Texas, our Texas

Here I am folks, back in Texas. I'm sitting with two sleepy dogs who look thankful to be out of the heat. I'm here to spend the week with Cory, during which we are going to float the river (with Jamie and Damon!). I'm excited.

We are going to Rosas today! I miss cheap fast mexican food like nobody's business. Stupid excited cuz then we are going to Ulta. I don't know if I can handle so much in one day. And then this Thursday is Terminator! Whoo!

May movies:
X-men - enjoyed, even though I know it comically is not the same. Hot men with no shirts? Sign me up. The CGI was BAD at points though. Ridiculous. I mean, we have the technology, they certainly had the money, and it still looks like 1970s? Sheesh.

Star Trek - pretty bad ass. The characters were perfect, the acting was good (Zach, just let me know when you are in Mississippi), and the story wasn't too bad either. Could have used less bad boy rogue cowboy action, but whatevs.

To see:
Angels and Demons (thankfully I didn't read this one yet, so I'll be ok) and Terminator.

Then Harry Potter/Public Enemies/Transformers. Whew. That's a lot of summer movie action.

Started reading the Dark Tower series by Stephen King. So far, (book 1), I am unimpressed. He tends to do that to me. Underwhelm or overwhelm and nothing in between.

Another yay! Scott is selling me his old tablet. Then I am going to learn how to draw or something awesome like that and redo this site. All cool like. Hopefully.

Cats, cats, cats

I forget to blog. I really do. It sucks. I want a new webpage design, so I need to bribe scott into helping. :) I have a bunch of new fabulous pictures from NYC and from the Windmill place in lubbock up on flickr. I'm going to post some of them to the gallery as well. Let's share a few stories.

The cats are ninjas. They have hidden 25 amazon dollars somewhere and it's frustrating to no end. Especially when greyson decides that 5am is a great time to play. ON MY STOMACH. He's also gotten really bad at chasing his tail. While standing the edge of the bathtub with a wet tail. Imagine him whipping in circle and water flying everywhere. Then you have my face intercepting the water. Ugh.

Bruce is currently thumbing through the papers on my desk that I was working on. It's a great cat house in here. Great. He's actually licking the envelopes clean. Yeah.

In something other than cat news - movies! Tv! Pictures! and Books!

Movies: I have volunteered for the Oxford Film Festival. It's got an oscar nominated short coming to it! :) I get to meet all kinds of cool people and I'm working enough that I get into the whole speal for free. Yes. I have the cool title of being INFO coordinator. What does that mean? I have no idea. Should be a blast though. Oxford has the coolest art stuff. Of course, it's mainly full of academics who need distractions...

TV: I'm trying to catch up on lost (read: watch the whole 4 seasons) because I started watching it with friends yesterday. That was a blast, and makes me glad to get out of the house. Also BSG is on, Fringe, CSI, Heroes, Terminator, NCIS...the list goes on and on. I would never leave the house if I didn't have DVR.

Pictures: Also joined the University Photography Club. More to come the meeting is on Monday...excited!

Books: I'm trying to read 50 this year. I know I read fast, but work gets in the way and I forget to read and etc...excuses excuses excuses. So, I joined the group on goodreads to make sure I actually do it. I have about 100 unread books in my house. And I want a kindle...so I need to get them read. Reading about 3 right now. Eek!

Well crap, back to work since I came home sick today and took a 3 hour nap. At least tomorrow is Friday!
