Busy weekend, what with a trip to Sea-Tac on Saturday and friends over from the mainland on Sunday. I just adore having visitors from the mainland civilization, and they seem to love coming to visit. A few friends are coming over to plan our Imbolc celebration, so I've only a few moments before they arrive, according to their last email.
We went to see "Ocean's Twelve" last night. Its not the quick dash, frantic, fun paced movie "Ocean's Eleven" was, and its dasterdly SLOW about midway through, but its a lovely movie, though Julia Roberts looks horrid! What on earth happened to that woman, she looks skeletal and exhausted the entire movie. The whole cameo with Bruce Willis was BORING and not in any way necessary to the plot - which contributed to the SLOW AS SHIT middle of the movie. Oh well..
Mom & Dad are apparently considering getting a Golden Retriever puppy, so Mom & my sis, Emily are off to check out a litter. I'm extremely ambivalent about this, so stay tuned for more commentary.
Something that's making the rounds - enjoy!
