The Hurt Locker

I saw this movie tonight, and would like to discuss. *semi-spoiler alert*
#1 what does "The Hurt Locker" even mean? The movie ended, and I still didn't know! ... I looked it up- apparently it's a saying for being injured in an explosion- or being sent to a place of ultimate pain. Weird.
#2 A couple times the music bugged me
#3 loved all the cameo's
#4 cinematography was WELL DONE. Very pretty.
#5 Why do I always see war movies? They make me feel uncomfortable.
#6 Do guys really like punching each other for fun?
#7 I think I missed an important scene because at one point two guys have a strange contrived conversation in a car.
#8 I really liked the blond character that wasn't James (whose name I can't remember)
#9 Junior mints improve every movie experience.
#10 I don't think this movie should have won so many awards... I couldn't tell when we reached the middle or any sort of climax in the story... the transition point was more of an anti-climax. So in that respect, the story was not great for me. But I do have to say the acting was really good all around, and it looked really good. And there were several riveting scenes- cohesively though it only landed on the good side of okay for me. (which could possibly be attributed to hype... after all, I was expecting it to be better than Avatar!)

New York for the weekend!

I drove up to NYC for the weekend to visit Brenda for her birthday! It was raining like crazy the entire time! We were passing so many people whose umbrellas were flipping, we tried to get a pic, but it was hard through the rain! Here I am driving the streets of New York... driving is so much more fun than walking! Parking is another story... I love Brenda's expression in this next pic... shows full confidence in my ability to drive in the rain and take a picture of her with the Brooklyn Bridge in the background! I've got mad skills, I know...

Ash Pro and Brenda both had birthdays this week, so we celebrated by brunching at the Clinton Street Bakery! It was so fun to catch up with both of them.And the pancakes were delicious!

We had so much fun spending the afternoon with Emily and Kyle! Definitely two of my favorite people.

We played Ticket To Ride, the super fun board game. I got last place :P

We made sure to pack my 36 hours with as much fun as possible! I got to see Kimmie Jones...The fabulous April!

And the handsome Colin! We wrapped up the night up with a cut throat game of SCUM! I beat Colin, every hand. :) He hates to lose even more than I love to win (which makes it SO much more fun to win...)

Thanks for the fabulous weekend Brenda! Happy Birthday!!!

Boy do I get carried away sometimes...

This is why my sisters think I'm a nerd, and my brothers love me!

I saw this pic on Facebook, it totally cracks me up. If I had a cat, this is what it would look like... (shout out to Deedee and Lucky, my surrogate weekend kitties!)
And did you watch the Oscars?! Ben Stiller is brilliant...
