This is what I have been up to today. Clicky to find out more!
Renee has joined VOX. YAY! Renee is classified as a friend and as family because I just can't imagine it any other way. Go check out the pics of her adorable baby boy Tristan! :) Renee got married on the day that my husband and I got engaged. Oct. 22nd is like a good luck marriage day because my friend Stephanie got married that day too! :)
Just a random blog. Here is Renee and her cute husband with a cool name, Levi! :)
Marie Antoinette - I didn't really think twice about this movie whenever it was out in the theaters, but Patrick put in on our Netflix queue and I really, really liked it! Sophia Copella did an excellent job with this movie. I've never liked period piece movies with modern music, but this one was fantastic! I really liked the "I Want Candy" montage with the Harpsicord woven into the song.
The Motel - A funny little indy movie about a 13-year-old, Chinese boy who's family owns a small motel. He lives with his family there on-site and he sees all kinds of things while he's there. Very interesting little slice of life movie.
The Departed - This is another one of those movies I didn't think twice about when it came out, but we watched it a couple of weekends ago on the in-room-movie service at the Marriott in ATL. It was SO GOOD. I had to pee for about the last hour of the movie, but I didn't want to miss anything. It was really a good action/thriller/suspense movie. It is up for several awards and deserves them!
Jackass 2 - Believe it or not, I liked this movie for the most part. There was only one part that really, seriously grossed me out and that was when the one guy drank horse jizz. I couldn't watch...Just couldn't do it. Otherwise, it is so damn funny to watch these guys beat the crap out of themselves. I think its funny because of how they laugh - they laugh so hard that you can't help but join in.
Pan's Labrynth - Beautiful movie! I really loved the imagery. I really liked the narrator's voice too - even though I had to read the subtitles to understand :)
Epic Movie - It was a laugh. Check your brain in at the door and enjoy all the in-jokes and puns, but don't plan on walking away from this movie any smarter than you were before.
Jesus Camp - It gave me even more reasons to dislike religious radicals. This movie was made before a scandal hit the news. At the end of the movie, you'll see a preacher named Ted Haggard. That is THE Ted Haggard that is currently in the news with updates about his "recovery" from sexual problems. He was fired after he admitted to buying drugs and sleeping with a male prostitute. Hardly what I call practicing what you preach, huh?
What was the one toy you wanted as a kid that your parents never bought you?

A Barbie Dream House! I wanted one SO BAD, but we couldn't afford one. I think that my mom, while just sort of talking off the top of her head, had mentioned to me that she would look at yard sales to see if she could find an old one for me.
Sometimes when I got home from school, she would tell me that she got me a surprise and it was on my bed. I always ran to my room to see if she had found that Barbie Dream House at a yard sale. But she never did :(
However, one of my best memories was the doll house my dad made for me out of paneling. It was basically shaped like the typical line drawing of a house and I had to build Barbie a rope ladder to get Barbie to the 2nd floor. It was brown and ugly and had no furniture, but I had the best time with it anyway!
Patrick and I have been COMPLETELY ADDICTED to the show LOST. Everyone always talked about it and I never saw it, so we rented the first disk in season one to try it out. It is SO AWESOME. We are almost done with season one now and I want to just go ahead and buy season two. I never see TV when it's happening. It's always after the fact, but I think I like watching the whole seasons on DVD better than trying to catch it on TV.
