I THINK I'VE GONE MAD!

Party time!

Izzy's about to turn 6, and we are having a party! I must be crazy to host one for a bunch of 6 year olds, but it should be fun.. we are headed to the local pizza/game/golf/bumpercar spot, so it should be exciting -- we already have a few rsvp, boys only so far.

busy busy busy week! It's been crazy here, but that's what keeps things exciting, I guess.

Movies, not for the faint of heart

Chad and I just got back from our date... Tonight was the first time we saw a movie on opening night in a loooonnnnnggggg time! We chose Grindhouse, and let me tell you -- this was interesting. I don't think everyone will "get" it, but it's up there as far as movies go... What made it interesting (among the extremely gratuitous blood, gore, and perverts) were the unexpected trailers and ads in the movie. Unexpected, because they just don't happen like that anymore!

The cast of characters/ actors is entertaining. Hey, who knew Josh Brolin (Brand from the Goonies) could play such a weirdo! It is long, but it really didn't seem like you were sitting in there for a long time... My recommendation, see the movie at the big screen. You'll want to stay to the end - you'll never look at Kurt Russell the same way again!

It's Spring, I think....

Well, I know this is Ohio weather -- it was nearly 80 yesterday and SNOW tonight! It's piling up outside on the patio furniture.

The Izzster is up at her Nona's for a few days of her spring break... It's so quite without her here!

Today, on the way to work, I saw a tree on a wire - sparks and smoke were just starting to form. By the time I got my phone dug out of my purse, I saw the FD racing towards it... that's about it for my excitement for the day!Â

We are mostly moved in... yes, we've moved again (UGH - for me, this is my 14th move since starting college, boy do Ihave this down!)   Actually, we are only staying here for a little while... we found a place and are building in a cute town nearby. If all goes well - we'll move by September! The house is pretty cool, and we are selling out a bit, by going to "suburb-land" not quite Stepford, and I hope not over a burial ground, a la Polterguist! (Step into the light, Carol Anne!)Â

After just a few short weeks here, we've had a touch of mold in basement, the windows upstairs don't open (latches are installed wrong); the patio screen door has a "doggie door" CUT out of the screen; there is a big round patch of dirt (pool) that has 1 weed in it, int he backyard; our mailbox was demolished by some idiot driver; the fan is the fridge didn't work (55degrees in there!); Oh, and there is about 6 inches of space between our bed and the wall on one side, and the dresser on the other. Fun Fun Fun!Â

Off to enjoy American Idol -- My money's on Melinda or Lakisha or even Blake.Â

toodles!
