Mr T vs Chuck Norris, the Ewoks and the Munchkins

I think Spring has officially begun. It is here!
Now, Winter is still trying to hold on, but you can't hang on very long once things are put into motion.

I think one of the best scents in the world is a freshly aired out house.
 Windows open
air wafting in and out
curtains dancing in the breeze
Feeling the air revitalize your old winter weary bones.

Speaking of revitalization, I got a call from Hollywood Video today. They called to inform me that I have a free movie rental from them! While telling Jeffrey the great news, we discussed what we would like to get.
I suggested The Ewoks VS. The Munchkins.
He really wanted to see it.
Too bad I made it up when I realized he didn't want to see the movie I wanted to see.
I then asked him if he would like to see Chuck Norris VS. Mr. T.
That was another movie I made up.
I would pay good money to see those two movies.
I can just see the movie posters!

VS
TO
THE
END!!!

or
VS
WHO WILL WIN THE ULTIMATE FIGHT?
I PITY THE FOOL!
If any of you know of any screen writers, pass the idea along to them... but I get royalties! Oh, alright, we can share, 60-40. You can have the 60. See what a nice person I am?

What movie would you use your free rental on?
Even if the movie isn't made yet, what would you like to see made?

Yeah, I think I'd vote for the munchkins in the first showdown, but I don't know about the 2nd one.

hahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! hmmmm, free rental??? sisterhood of the traveling pants 2! 'cause i have read the books 4 times, yup, count 'em, 4 books, 4 times each. and i don't think i will ever convince sean to watch it with me, so it's either redbox or free movie;-) i do know a producer! don't forget you promised 60;-) sean's cousin is the producer on "without a trace." he also did "bill & ted's excellent adventure." a personal favorite of mine, hey! get that with your free rental!

I'd have to go with Willow because I'm kind of craving it right now, if you can crave a movie. And in a way it's kind of a combo of all the movies you mentioned.

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.

The End of This Chapter

Last night the quiet of the house was heaven.

After a full day of the park, the library and the kids at their grandparents house while Jeffrey and I went up to take care of our rental house, lease signing, moving out inspection and repairs, we were all very tired.

The children were finally nestled into their dreams, and I sat with Jeffrey, my head resting on his shoulder, his hand caressing my arm, just visiting.

We talked about the children.  
We talked about school.
We talked about our rental house.
And our plans for the future.
As we sat thus, formulating plans and dreams, we had a rude awakening.

More so me.
Because Jeffrey is so calm and even keeled.  He balances me perfectly.

While I stress and worry, he is there to patiently and softly guide me through the storms of my frustrations and mostly imagined hardships.

Last night was a perfect example.
We received the news.

The dreaded and anticipated and longed for news.

And it came in the form of an email from a good friend.


And reality s…
