Tropic Thunder

You know, I had high hopes, or even, high expectations of this movie. Ben Stiller, Jack Black; they both had spotty histories with me. Dodgeball and Meet the Parents are STELLAR but Meet the Fockers and Zoolander fell flat with me. Shallow Hall and Orange County were great, but Nacho Libre was a stretch. And it seemed to me that they both were in this movie just to be IN a movie. Robert Downey, Jr was ok but that's still in the con pile b/c you expect him to be more than ok. Sadly, the best part of this movie was Tom Cruise's over the top movie exec portrayal. The whole movie felt forced. I have Mr Brooks sitting on my table right now to watch tomorrow and hopefully that will be a better show.

Black Friday

Wow, how shitty is Black Friday. I mean, really. You have seven zillion assholes all out at the mall trying to get the most product for the smallest amount of money and what you end up with is a bunch of pissed off people all crammed into a T-junction.
We did go out today, tho. This is my "anniversary gift" from the Boda. The fact that he actually went to the mall today was a big deal, in his world. The fact that he didn't, not once, bitch at the idiocy of the human populace, a bigger one! We bought some stuff and had a great day. Bella was talking to everyone and so many random strangers kept coming up to her and saying how beautiful she is! B/C, you know, she is! :) And she's great at smiling and talking and giggling for the masses. She could be president in 40 years.

Versus

And here I am, 12 beers in. Oh yes. 12. I'm sitting here listening to Lee play WoW and I'm debating on having more beer. I might as well drink. It's fun! Of course, I have no Marzia and no Tony to drink with anymore, and I have no bars to go to, but fuck it. I'm a mommy. I have to be up and alive in the morning.
And I will be.

Gotta love Google...

So, I'm looking into my stupidly large saltwater tank, and what do I spy with my little eye? Weird squiggle marks on the back corner of my tank. What the F, man? So, I decide to try and poke around online to find out what it is, but I can't seem to find the words to describe it. In the end, I type in, "saltwater tank white squiggly lines". And lo and behold, pages of hits! Of course, most aren't even remotely connected, but then I see one from this blogspot here, I find out that those squiggly lines are snail eggs (ewwwww) and then I decide, hmmm.... I think I'll open another blog, b/c you know, you can't be too thin, too rich or have too many blogs. :)
On another note, I need to be doing another Google search to find why my damn corals all died. Bastards were pricey, too. Erg. And off to Google I go!
