Whoa, I just realized I didn't update yesterday.

I'd consider it slacking off except for the fact that I didn't do a damn thing all day long. House was reallyreally good though.

Last night/this morning Liss left for her vacation in Florida. Lucky skank. I want some warm weather.

This morning I went to the grocery store with mom to pass some of the time. Didn't get much of note outside of some fruit, rabbit stuff, and mom bought me sushi for lunch. Spicy something roll and it was amaaaaazing.

I watched tv for a while and ended up soaking in the tub while watching some Strangers With Candy on the portable DVD player. Strange show. It's no Arrested Development, but it'll hopefully keep me occupied for a few days.

Ate leftover sushi for dinner, then fed the snake and gave his tank a good cleaning. I don't replace the bedding very often and it was in need of a changing.

Now I'm just relaxing, drying some towels for mom, and waiting for the big storms to hit. And Hells Kitchen. Also need to run over to Liss's place tonight to feed pets and bring in the mail. Hoping the storm calms before I get over there.

Aaaaand that should be my evening.

Tomorrow I have even less going on in the day, aside from picking out clothing for a family portrait at night for the church directory (and because we haven't had one in forever). That should be fun to primp for.

Gonna have to tape the ANTM finale though. Damn.

Happy Mothers Day to all of you mothers out there!

Today was alright.

Waking up to stormy weather was nice.
Unfortunately, my family is all at their wits end for whatever reason. My dad won't stop flipping out and getting all anxious about absolutely nothing and that drives mom crazy so she starts yelling.

Whatever people, damn, can we RELAX?

Either way, they all got their acts somewhat together and we went to the IMAX to see Speed Racer.

It was cute! I wouldn't recommend it to everyone. It's fun to look at and OH MY is it COLORFUL.

Spritle and Chim Chim stole the show though. They were hilarious.
John Goodman was perfectly cast.
I could listen to Racer X be all bitchy and dark for hours.

Holy God the flashing and quick cuts though. I'm surprised I don't have a headache from the visual intensity. It was really cool though, interestingly done.

There is stuff I didn't really like about the movie, for instance, Speed needed to be more likable than he was, and that was kind of weird. And some of the visuals looked like they were supposed to be 3D but weren't. If they had been, that would have taken it up quite a few notches on the Awesome scale.

All in all though I'd say I had fun.

KFC for dinner is going to tear up my insides after all of that popcorn.

OH, and to randomly note: the way we went to the IMAX is the route I'll be taking to work. I like the highway I'll be on for most of the ride. It's really pretty, actually. Which is weird to say about a highway. And it goes past IKEA, so Liss and I have to go there sometime. AND it's a quicker route to Zero Gravity than the old route. (The IMAX exit dumped us off right there.)

Okay, shutting up now.
