Went to see The Matrix Reloaded with a coupla friends. I've never been a huge Keanu Reeves fan but Neo can stop in for tea and cookies any time. Um, yeah, so three hours of Neo gets me smiling.
Keanu Reeves.....hubba, hubba.....
Did littlek send along my hugs, Terry?
Hugs? I missed hugs? Ooooooh, she's in trouble.
Ughogh, my ex-man, I suppose, came to our party tonight, where we had the honor to host Terry DO and Quinn as well. He came with a new woman. To my dismay, she was neither stunning and stupid, nor clever and ugly, none combination that i would hate. she was simply normal and very very nice. amiable creature. what did made me smile though was that my beautiful welder finally normalized his ways towards me and we actually hung out quite a bit. oh sigh. i did catch his eye not once, not twice, but quite a few times. i am very happy with my old man and i can tell he really likes his new girl, but our secret looks warmed my heart. i hope it's not sinfull or anything, it was just.. nice.
Oh Dagglepuss! No love like lost love!
I am smiling for a far more pedestrian, Sunday night (as it is here) sort of reason.
I went for my hour's walk a couple of hours ago. My beautiful Magritte sky brolly has been damaged in a strong sea wind, so I went out into the darkly clouded day sans shelter - and no drop of rain fell!
Now, it is raining and winding and generally being wild and woolly - which is a lovely thing to look out on from my warm, high windows - where I can see the trees tossing and the black clouds racing and the rain falling all crooked from the wind - such a lovely Sunday night - which is a cocooning night for me.
And tomorrow? Work? NO! 'Tis a public holiday!!!!!
I want to be some place wild and woolly! and breezy with the sea wind. sounds lovely. my roommate, the third one is graduating today, ironing the big red hooded coat thingy. she's been trying the silly hat with tassle on for a week now, haha. and then poof, i go my way, she goes her crazy way (to texas), and three years of housemateship are done. should be a great day today though...
Two smiles to report. Okay, one smile and one moment of maniacal laughter:
First, absolutely stunning weather for my last day of vacation and for Dag's roomie's graduation day.... (Best wishes, L)
Second, (
) the signature.....has "you know who" seen it yet?

That's cool, we went to see the Matrix Re as well tonight. Synchronicity.
The action scenes were breathtaking. That car race! But the 'narrative' part of the movie I thought was very weak. Bit boring, cheesy at times even. Liked 'part 1' a lot better!
(But I guess, if you're F, and it's Keaunu, who cares about his
narrative parts, huh? ;-)
So long as his narrative parts are all in the right places and he knows what to do with them.....
(California stars is breaking me heart. That's me home, down there in the granite and firry mountains...)
LMAO! So I've got a new smile already. I was sitting at my desk, which is all the way at the back of my apartment, when I heard this horrendous noise at the front of the house. I walked into the living room to find my cat, Murray, the little one, freaking out. It's like he was trying to claw his way through the (closed) front window. So I walked into the front hallway to find out what was on the porch. My upstairs neighbor's cat, Guinness, was just sitting there waiting to be let in. The poor little guy was terrified and took off. He's probably hiding UNDER the front porch now. Sheesh, Murray can be such a brute for such a little fuzzball. Anyhow, I think his fur's still standing on end....that always cracks me up.
Late entry for yesterday
I went for a long walk along Brushneck Cove near my house. It was low tide and there were dozens of snowy white wading birds (egrets, I think)
in the shallow water of the cove, fishing for their breakfast.
It was very peaceful and quiet. The sun was shining. A few unfortunates drove past me on their way to work or some other of life's obligations.
I relished the thought of taking out my new kayak later.
Second smile
Several hours later and several miles away. I took my kayak on our maiden voyage together. we circumnavigated a little (about two square miles) inland lake. gently gliding close up to swans and ducks and surprising a little sun turtle who was warming himself on a rock.
He leaped into the water with a splash when I got too close for comfort.
(yesterday) (since we're on animals) running the dogs in the high grass at marymoor -- grass higher than their heads so they running with a bucking motion to see over the top of it. tail pops up, head pops up, tail pops up, head pops up -- and so on. (put the poison on them the day before so they could run through without appreciable risk of infestation, man doing battle with nature, yech...)
eew ticks.
My neice totally cracked me up yesterday. She is in a compliment stage. She says, I like your tattoo, I like your shirt, I like your skin (funny that one). Yesterday, she said (she's also in a brest fixation phase), "I like your nipple suit" HAHA! She was talking about my tank top.

Nice description!

Funny story about your niece.
I used to tease/compliment one of my niece's with a silly name. I would tell her that because I liked her so much she was really my 'nice'.
New picture of my nephew ... and err, a few of his friends.

3 things, deb sent me a hillarious conversation I had on abuzz once.
Setanta is posting again.
And the server only had to be rebooted once. :-)
Executive meeting this afternoon (just like every other Tuesday). We have a new thing where every time we make a negative comment outside of one of our "safe zones" we have to put a quarter in the bucket. We're working on serious morale issues in the store caused by the economy and its effects. We all just kept going off and throwing money in the bucket. It was a blast! Our new favorite line in the store is "Anybody got a quarter?" In only a week, we've raised ten dollars for this year's holiday party.
