Say What I Think

This movie would have been great had it not hit the 3 strike rule toward the end. It had it in there 4 times, to bad it couldn’t be a keeper because it was pretty good. It is about a man who dream is to be in the CIA, and he goes for training on the farm.
He was the longest to hold out for torture longer then anyone else. Well I guess that’s good, eventually he ended up being a undercover special agent, but really wasn’t. The person he was working with was a snake and was using him, to gain what he wanted. The girl he had the hots for was on the same case but they where not on the same side. His cover was he did data entry for one of their places, and was a programmer so he must of known a lot about ram.
I would recommend this movie for people who don’t care about harsh language in it. It was a fast paced movie and was for the most very good until the end when they where using strong language. Sometimes there is a need for strong language like the very end scene I wouldn’t have really been concerned for the language if they used it. The sound quality was good in this movie once we found the right volume we did not have to change it several times. This makes watching a movie more pleasant. The two main characters had good chemistry to. This movie was well put together even though they reached our strike rule.

Let me start me start by saying I think I could have done better in the mixing of the sound tracks then they did. The dialog was very soft through most of the movie but the music was so loud it sometimes felt like it would bust our ear drums by listening to it. There were a couple of places even though the tv was loud we struggled to hear the dialog between some of the actors. Other then this problem the movie was pretty good.
When Spiderwick Chronicles first came out many people said it was a rip off of Harry Potter. In the beginning of the movie, I could see that some what but not really. I think those to movie are pretty much their own movies. This movie had 3 main kids as the important characters and then some mythological creatures. The kids went to go and live in their uncle house, which had been abandoned for nearly 80 years. Then they found a book, that pretty much open their eyes to see what couldn’t be seen.
The mother was left the father, which is why they ended up living in the house. I wouldn’t say it was as good as Harry Potter because it wasn’t but it was good on it own merits. The movie kept up with a good pace. Some places in the movie, we just couldn’t help but laugh and say Oh gross.
I wish their sound controls where better because I think if I wasn’t worried about turning the TV up and down then it would have been more enjoyable, to bad they didn’t have a good audio racks. I found this movie to have some areas where you had to ask questions but never really got any answers for the question. Like where did all the stuff come from in the little elevator thing. Maybe it was a where they went for vacation or it belonged to the little girl who lived there 80 years ago, that all we could have guessed.

This is a good family friendly movie, the closes it came to swearing was toward the end of the movie but it was like Sh and then nothing. I don’t think I would recommend it for young children maybe about 7 or older I would say depending on the child.

Let me start by saying, I thought I might be bored to tears. For One More Day, I honestly think Oprah could have done better. Sorry I know that sounds harsh but I have watch things with her in it or that she been a part of and it was much better. This movie is very slow movie, and sometimes the plot is hard to follow. Many times my husband and I would ask what’s going on is this a flash back or present time.
The main character was a washed up baseball player, who was on a suicide mission. He got to spend one more day with his mom and find out why things where the way they where. When he came back to he had the cops there, so his mom was pretty much a dream but didn’t seem like it.
My husband and I where at first a little concerned with watching this movie because we just got a bad report from her doctor. We where worried it might just hit way to close to home, it didn’t hit even close to home. The man didn’t respect or treat his mom very kindly never. He was a daddy boy who needed to learn a couple hard lessons from his mom. Personally I didn’t like any of the characters in this movie.
The plot moved very slowly which didn’t give it a real fluidness. Maybe the book is better since it’s based on a book, I don’t know.
What did I like about the movie, at the end he seemed to have realize a little more about life. Even though he was a goat to his mom, she still loved him and was there when he needed her. Maybe this movie would have been better if we had some home theater lighting.

At night before I fall a sleep, I read some. I am a picky reader, because I don’t like books who use G-d’s name in it in a ugly light. I don’t mind a few cuss words here and there I can handle that but not when it comes to taking G-d’s name in vane it one of my pep peeves. A couple weeks ago I got a new book from a Author, who I have read some of her young adult stuff. I started reading young adult because for the most I don’t have to skip over a bunch of cussing. I am also picky because if a author does not catch me with in the first chapter, I will probably not finish the book. I have plenty of books laying around unfinished because they didn’t catch me by the end of the first chapter, very seldomly will I read further. I will if I see promise in the book it might speed up and get better for reading..
I got “The Host” by Stephenie Meyer, it’s her newest book. I am looking forward to her next one coming out. “The Host” is about a alien race that’s pretty much has taken over earth and they live in human bodies controlling them. The main Alien is called Wanderer, but she not like the others, she has ended up caring for her human host and doesn’t want to bring her any pain. Eventually she ends up in a bad sistuation because her humans kind of hate her and don’t treat her well at all.
I have found it very hard to put this book down, I got to bed say, I am just going to read a chapter. Sometimes I read at 3 chapters then look at the clock and say Oh my it’s midnight I better go to bed. I I wake up early. So let me say thank you to Stephenie for writing so good that I don’t want to put it down.
Sometimes it’s easy to relate to her characters even if they are undesirable type of characters. Eventually things get better for Wander but then it seems like she might do something that wouldn’t end well for her. I am not sure how the book ends because I haven’t gotten there just yet.
Wander pretty much befriends the humans even after they treated her harshly and only 2 treated her with any amount of compassion.
I would recommend this book for even a younger reader if they can read at about a 5th grade reading level it may be higher then 5th grade for reading, but I know by the time I was in fifth grade I could read all the words in the book. I am surprised my lighting hasn’t burned out with how much I been using it. I do not recall reading any cuss words in this book, to be honest I don’t think I have ever read anything like that from this Author. I do know I enjoy her books a lot and normally I don’t enjoy many Authors. I just find I read through the authors I like very quickly and then I am lift with wanting more for a couple of years. Good thing I just found her a couple months ago because she got enough to keep me busy until the next one comes out soon.

I will start by saying I was surprised it wasn’t pulled at and that my husband and I didn’t even want to pull it out. It is rated NC 17, I can understand because there are a couple of very intense scenes on the movie and a little big of nudity, not a lot of it. I will say this movie makes you second think about wanting to scratch a itch while watching it. It was a good type of horror kindof the type that plays with your mind. I like those type of movies the ones which aren’t all bloody all the time and just discussing just to be that way.
There was one scene 2 scenes which where very intense and mad me me want to say no don’t do it, or oh no. One of them was with one of the girls trying to cut the things out of her body. My husband and I when we saw the previews thought it was bugs that where roaming around in their body but it was not, it was actually some kind of cursed plant growing inside of them.
One thing I found interesting was the plant life in the movie, it was very different. But this movie starts it’s horror the same way most other horror movies start off. Get everyone away from any way of helping them and while we are at it lets make it impossible for them to escape from it.
I wouldn’t recommend this for younger teen but I am not sure it needs to be rated NC 17 but they probably doing it for a reason because some of the scenes are fairly intense.
They started from a hotel where they where all safe, I wonder if hotels use Danze faucets.

There are several Perkins through out the twin city. We have one here in Bloomington very close to where I live, close enough for walking. I won’t say where because well I don’t want the whole world knowing where I am at. On Saturdays is usually our date night, when we do not have bible study to go to. We where trying to figure out what was going to be for dinner, my husband wanted a omelet.
We have eggs here, so I could have made it he suggested using turkey pepperoni, then suggested we go to Perkins instead. I felt this would be a good idea but kind of wonder now if it was. I will just put it this way not even after 20 minutes of eating, I got a very unhappy stomach. I don’t think it’s from the food their because the cook cleaned the grill, if it was my pork allergy i would be in hives by now. Maybe when he cleaned the grill he lift some left over soap that would cause a person to have the liquid stuff coming out.
Well we got there and no one where there but one other couple. We ordered our food and got it in a very timely manor. I ordered egg benidect with out the pork. I know the grill was cleaned because of the color of the eggs they was the same color as my eggs I make at home so chances are good.
My husband order his omelet, and a cup of soup. Nothing in what we order would be a good fat burners because it was all rather fatting.
I got a Raspberry muffin with my dinner but ask for that to go. I also had the breakfast potatoes. Maybe I should have stayed away from grease food. But you know I had the same reaction today at church when I ate, so I am chalking this up to a stressed stomach reaction.
We really do enjoy our little Perkins they are very clean and tonight had someone cleaning the dining room while we where there. The Wait staff is always ready and welling to help.

We all know how expensive going to the movies have become. Last weekend my husband and I wanted to go and watch a movie, so we went to our local movie theater about maybe 10 to 15 minutes away. We soon found out they raised there prices to 10 bucks a ticket and it looked as if they did away with their before 5:00pm cost for a ticket. We don’t mind the cost going up a little, that’s not a big deal. Everything else is going up so we expect it to happen.
We decided to leave because 20$ for both of us to watch a movie with out counting in the snacks we felt would just be to much for us. The snacks normally cost us close to 20$, so this would have been 40$ by the time everything was said and done. My husband and I decided this weekend we would go to Lakeville which is close to a 30 minute drive, something we don’t always like doing because of the price of gas. We have went to Mueller Family Theater a few times, and always felt welcome there but didn’t like the fact that everything had to be paid in cash. My husband and I never really have cash on us at least never enough to watch a movie and pay snacks, so we had to use the ATM and be charged couple bucks for it. My husband and I share the cost, we take turns one of us pays for snacks the other one pays for tickets.
Since the last time we were there they had changed some things, and I have to say it was for the best. They had changed the price of their before 5pm tickets price by 25 cents. That is not bad at all. They also now except debt or credit cards which is the reason why their ticket prices went up. So I felt this was well worth it. It wasn’t a unfair increase and they probably could have went a little more up with out me being unhappy with the increase. So the movie tickets for my husband and i was 12.50$ this isn’t bad at all. It is less then we would have spent close to home, and I think it makes up for the amount of gas we spent going there too.
Now it was time to get snacks. Normally at other places we are stuck with taking the quick picks, and can’t have anything we really want. My husband sometimes like Nachos I am not a big fan of Nachos but they are nice sometimes, at our other place it was at least 4.50, here it was less then that. I had saw some Ice Cream dots I wanted those where 3.50. My husband and I both wanted some Licorice and some sour patch kids, those where less then our other place. I wanted a large pop and I believe that was 3.50 by the end of everything I spend 15.50 on snacks and my husband bought his own drink, which I think is far since usually I ended buying my own drink.
My husband and I saw “The Happening” it was good but very intense. A couple times I had to cover my eyes, and a few times my husband and I both said okay we get the point. I personally like the earlier movies by this director a little better. He received one strike, which shocked us because he always has very creative ways of cussing.
The movie theater was very clean. My husband and I were the only two watching the movie. I hope they get more movie goers finding them, and seeing that they are affordable still and I hope they stay that way. The snack area was clean and both the woman bathroom I was in were clean. I was actually surprised by the amount of cleanlinesses there. There customer service was good, and most everyone one I saw did there job with a smile on there face. When the movie was over they came to clean the room, at least they didn’t have much cleaning to do but the 3 who came to clean had smiles on there faces. When I see people smiling at there job it makes me feel more welcome.
My husband and I have been to enough places together where we have dealt with customer service people who look unhappy and didn’t have a smile, those are the ones we normally wanted to get away from.
There will be some good movies coming out in the next few months, so maybe a gift certificate for a movie would make a good bridesmaid gifts, since more wedding happen in the summer.

You know some days it feels like the whole world might be against you. I was on my way home to meet my husband, and I got a phone call from my temp company. Well I decided to talk to them about the job they where offering me while driving suddenly my tire Popped. Great, just what I need it was close to 6pm and you know those places all close right around there. Just lovely, I told the person I was speaking with my tire just blew I need to go and call someone to replace the tire and rudely hung up. At the time I was in thick traffic in the left lane so I needed to be off the phone to get my self over to the right lane.
I called 411, some days I think they are my best friend expecially when I need help now.Before I called I did start the preparations for taking the tire off and putting on the spare. I looked down at what I was wearing and said to my self wait a minute, you idiot you can’t change a tire in your business clothes and in a dress this isn’t going to work, with out damaging my clothes. I called Discount tires which I was about three miles away from, before going there I decided it would be wise to get some of that stuff that fills the tire not a good idea it did not work. I was talking to the guy and he told me they closed at 6pm, I said I would try to get there before and he asked me how long it would take me to get there I told him I be there at a few minutes after 6pm. He told me not to worry, he would stay open for me. Wow this is one of the few times companies have been willing to wait to help a person.
I got there, I ended up driving the van with the flat tire. Now I am a very text book driver, I turned on my hazard but kept as close to the speed as safely possible which wasn’t hard on the street because of it’s low speed but still felt the need for hazards on.
I had arrived to Discount tires at a few minutes before 6pm. Now I ran from my van to Target which was about 2 city blocks and then ran through the store and back to my van. I tried to get the stupid tire stuff to work but it just didn’t work. Now I have a problem because I am not going to get a tow for 3 miles not if it’s going to cost me 120 bucks. I just had the Hubcenter replaced on that side. I know the Tire wasn’t very good, but I was hoping it would wait until I got a more stable job.
The gentle man who waited on me did a very good job. He told me not to worry, I was very stressed out! I was upset, today I had a pretty good day and after my interview and talking to my temp company who was offering me a job that they offered the other day then placed someone else. Maybe this is a oman not to take the job considering my luck with the company but oh well. Well Discount tires got the van done and stayed later to help me in the end I only had to spend 67 bucks and got to see how bad my tire was, I am blessed I didn’t jump on the highway. Now I know my left tire needs replacing within the next 2000 miles maybe with my next pay check I will do that.
Discount tires has a very good recipes for keeping and gaining new customers. They took the time out to help me in a time of need, and now tomorrow if I get called to go to this on the job interview I can go and not worry. I am glad because with my end of the they where a reliever to stress and I am glad they where.

My cat earned me a new outfit today. I had to find something cheap and quick. We had a picnic to go to today and it started at 11am. I couldn’t find anything that worked well that I washed and what I had that would work the cat had his bodily functions on. Great, So I looked at my bank account and decided what I had to spend. I gave my self a limit of $25, I knew if I was going to meet my budget I would need to go to Wal-mart which is about 10 minutes away.
I jump in my van and got to Wal-mart, you know there was no greeter there today. I found there adult clothing finally because it looked more like young teen clothes to me then adult stuff. I went to woman and well that still a little to big for me, I am not a 1X, or larger. I am about a 10 to 14 depending on what it is, I hate clothes shopping and would rather not go.
I found a cute little short skirt thing, I tried it on and it looked nice. I found a tanktop and hated it, it made me look all busty. I decided to look for another tanktop, or short sleeve short. I found one I liked it was a tanktop. Well I walked out of Wal-mart only spending $13, wow only 13 I stayed $7 under my budget. Great, this is a good thing.
I like Wal-Mart because for the most their people are not bothering you, offering to help you. When you need help they for the most are fairly helpful. When clothes shopping I would rather not have people asking me if I need help, unless it a friend. Now I finally saw a swim suite I like so on Thursday or Friday I think I am going back and getting what I like. It’s hard for me finding clothes that fit nicely, I would love to lose a few pounds. I have to say I like the outfit I got to day and for the most Wal-Mart did a good job on Customer service today.
I have a couple friends expecting so maybe I should look for some crib bedding as gifts.

Yesterday my husband and I went to Dicks Sports to get some bug repellent and some bug bite stuff. The customer service was good there, but i prefer another place other then them. We found out they raised the fishing license this year to but oh well guess they are going to get it from us one way or the other.
I had a thing on my face, it wasn’t like a normal pimple you know the one that acne treatments work for, it seemed like I had something irritating my face. It was itchy, I haven’t been bitten by anything but I did scratch my face at work. So maybe I got something in there and it decided to get a little infection. I opened it some how, and then it got more itchy. Today I decided to try a little StingEze, because I was itching it and causing it to hurt more and sting more.
I put some of the Sting Eze on and waited a few seconds first it was like almost a soothing cool feeling, and then I couldn’t feel it any more. It was bugging me with out touching it. Well I haven’t itched it for a while know, but I am sure if I where to touch it I would be itching it like a mad woman.
