We watched a couple of movies this weekend. Friday night the whole fam-damily went to out for sushi and went to see Ice Age II. It was okay. It was cute and funny here and there but not near as funny as the first, in my opinion. It just seemed like they threw in all the standard "formula" elements, i.e., love story, comedic morons, dance numbers. The best scenes were, of course, with Scrat. SO silly! Laughed big time at those scenes.
Then last night we watched "Everything is Illuminated" with Elijah Wood. It was very good. I liked the Ukranian translator character. "Pardon my English, it is not so premium." Just a very bittersweet story. There was one VERY disturbing scene in it though. Both Glen and I had to avert our tender little peepers.
We also have "The Squid and the Whale" which I'm hoping we'll get a chance to watch tonight. Jeff Daniels is in this one and it sounds pretty good.
On the 24th of this month, we're going to switch to the Blockbuster's new deal of getting movies in the mail, ala Netflix. $9.99 a month and you get three movies at a time. We currently do the deal at Blockbuster where you can rent two movies at a time for $24.99 a month. We never switched to Netflix just because we tend to be very impulsive with what we want to watch. But for $10 a month and three movies, we gonna give this deal a go.
So it's 6:30 here and we're still lookin' at another two hours of daylight. I just LOVE this time of year when we first switch to daylight savings time. Love the sun!
See you later! Love youuuuu.....
