I thought directions were just hard to understand in our old hometown. We saw this sign the other day:
“E. NorthWest Highway East ->”
So, which direction do you want to go? Apparently, this street has got plenty of choices. Except South.
While we were watching “Sky High” last night (which was a funny, but fairly predictable film – what else do you expect from Disney?) they had a preview of “The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe.” I’ve seen the trailers online. They looked pretty cool, but I have to say this one looked very impressive on the big screen. I can’t wait to see that movie now.
I also have to gripe about big trucks/SUVs/tanks/Urban Assault Vehicles – just because they make parking so dangerous for us. People who dive these things seem to LOVE to park next to us! When backing up, we can’t see around these monstrosities to know if there is a souped-up turbo junkie showing off for the girl he just spotted walking to her car – as if she would care. So, we just have to say a prayer, and easy out slowly until we are around Mt. I-Wanna-Smash-You-Little-Bitty-Cars or we feel a strong jolt.
So what are the other movies we have been seeing lately? “The Pacifier,” “Monster-In-Law,” and “Guess Who.” We love the dollar theater!
I found this image of our family crest online. I also found out that all of our ancestors migrated here from Liverpool, England. That explains the music interests. My Dad said that we mostly Irish, so I am trying to find out what part of Ireland that is.
You, know, I had a really cool thought yesterday, but I forgot it. Oh, well…. So, no cool thoughts today, or updates on the house. Or, updates on us really. Just seeing how long you will keep reading this before you realize that I am just wasting time – mostly yours 🙂 Because I could just go on and on about the Baylor controversy or war in Iraq or the most recent conspiracy theory that I heard that was obviously false, or …..
