Christmas, Past

Thursday, January 22nd, 2009

So I’m going to back up and share some Christmas pics. I spent time in DeLand with old friends - as in they are from grade school and we are all actually old now :) I then spend a few days in good ole’ Dothan, ALABAMA!

My best girl, Brandi, and me in Downtown Dee-Land!

And because I included Lawton, I have to post one of Addy (who’s my third cousin, I think)

Winter Weekend

A shot from the long weekend, after a snowstorm or two. Toby loves the snow, rolls around in it, loves to just lay or sit in it. Yeah, weird as hell.

Get Lost…Part Cinco

Thursday, January 22nd, 2009

Yeah, there’s nothing good enough to write about…well, besides that whole INAUGRUATION (I’ll get that to that later)….except for LOST’s return!  So, you know the drill, I will tell you about my thoughts LIVE.

“We have to go back, Kate. We have to go BACK!!”

 Just finished watching the one hour special, also known as “if you’ve never seen this show before, here’s four years in 60 minutes.”  I had forgotten that Jack knows about Claire being his half-sister (it’s about time). 

OH, THE TIME TRAVELER!! 

So it’s been three years and apparently Ben has no idea what happened to the people on the island.  Don’t know how believable that is.

Haha, Bernard and Rose are the best old people ever.  Ok, so some people switched spots (like Locke) and the rest stayed in the same spot.  Hmm, and by stayed in the same place I mean they traveled to the past.  Well, we all knew this was a messed up show. Onwards and forwards people.

 Wow! Is that the dad from My So-Called Life questioning Kate?  “Then come back with the sheriff” cause I’ve dealt with sheriffs before!

Hello Sawyer with no shirt, slappin’ my Time Traveler!  Season 5 is looking good my friends. 

You know what I don’t like?  That weird smirk Juliet always has on her face.  What’s that about? 

What plane is that?  The one carrying the Virgin Marys with the coke?  I called it!!!!!!  Ok, Locke could seriously F with the future right now.  This is not good.  That plane isn’t supposed to fall until Boone dies.  That’s why he couldn’t move his legs when he got near it before!  Look at everything falling into place. 

And we just moved again. 

Back to Sun.  Great, that guy.  The dead one from Ugly Betty.

Aww, I missed Hurley and Sayid is such a badass, or as my friend Denva says “This dude is no joke!”  Oh! Knives in the back from the dishwasher!  HAHA, and they think Hurley did it.   

Is that Boone with the torch!!??  Damn, just Richard. 

“It’s a compass?”  ”What does it do?”  “It points North.”

So Richard is the one to blame for Locke’s death.  Great.

Yeah, so it’s been 46 minutes and I’m officially sick of this island time traveling mess.  Seems like the blood is a bad sign - so now Danny boy has to speak to Desmond.  Who, coincidentally, looks like Michael J. Fox when he wears the space suit in Back to the Future.  Ooh, Desmond is going back to Oxford to help them! 

Charles Whitmore is bad news.  Ohhhh, no one is backing Hurley’s ass up with the truth!  And Hurley just laid the shit down.  No help from him!  

So they can bring Ana Lucia back for a hallucination but no Boone? Uh huh, yeah, I get it.

Sawyer found himself a shirt.  Sayid looks like dead Uncle Bernie. 

Ok, whatever, Kate does not have to be in the same city AND gas station as Hurley.  That’s stupid.  Yes, I realize I said that coincidence was stupid and nothing about them time traveling.  

So if they go to the island they can never return?  God, why more questions?

SIDENOTE FROM COMMERCIAL BREAK:  Yeah, so, Patrick Swayze…making new series while sick….yeah.  Not the best idea.

Oh great, Hurley sounds as crazy as a loon. 

Neal = Annoying.  Blood nose and headache = BAD.  Poor Ginger is going down. Also, Neal is going to die soon…..yup, I’m smarts, or this show is too predictable.

Is Sun trying to set-up Kate to kill people?  Oh, guilt trip about Jin!  Nice work.

Do you really think Hurley’s mom believes him?  He sounded like me trying to tell people about GH when he was explaining the time on the island.  Did Hugo just throw a pizza pocket at Ben?  HA!  Damn, even when Ben is telling the truth he looks like he’s lying.  Run Hurley Run!  And now we have to get him out of prison instead of the nuthouse.

Welcome back Locke.

So this is Dan’s mom, wearing the cloak like she’s in The DaVinci Code?  Wait, what’s that old woman from? Is that the Dame Judi Densch? GD! I hate this show.

Except I love it.

Eeek!

I’m very much behind in my blogging, apologies all around - to my nonexistent fans :)  I’ll have to backtrack to Thanksgiving in NYC (Macy’s Day Parade!) and Christmas. 

I just got back from NYC today, I was down there for the weekend.  Pretty uneventful, though.  I didn’t dare travel out to Times Square and not because of the insane crowds or the potential for terrorist attacks (yeah, my dad is convinced), but because it was so damn cold!  I spent one other New Year’s Eve in the cold, at MGM no less, the only time it’s ever been cold in FL on New Year’s.  It was around 30 degrees all day long and I did not plan at all for this - no gloves or scarf, hell I didn’t own any at the time.  Disney was ransacked for everything that could possibly fly as warm, I would have wrapped a childs shirt around my neck at that point for warmth. 

So  yeah, I didn’t go out for the New Year.  I did eat dinner at Sparks Steakhouse, where John Giotti killed Paul Costellano, which was fantastic.  I also saw two(!) movies - Slumdog Millionaire and Revolutionary Road (which my friend kept referring to as Colonial Drive).  Really liked Slumdog, good story even if it’s depressing at times.  Revolutionary, however, was depressing the WHOLE time.  Well, 99% of the time. It’s been a decade since Titanic, and you all know my love for that movie, so I was really interested to see Kate and Leo paired up again.  Man, it was a bummer.  Their relationship is a complete 180 from the first movie.  The acting was great, don’t get me wrong, but it was just a real downer.  Makes marriage look like…hell.

Well, I am going to sign-off for now.  I made a resolution this year to spend less time on the computer and watching TV at night, and read more books instead.  Or crochet with the 100lbs of yarn I have.  Or finish a sewing project.  Yes, plenty of other stuff to do besides rot my brain with the pretty glow of the tube.
