Janille picked me up at around 2:30 Monday afternoon and brought me down to the pond where the others were. I don't know why, but for some reason I thought we'd be on a rink or something. Not on open water. So I didn't actually try ice skating. Heh. Hey, at least I did walk out on the ice. That was a first for me, and I'm surprised they got me to do that much. *shudders* Yeah, it was scary. I hated it. Actually I had fun laughing at everybody and taking pictures, even though my toes went numb after a few minutes and there was no place to sit and they kept jumping up and down on the ice to show me how steady it was. Grrr, brats. Don't make fun of people's unnatural fear of open water, okay? Blergh. So that's actually all there is to say about that. I stood on a frozen lake with the fear of god in me. Had fun laughing at Nichole, Janille, Alicia and Liz. And thankfully didn't have to fight with Nichole too much about not wanting to skate. *pats camera* Can't wait to get these puppies developed...

Anyways, after that we all went back to the Hilger's house and ate hot soup and drank hot chocolate to warm up. We were gonna watch a movie but we ended up not having enough time before Liz and Alicia had to go to dance and I had to pick up Allia. So we watched a little TV and the Hilger's and I played cards. It was nice, nothing too special but still fun. Janille's room looks AWESOME, Nichole and Sarah and Denita did a great job redecorating. Very very cute. And Lady is still the sweetest puppy ever. Hehe.

So Janille dropped me back off at the dance studio in time to get Allia. We missed our exit twice (because Janille is an idiot, lol) and ended up being about 20 minutes late, but class ran late anyway. Allia was hyper, some fool had given her sugar, so the ride to her home was interesting to say the least LOL. She was wearing her new trucker hat that says "Freak" on it. *shakes head* The sad thing is she looked really cute.

To cut a long story short we stayed up much later than we should have and ate WAY too much sugar and terrorized my AIM buddy list. Allia met Chris. That was interesting. Allia kept nose-diving into her mattress and then CRACKING UP because she was crazy on sugar. rotflmfao! She's so crazy. Umm.. yeah, that's about all I can remember.

So Tuesday we made a special trip down to Manchester just so I could get Taco Bell. HEEEEE!!! IT WAS SO VERY EXCITING! YES, I KNOW I'M A GEEK, BUT HONESTLY PEOPLE, IT'S THE SIMPLE THINGS IN LIFE!!! I think we actually set a new record because we went to taco bell THREE times in a half hour. You heard me right. Three times in one half hour. Bwahahaha. It was Taco-licious fun. DON'T MOCK ME FOR MY TACO JOY!!!! Brenda also agrees with me that they should build a Taco Bell in Concord. Heck yes.

Anyway, on the way home we stopped to rent movies and buy some Jones' Soda. I've never had one before. They are TASTY. We got Green Apple and Berry Lemonade. Mmm. And they bottle caps have fortunes on them stolen from real fortune cookies. HEHE. And I told Allia we should submit a picture for their label (they change the label every month or so). So that was fun. Anyway, we rented Bruce Almighty and S.W.A.T.

...Both movies were terrible. Bruce Almighty bothered my conscious something terrible. I couldn't even finish it. PETE turned it off, and if PETE turns something off you know it's bad. It wasn't even all that funny, just offensive. The "Yahweh" scene is what really pushed me over the edge. I was doing fine until that, but that was just too much. You don't take God's name in vain. We turned it off the very next scene when he was turning the water into wine. It was a horrible movie, I wouldn't recommend it to ANYONE. No wonder so many people are atheists with movies such as these mocking God! Who could respect Him after something so degrading? *shakes head* It was awful. I wish I never saw it.

S.W.A.T. was another bomber. The highlight of the movie was looking for Dr. Pepper. BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAA!!! OKAY, IF YOU RENT THE MOVIE, YOU NEED TO KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR DR. PEPPER!!! I first noticed it in the first half hour of the movie they made sure to show a Dr. Pepper can for a solid 5 or 10 seconds, so of course I laughed to myself and said "Gee, I wonder who produced THIS movie?!" Ehe, but then they kept showing Dr. Pepper. Cans, billboards, vending machines... IT WAS AWESOME. EVERYONE WAS SO MAD AT ME BECAUSE EVERY TIME I SAW DR. PEPPER I'D POINT AND SHOUT! ROTFLMFAO!!! IT WAS THE BEST PART OF THE WHOLE MOVIE! I swear I must have counted at LEAST 12 different scenes with Dr. Pepper. And because of that I couldn't help but mock the movie by adding lines saying things like, "You look like you could use a nice, cold, refreshing glass of... Dr. Pepper! Aaaah!" "Dr. Pepper... it makes the world taste better..." "All I wanted was my bloody Dr. Pepper!" BWAHAHA. At the end scene, with the "train" (so as not to spoil the ending), Pete replayed it on slow motion and I couldn't help but blurt out, "If you look really closely in the background you can see Dr. Pepper!" IT WAS SO MUCH FUN! *Ahem* But seriously. Aside from the Dr. Pepper stuff there really wasn't much else to say. Character development was terrible, and the plot line suffered something awful. Bad movie. The highlights were looking for Dr. Pepper, listening for Colin Ferrel's accent to slip through (TWICE!), making fun of the "bloody french terrorists," and the best line of the movie: "You look like you need a band-aid!" I've also decided I want of of those "Molly" things (battering ram).

After that Allia and I watched the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. The character development in that one was EXCELLENT. The movie itself was kind of slow, though. I almost fell asleep near the end (yes I know it was the 'most exciting part of the movie', but it was almost 1am and I wasn't following, so sue me). But I adore the idea of using a bunch of real fiction characters and putting them all into one movie. Sean Connery was the PERFECT choice for Allan Quartermain, that was perfect casting. I loved Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde, Captain Nemo, all of them. And mother confirmed it, yes Picture Immortals are from another piece of fiction. I was having trouble remembering. And HA! TOM SAWYER! THAT WAS BLOODY AWESOME MAN! *sigh* So yeah, I liked the movie. The plot was slow, but they were setting it up for a sequel. Since it didn't do so good in the box office who knows if we'll get one, but I thought the movie in itself was the best out of the three I sat through Tuesday night.

And because I'm an idiot, I MISSED "24" AND "JUDGING AMY"!!!! DANG IT!!! Mom told me what happened though.... *sniff* Poor poor CLAUdia. I knew one of the three of them were going to die, but I thought it was going to be the dad. ROTTEN LITTLE BRAT OF A LITTLE BROTHER! GRRR! Oh well. I wonder what Jack is going to do once he finds out Claudia bit the dust. *sniffle* Awwww.

So Wednesday was rather uneventful. Allia and I watched MTV, which cracked me up because it was all about celebrity gossip. Couples. Fashion. Crap I don't care about. But it was funny, yo. Music videos and bad Ninja/Pirate movies followed. We basically just laid around until my Dr's appt at 3:30.

That went fairly well. Dr. Bell says I'm growing taller AND wider. Oh great. Just what I wanted, to get wider. I'm going to have to marry a giant just to have a decent aesthetically pleasing mate. LOL, which isn't cool 'cause all the cute boys are short and wiry! DANG IT! There are reasons why no boys ever look my way.

Afterwards mom and I went out to eat at Applebee's, which was awesome. I had one of their Take Three dinners or whatever they're called, where you get the appetizer, meal, and dessert in manageable portions. Mmm quesadillas and lime chicken with raspberry cheesecake for dessert... BEST CHEESECAKE EVER. WITH A CHOCOLATE CRUST. AND WHIPPED CREAM. AND WHITE CHOCOLATE SHAVINGS. AND RASPBERRY SAUCE! AAAaah, I've just made myself hungry.

After that mom and I went to the video store to rent movies. I wanted to get some "comfy" movies, because I was in the mood for an old movie I'd seen before that I really liked. I was thinking a Sean Astin flick and That Thing You Do or something along those lines. But mom saw "The Life of David Gale" in the new movie section and coerced me into letting her rent it. Bad decision. Good movie, but EXTREMELY disturbing. And when I say disturbing I mean it in the truest sense of the word. Not just something that kind of weirds you out or grosses you out or any small thing like that. Something that sticks with you and is the last thing you think of at night and the first thing you remember in the morning. Disturbing. Very disturbing. *shakes head* Wish I never saw that one either.

And there's not much else to tell about my week aside from that. That I can remember, at least. My mind has been like a sieve lately, I can't seem to hold a thought. It's rather frustrating. BUT moving on...

I'd also like to point out to anyone who's seen "Message in a Bottle" that if you notice, the production company for the movie was called "Tig!" I about pee'd myself. TIG! TIG PRODUCTIONS! I WAS HOPING DOM AND BILLY WOULD NAME THEIR TEAM THAT! Oh well. Hehehe, thought it was amusing and worth sharing.
