Meet Dave: A Movie Review

In honor of the inauguration yesterday Jeffrey and I wanted to watch the movie Dave. Keith had already gone to bed, so we thought we would try to find it on the Internet.Jeffrey found a movie called Meet Dave starring Eddie Murphy. We ended up watching that movie instead. It is really weird. I think it is worth the watch if you are bored out of your mind and looking for something mildly entertaining. We laughed, but will probably never see it again. We were impressed with Eddie Murphy's acting abilities however.


My computer picture downloading capabilities was out yesterday so I never got my post published. Keith got a haircut. His hair was getting a little unruly and the mullet was becoming a little too much for me, so we pulled out the razor, put it on the longest setting we have, and cut it all off. He is military ready now. I sure liked his hair when it was a little longer, but what can you do?


Also, I am painting my cupboards. They are a hideous shade of orangish brown right now, and so I am painting them brick red. I think it looks nice. I can't wait until it is finished, though. It will be so nice to have a kitchen that actually looks taken care of rather than a kitchen that looks thrown together. Oh the joys and hard work of fixing up a house.

May I Take Your Order, Please?

I know that young people must have jobs. They have to start somewhere, but really, there has got to be some sort of intelligence test or guidelines before hiring people. Really.

We bought some crown molding a while ago. I thought we would have enough. Turns out, as we were getting ready to put it up, we found we are about 5 ln feet short. Just 5. How annoying is that? So, I called Lowes and ended up speaking with a young man (I am guessing hoping he was young). The conversation amazed me.

Me: "Hi do you carry any Trim-Tex crown molding?"
Lowes: "What's that?"
"A brand of crown molding. We are a couple of feet short."
"Is that like a brand of baseboard?"
"Well, yeah, sort of. Crown molding is decorative wood strip that goes along the ceiling."
"Oh, okay. So what kind of tile do you need?"
"Tile?"
"To go along the ceiling, right?"
"Uh, I don't need tile. I need crown molding."
"I hav…

Vegetarians at the Barbecue

We don't see our friends as often as we would like.  Something about us being the only ones married and with kids.  Whatever.  So any chance to have them all come play is a welcome one.  Since Jeffrey just had a birthday, we decided to have a barbecue tonight.

We are having a barbecue and we don't eat meat.  Kind of ironic, isn't it?  When I thought about it, this video came to mind.

What, Again?

"Crap.  I am pregnant again."

That is what I have been thinking all week long.

I am too tired.  I should not be this tired.  Why am I so tired?

I am too tired to make dinner.  I am too tired to clean the house.  Heck, I am too tired to even shower. 

The only thing in my experience that I could come up with was pregnancy.

But then I learned something.

When the little air sacks in the bronchial tubes become inflamed, it makes it difficult for the body to get enough air.  So the heart has to work twice as hard distributing oxygen throughout your body.  Which makes you unbelievably tired.

And not pregnant.

But with Bronchitis.

At least that is the unofficial diagnosis.

So I have been sitting on the couch all last week.  And weekend.  And today.  And probably for the rest of the week.  Probably for the rest of this blasted sickness.

But the feeling tired and coughing up a lung is not the hard part.  The hard part is leaving my family to fend for themselves.  We have been enjoying…
