First off.. did anyone else know they were making Alvin and The Chipmunks?!?! WHAT KIND OF BLASPHEMY IS THIS!?!!?!! Ok, I love Alvin and The Chipmunks, and Jason Lee is hilariously funny, and YES, the preview looked decent... but... BUT!! Am I the only one who thinks cartoons should stay cartoons?? Is nothing sacred anymore?? By the way, yes, I'll have to see it.
It'll be coming out December 14th, so whoever's going with me, clear your schedule! and has anyone seen the extended version of the Army commercial they're playing now?? JEEZ! I always like seeing it on tv, cause I'm all about watching guys in uniform running around to awesome background music, but to see it in the theater? JEEZ.. the surround sound alone is almost enough to make me want to join the army.. you know, if I weren't the COMPLETE opposite of army material. I'd join if I had to, and I'm sure they'd take me if they had to, but I'm sure they wouldn't like it.
Moving on, the new Jodi Foster flick looks pretty sweet too.. I don't know much about it, just that I guess her boyfriend is murdered, and she goes after the people who did it, vigilante style, which I think we'd all love to try at least once. I think it's the same idea as the new Kevin Bacon movie, but I like J.F. better.
and last but not least... Balls of Fury. Now, the name alone is reason enough for me to see it, but Christopher Walken? Ping Pong? That chinese guy who's in everything, but I'll always refer to as 'Lo Pan', because Big Trouble in Little China is still one of my favorite movies EVER?!?!? .........sounds like it could make it on the 'greatest movie ever' list! I must see it.. if I died right now, without seeing Balls of Fury, I'm sure my soul would be damned to roam the earth for all eternity, haunting random people in theater restrooms, or something equally as lame. I honestly don't think that was half of the previews we saw, and the commercials... god the commercials.. although I did think it was pretty funny that in one of the ads for either for a doctor or dentist (I can't remember which) the guy totally looked like Glen Campbell... and I'm glad I was there with Rog, cause he's the only one who would have gotten it, AND find it funny. Ah well, I take every available opportunity to say 'Rhinestone Cowboy'. Guess you had to be there.
After the movie, we pretty much went about our usual routine... Make asses out of ourselves at the Burger King drive-thru, truck on over to Ritter Park to hang out at the picnic tables, and spend a few hours talking about life, while those feisty ritter park squirrels chuck acorns at us from the trees above. If they had better aim, maybe I'd be afraid.. it's like full-on acorn assault... but since they're so bad at it, I can't help but laugh at their poorly executed acorn tactics! HA! Take that, sniper squirrels!
ok, now I'm getting pretty sleepy.. so I have to tell you one more thing before I go.. and this is creepy.. so this morning I'm having some stupid dream about a gas station.. I was filling up my car when two guys came up to me and demanded my purse.. I just stared at them and hit the panic button on my keys.... so my car starts going nuts, they run off, and then the gas station owner came out.. I thought she came to help, but she was in on it too, then she put her arm around me and I woke up. it was her arm that woke me up.. which is totally strange, like I actually felt it, and I even remember thinking to myself how weird that was.
So I look at the clock, 6:30am.. and while I was laying there, I heard the tv in the living room.. sounded like commercials and stuff, cause it got louder all of a sudden. I laid there for a minute, then I started to get pissed cause I thought my mom was still awake, and she knows I can't sleep when the tv's blasting. So I sit up, look in my mirror (which is the only way I can see down the hallway from my bed), and there are no lights, but I still hear the tv. So then I decide that my dad must have gotten up in the middle of the night, cause he couldn't sleep, and then fell asleep with the tv on. I figure I better go put a blanket on him, and turn the freakin tv off... so as I'm trudging down the hallway, the noise fades out, and by the time I make it to the living room...... NOTHING. No mom, no dad, NO TV... so I'm just standing there in the dark like a fool (we have heavy curtains in that room, so it was still pitch black, even though it was starting to get light outside), and I was afraid to move cause I couldn't believe what was going on.
To top it off, my dog wasn't even with me.. so I haul ass back to my room to find her.. pick her up and stand in the hallway a good five minutes to see if she's gonna act funny, like somethings going on.. you know.. she was pretty frozen for a while, staring down the hallway like she saw something, and of course I was scared shitless.. cause it was scary... durr.. and then I guess she decided whatever was there was finally gone, cause she put her head on my shoulder and went back to sleep. I figured by that point that it was safe to move, and she was snoring before I even made it back to my bed. Needless to say, it took me forever to fall back asleep. the dream after that was pretty stupid.. all I remember was the part about installing a stripper pole in my house, which if you know me at all, is the dumbest thing ever..
Kari + a stripper pole = five or six minutes of fun, followed by possible broken bones, large hospital bills, and at least three nicknames I'd never be able to live down. somehow it just doesn't seem worth it.
goodnight all
