June 1, 2013


Today at work I started watching Reaper again, I read a couple more chapters in my book, finished the letter to my friend, and I added almost two letters to my cross stitch. A fairly productive day I would say. Nothing else really to report about work.

When I got home I had dinner and started watching movies. I started with Lockout, which is a funny action movie that I enjoyed when it was in theaters and I found out that I still enjoy it. I can't remember how well it did, and don't care to look it up, but it has to rank up there with my favorite sci-fi action movies. My favorite part is still when Guy Pearce's character tells the President's daughter she is adopted. It is hilarious every time.

Next I watched Hit And Run with Dax Shepard, Kristen Bell, Tom Arnold, and Bradley Cooper. It is more straight-up comedy with action mixed in. The car chases are kind of pointless because they're just driving really fast and instead of a chase it just feels like they are playing Follow The Leader. I don't know if that makes any sense but whatever. It is a good movie and the comedy is top-notch.

I took a break somewhere in there and went to Dairy Queen. It was the first frozen hot chocolate I have had in a really long time. I am happy to report they are just as delicious and guilt-inducing as always.

The last movie of the night was Captain America. I saw most of it when it was in theaters but never got around to seeing the whole thing. It was better than I thought it would be and it made a lot more sense seeing it all the way through, not just in bits and pieces. I think tomorrow I may watch Thor, another movie I saw the majority of but never the whole thing all the way through. Then maybe I'll go and rent The Avengers. Maybe. Probably not. But there is a chance I will feel the urge to get out of the house.

Throughout my movie watching, I continued work on my cross stitch. I managed to finish all the letters and got halfway through the outline of the dinosaur. Hopefully tomorrow I can finish the entire dinosaur. That would be freaking sweet. I've already started work on the next pattern I want to make. For the dinosaur one I actually had to come up with the dinosaur, based on pictures of other cross stitch dinosaurs and clip art dinosaurs. The next cross stitch I want to make just consists of words so I am just copying it, stitch-for-stitch, from the picture I found. Which is a little difficult because it is at an angle and kind of small, but still manageable.

Anyway, now it is definitely time for bed. I am up way past my bedtime.
