Pinball! It's all the rage!

I am scarred for life.....no seriously...scarred. Forget Mr. Grey Spaceman and Chip the black boy. I think this is extreame fetal position in the corner crying fuel. What is this terror and horror....none other than The Who's Tommy.

Ok....first of all.....it was on the Free OnDemand movies....so it was free....second......it is not my fault...here's how it went down...

Val: Let's see what free movies there are on Demand
Dan: Ok cool
Val: Hey look! The lady Vanishes. Wanna see that?
Dan: Maybe. Hey look there's the Birdcage
Val: Ohhh maybe.....
Dan: Hey! Tommy!
Val: Cool!
Dan: Let's watch that.

Ok...so it wasn't COMPLETELY Dan's fault but I'm gonna blame him anyway. Keep in mind this is the same man who keeps trying to get me to watch Van Helsing. Kate Beckinsale....leather.....not my thing......pervs....

What has now transpired for the past...oh hour and a half (and there is still like another 30 minutes left to watch) is two people shivering in the corner just going....."This makes no sense!" "Does this make sense to you cause it makes no sense to me!" Although I have also come to realize what I would love to do....I would love to do commentary for bad movies. Not for any reason just because i find it funny. I mean come on.......The Who singing, Elton John...singing....with big boots....and a beenie that looked like someone's mom knitted it, Ann-margret just pretty much speaking the lyrics (I swear she was like a sexy William Shatner...if Shatner had gotten the breathless thing down....he would have been GOD) and to top it all off.....Jack Nicholson singing.......I mean come on...I know he wrote "Head" but did he have to sing? At least I'm convinced he's singing. We're not sure. But I say yes. All that's missing is David Bowie bursting through the walls and looking around and jump back out again. But from a different wall. He needs to make two holes in the wall. LOL It's bad enough sober can you imagine if you had gone to see this in the movie theather? STONED?? I actually have taken brain cells and tried to make sense of the movie.....I got a headache....

::shudder::.....again.........

I'm gonna go watch Harold and Kumar...at least that makes sense....

And just because I'm a kind soul........SNAKES ON A PLANE!

So what have we learned today?

So today my best friend came down for one last visit before she abandons me and leaves for North Carolina (Just kidding I know you're not abandoning me, I just like to lay the italian guilt trip on thick sometimes). I really am gonna miss her so so much but we had our one day together before she left. Just the two of us..being girly. And we FINALLY went bridal dress shopping. Actually we went bridal dress shopping after a humongo lunch (excellent by the way), good friend talk and of course a trip to barnes and noble. And we ended up going maid of honor shopping and bridesmaids dress shopping. lol

Here's what we learned:
* Polka dots.......NOT good when lined up next to one another
* One of our friends...still crazy
* Her boyfriend....still psychotic
* B&N....LOVES to make you stick around for 45 minutes and then not tell you why. lol (j/k Luv ya Laurie)
* It is IMPOSSIBLE to find a nice simple bridesmaids dress that's not overpriced and rewearable
* I don't want my bridesmaids looking like the Paris Hiltons of tommorow...or mermaids with their asses hanging out.
* Bri....three hours later and we were STILL giggling over the joke about my bracelet.
* Lettuce green is my new obsession.

What else have we learned? Well that I can show you in slideshow form...yea!!
