really dumb-looking and annoying. But you knew that already.
Also, the annoying moron who played Leonardo is in the movie Speed. He's a passenger on the bus. I saw it on TV a couple weeks ago, and guess what? He plays an annoying moron in that movie, too! With the same crappy page-boy haircut.

Yeah, I noticed he didn't have a great many lines. He had a couple like, "He's under the bus!" "This is crazy!" and "Get me off this bus, I'm a big whiny baby!" Well, he may not have said he was a baby, but that was definitely the message that came through. He was mostly there to look painfully frightenend, in an annoying way.

I'm gonna have to see all those movies again right when I get home. Robin Hood's already on my list of "things I really wanna see", and "the Reanimater", that's not a good movie, but it's funny.
Touch down in the Land of the Delta Knights, that was the last MST3k i saw before I left the country, but I only was able to watch 1/2 of it.

This weekend I shall ride north to the lands of my fathers and witness the shrieking naked moon.
Then probably some jerky.
