GREAT MOVIE.

Just so everyone knows, the new Adam Sandler movie, "Click" is an excellent movie. I highly recommend it.

I like Adam Sandler, he's funny, and to be honest, I didn't want to see this movie just because I had guessed the entire plot (or so I thought) before, by viewing the previews. It looked kind of lame, with the usual Adam Sandler jokes. I just wanted to see something with more substance. But this movie, in my opinion, was his best movie ever.

I bawled my eyes out for twenty minutes (it takes a lot for me to cry watching a movie), and even Shane teared up at one point (please don't kill me for telling people!). I didn't realize Adam Sandler had this kind of acting in him, and I refuse to share what made me cry so much, but it was excellent. Amazing. One of the best movies I've seen in years, I'm not even exaggerating. It's worth the crazy high costs theatres charge, I plan on buying it when it comes out.

Anyhow, see it, and tell me what you think.

Ciao.

It's Been A While

It's been some time since I actually posted intelligent thought, I realize. I'll just catch up on a few key things.

Job

I officially finished the 2005-2006 school year at work almost two weeks ago. I'll be doing a summer program with the district that should be fun starting in July. I'll be tutoring kids Monday-Friday, with Friday comprising of 5 and a half hours of this program called TRAIL. I'll be doing that for four weeks and then I'll start work again in late August.

Family

My family is doing great, my brother is out here visiting for the summer, so it's been interesting.

Health

Probably the only horrible thing happening in my life right now. I can't afford my health insurance, hopefully when I start up with college, I'll have a better discount. I broke my big toe while camping, it doesn't hurt as much as it's uncomfortable and ugly. Also, this might be tmi for some people (if monthly cycles gross you out, skip down a topic), but I didn't have my cycle for five months straight and then it suddenly showed up, more painful than it has ever been. Since my painkiller prescription ran out, I'm chugging a bottle of advil constantly to dull some of it. I'm also having trouble swallowing food, when I do, I get a sharp pain in my back, just behind my esophagus.

Life (in general)

Is great. Shane and I are doing better than ever, we've been together for 18months now, and I feel closer to him than I've ever felt. We got the much-needed space (he now plays for a softball league and spends time with my guy friends and I have been doing more socially, with Crystal, Sona, whomever) that our relationship required, and we've adjusted to having our own bedrooms. It's great, really. I was afraid that I would miss having Shane to cuddle with at night, but my dog just smothers me instead.

Mine and Sona's website it moving along slowly, because someone is failing to give me more ideas on what to work on (that would be you, Sona).

My car hasn't had any real issues lately (except I still haven't recieved the check from the guy-who-hit-me's insurance company to repair the fender).

I'm feeling relatively healthy and my stress levels are low, which is always a good thing. My ulcer isn't bothering me too bad. There was one instance, where, at a family party I let shots of Jose Cuervo, Dr. McGillicuddy's, and Smirnoff get the best of me. I was fine that night, I didn't even get drunk, I was just really buzzed two separate times, tried to carry an inflatable mattress across a dew-slickened hill at 1am....that was interesting. I was fine that night, but was over a toilet in the morning. Serves me right. Oh well, at least I provided amusement for my extended family.

Ciao.

New

New Website

I'm still learning about html, forgive the mess.

A Somewhat-Stalker?!

Someone by the name of Cami (or Hannah, or Megan, or whatever other names she uses) has been, in her way, stalking Shane.

She added Shane to her msn messenger, then he blocked her. She got a new email and added him again, he blocked her. She's done this several times, over and over.

Today, while on technorati search, I decided to see who links to my blog. I found a few from Min and one from Leif, and one from Brian...then there was one I didn't recognize.

I'd list the blog address, but she already deleted it. I went there, and saw links to Shane's blog, as well as mine, when I have never met her or talked to her before.

I skimmed over her blog content and saw a lot of Shane adoration (Shane has never met this girl, and only spoken a handful of words to her). She referred to him as her best friend, took videos we made on myspace and posted them all, talked about him incessantly...it was very creepy. As I showed Shane each link, he became more and more annoyed and creeped out. Then, he told me that she was very stalker-like with him, and she told him firmly, "whoever your friends are, they are definitely mine too" before he blocked her.

Over the past few months, I've been having a lot of anonymous comments and comments from someone named Megan. I've discovered (through the wonderful world of tracking) that they were all from her, using different names.

I've learned that she's started linking a few of my friends as well, and possibly posting a lot of anonymous comments, harmless, but still creepy. She goes by Amber, Megan, Cami, Jess and Hannah, so keep your eye out.

I was getting annoyed with how creepy she was being (the whole puppy love/adoration for Shane was beyond being cute, it was very invasive, very disturbing), so I found her myspace (which, by the way, wasn't even her, it was her cousin's pictures, her words) and sent her an email. About an hour later, that myspace account was deleted, as is her blog. I've sent a few emails to her msn emails, but I've recieved no reply.

So, my blogger friends, if you're getting weird comments, ignore them, and I'm sorry if she's started reading your lives and making herself automatically a part of it.

Or stalk her back. Whatever.

Ciao

Photos

Sona came up last weekend, I've been busy with my monster bedroom to post pictures, but here they are!

Sona and Kyle, after her and I got back from buying the boys pizza.

Here we all are, Shane the only one who's neglecting the camera. Next to bloated me is my little brother Danny, here for the summer.

Random black and white of Sarah getting her mange on.

Sona with the hunk of cheese from the girls' pizza. She's takes the cheese off of her pizza before eating...I guess it's cause she's Iraqi...

Yeah, so I don't really need to post useless pictures, but this is our pizza, girls' on the left, boys' on the right...extra sauce and green peppers vs. meat lovers...the grease makes me laugh.

Of course something was bound to go wrong while she was visiting, and this time it was her car....

We're leaving the pizza place, and a guy runs up to the car as we were about to pull out and bangs on the passenger window. I was sitting there, so, naturally I jumped out of my pants, wondering what it was for, when he pointed to Sona's tire. It was a fun ride home, that's for sure.

It took a little too long to jack the car up, we ended up calling Crystal and Tristian to help...

My brother tries to help Kyle.

Finally, we figure it out to get it jacked up enough to put the temp tire on....

We now realize that we don't have the right tool to take off the lug nuts, and Sona's parked just so she's blocking both of our cars in the driveway. We figure it out eventually, get the tire on and head to Wal-mart.

Brand-Spanking new outfits, how cute is it?

So happy, it's creepy...

Meanwhile, my jeans were soaked in all the rain (yes, I know, my toes are spread far apart...),

And I played on the railroad tracks for a while,

And someone placed my stuffed animals in a peculiar position.

Ciao.
