D! I have just been catching up on your last dozen+ blog entries. I am supremely happy to hear of your joyousness related to the marriage you are enjoying from the depths of your heart. I can't wait until someday I can meet this man whom you will travel through all the worlds of God with, into eternity. My thoughts, prayers, and love are with you always!

that's awesome, glenn!! love it. keep rockin' it.
and moj, i wish that number were smaller. it boils down to roughly 2 episodes of either csi, monk, dead zone, criminal minds or something similar each day after i get home from work. it's about all i have the energy for. i suppose each episode is really less than a whole hour since we skip through commercials. but still... sigh...

Shokufeh: You have to see her.... she has this little notebook that says "June", and it never leaves her side! Seriously, dear... stop recording everything! :)- OK, I'm totally kidding.

Myk and I also LOVED Ratatouille. I think that if someone saw only that one scene where rats were running the kitchen, they might freak out and not see the movie. BUT, in the context of the film (and the fact that we know the rats were steam-cleaned before getting to work), it worked.
Such a cute, original movie!

yeah, the objective reality of rats running a kitchen is not so appealing. but... the concepts of evolution and acceptance and diversity were handled interestingly. i was laughing the whole time! awesome.

td, lacey and andrew!
and shok - thanks for the compliments, although i don't know that i always do a great job of living in the present. what i *didn't* count were the number of hours i spend worrying about things in the future. that exceeds 19, sadly. and the 3 movies were GREAT! ratatouille was hilarious (i am not ashamed to admit i loved it), die hard 4 was an awesome action flick, and ocean's 13 was super-slick. liked them all A LOT. of course, i am REALLY waiting to see the transformers movie. YES YES YES!!! wednesday. it's already planned.

You keep very close track of your month. That three movies sounds good. And it's impressive that your time dreaming about the future was limited to 19 hours. You must do a good job of living in the present.

I could not agree with Andrew more! :)

haha! Any month which includes a list with "Star Trek movies watched" is a great month.
