Reservoir Bunnies


Of course there is cursing. That’s your warning. But come on, it’s bunnies with guns. It’s funny.

Yes, it’s true. I am not a big fan of Tarantino. I think he’s overrated. But I have seen some of his movies (three to be precise). I don’t really care to see any more of his flicks. I won’t be swayed.

Life In CO

I don’t really feel like there is much going on right now. But someone out there may be interested in something I might say.

The weather has been weird. Some days it’s beautiful, most days it’s windy (if you read Geoff’s blog you know this). I want our grass to be green. The yellow makes me sad. Today it’s snowing. Not enough to accumulate, just enough to cover the grass a little. The roads will probably be fine. It’s supposed to be back up to 70 and sunny on Sunday.

I am looking forward to my in-laws coming to visit. I feel like I’ve been in a rut, and a visit will either break me out of it, or make me appreciate the rut. 🙂 I don’t mean it in a bad way. I guess I just enjoy having visitors, and miss the company. I am looking forward to going to Estes Park, and having lunch at the Stanley. That is the one thing I want to do.

Geoff’s birthday is next week (Tuesday). Since we already had cake, maybe we’ll pick up some devil cookies.

House this week was hilarious! I laughed out loud so many times. And big ups to Fox for renewing it for a third season.

I watched Oscar’s Best Picture winner Crash last night. It was good. It definitely was an ensemble picture, you couldn’t pick out one actor above another. But if you had to, I would have to say Terrence Howard was the strongest. Ludacris was really good in it, that surprised me. I’m gonna close with a quote from it.

Anthony: It’s just black people demeaning other black people, using that word over and over. You ever hear white people callin’ each other “honky” all the time? “Hey, honky, how’s work?” “Not bad, cracker, we’re diversifying!”

Sigh. Daylight Savings sucks. I hate missing an hour of sleep. 🙂 But it is nice to have it still be light outside at 6pm.

I had a good weekend. Saturday the boys had swimming, and I was able to do some shopping. Bought the other part of Geoff’s gift from Elijah and some Rubbermaid bins to store the clothes Elijah has outgrown. Then we had our bbq Saturday night. The house seemed full with 3 girls running around, and Elijah following them. The ice cream cake was excellent, I forgot how much I love Dairy Queen’s cakes. Sunday I worked in the nursery at church, and afterwards Chad & Khara came over and we got chinese takeout. Now that we’ve tried someplace (it was okay) we should try a different place.

Last night we watched a special on one of the HD channels, it was Jeremy Piven’s Journey Of A Lifetime. He traveled to India, because he loves their culture and had never been. It was cool, and part two airs next week. It’s premiering tonight on the Travel Channel (in case you don’t get DHDTV). Geoff says he’ll watch almost anything if it airs in HD.

I ordered Mulan with my amazon gift certificate. I’ve been wanting to get it on DVD for a few years, and finally decided to do it. It’s probably my favorite non-Pixar Disney flick. I hope it’s a movie Elijah will enjoy when he’s older.

Went to Peet’s today for free coffee. They are actually offering free coffee or tea every day this month between 1-3pm. Get yourselves to a Peet’s! (note to my CA friends, Peet’s is in Newport Beach, across from the big library and Fashion Island)

I’ll close now with a quote from Serendipity.

Dean: Yet even in certain defeat, the courageous Trager secretly clung to the belief that life is not merely a series of meaningless accidents or coincidences. Uh-uh. But rather it’s a tapestry of events that culminate in an exquisite, sublime plan.

Happy April Fools Day!

Got this email today, and it made me smile.

April 1, 2006

All of us at HarperCollins Children’s Books would like to extend our sincere apologies for yesterday’s surprising public announcement by Lemony Snicket. We discourage our authors from disclosing the contents of a book so far in advance of its publication — especially a book as highly anticipated as Book the Thirteenth, The End, which will not be released until October 13, 2006.

As a courtesy to dedicated fans, we thought it only fair to share Mr. Snicket’s revelations in an open forum. Below is the key information revealed by Mr. Snicket regarding the upcoming final installment of A Series of Unfortunate Events.

Yes, the Baudelaire siblings’ difficult journey comes to a triumphant end.
Yes, their parents are very happy with their new home.
Yes, Klaus Baudelaire does skip a grade and win a spelling bee.
Yes, Count Olaf gives each of the children a pony.
Yes, Beatrice is actually the hook-handed man.
Yes, they all live happily ever after, a phrase which here means “plus eternity times infinity!!”
Mr. Snicket also revealed that The Beatrice Letters, a collection of personal letters which will be published in September, is full of funny poems and doodles of unicorns.

We hope that none of this information will lessen your interest in Mr. Snicket’s research. Just because everything turns out perfectly in The End certainly does not justify the terrible things that have befallen the Baudelaires over the course of the last twelve books.

Thank you for your support.

Happy April Fool’s Day,
