Who doesn't want to be a loser?
What? What?! They're making a movie of this? With my girl Zoe as Aisha? Fabulous.
Man, I like Chris Evans, but if they had shoe horned a little QUINTOOOO into this movie, I would be in heaven.

Angels and Demons
Well "Angels and Demons" was quite an intense ride. Wow! I really enjoyed it and I must give the proper adulation to Ron Howard for directing a moving and horrific and entertaining movie. He'd done such a great job with the other movie, that I wasn't surprised that I was as moved as I was.
One disappointment though. Of course, like all people who watch movies, you get your suspicions right off the bat as to whether someone might be telling the truth or not. And sometimes you're led to believe someone is the villain who really isn't. When I watch movies, I try to call it before it starts. I had my suspicions about Ewan's priest, the woman scientist, one of the cops and I think a bit of the Swiss police head. I later settled on Ewan and probably the woman. She seemed very shifty-eyed on a lot of occasions. And Ewan, as cute as he was, was just too softly spoken, pious and "oh I just want to do the right thing". Even when we came upon the scene where it's being presented that the Swiss head is trying to brand Ewan, I still felt that something was fishy.
But as events unfolded more and he did the "heroic" thing about getting the bomb, I changed my mind, thinking, "oh, maybe he was just trying to do the right thing". And then when they had his name on their lips as being the new pope, I was thrilled, thinking that a young man like that could bring a modern sense to the church, blah blah blah...
Well, in a sense he was trying to do the right thing, but was going about it in entirely the wrong way. And when everything washed out at the end and he immolated himself rather than be captured and possibly murdered by the guards, I thought, "oh.... awww that's too bad! Not a twist I thought would happen." *pouts*
But overall it was a compelling and exciting movie that really held my attention throughout. I don't know if this one will stand up to repeated viewings as TDC did, but... we'll see. :)

First off, I love having a mood theme here. It's so much fun and second, I got my pre-approval stuff in the mail. Lots of official looking papers, that I'm going to have to tear through. I didn't get my asking price, but honestly that was just a number that I threw out to fish around to see what my limits were. But Wells Fargo did approve for about 28 K less, which is still grand in my book. *throws confetti* Now, I suspect the nerves will set in and I'll start to talk myself out of buying a home on my own. Let's hope that I won't do that!
Spent most of yesterday watching horror movies. I saw Friday the 13th (remake) and jesus I've never seen more hardcore sex scenes in my life, outside of porn. Minus the cunt shots, of course. But, man! Was all that necessary? Eh, what did I expect? So many fake boobs on such young girls really hurt to see. Meh, white girls do shit like that and then want to be taken seriously after showing their boobs in B-rated movies. Whatever.
Um, after that, saw "Walled In" I'll give it a "meh". After that itw as "Splinter" which was actually pretty darn good. All the actors were unknown, all shot around a gas station, decent quality, so some money went into the production... I don't know if I'd watch it again, but it was good enough, gory enough. I was pleased.
In Quinto news, I just found out that a coworker of mine crushes on him. She also crushes on Bana-boy as well. I knew that one, because I was the one who turned her onto him. But Quinto was new to me and I couldn't help laughing after we finished discussing the finer points of Sylar and the sy-brows and Spock. Small world.
Right now I am exhausted and hungry and in need of a shower. Worked out for about an hour today, ran and did my triceps and biceps and abs with a teeny bit of back. I loved that burn I was getting in the biceps especially. Love it! Now, must refuel and wash up. Yay!
