No, I am not going to talk about household chores...again. I have gotten very behind in some things that I've had on my back burner for some time now. I am very tired, and I needed a short entry for tonight. Thus, you're getting this hodgepodge of topics all bundled into one. I'm sorry, but I'm pregnant. (That is one really good thing about pregnancy. It is a great excuse for all sorts of slacker-tendencies.) First of all, I was given the Art de Pico award by two of my blogging friends, natural paths and 4sweetums an embarrassingly long time ago.
It is for "those who nourish and enrich the spirit of creativity" and procrastinate about posting their generously given awards. Just kidding on that last part, but I do feel very undeserving. Thank you very much, my fellow bloggers! It is a very great honor! Secondly, I have seen two movies in the last month or so that I have failed to review. Actually, I wrote up a very long-winded double feature on both of them late one night, back before we started school, and I was still staying up until 2am sometimes. I hit the "add new entry" button, and POOF!...it was gone. I cried a river. slapped my computer around, cursed my internet connection, and then went to bed. So, while I'm not going to be rewriting those reviews, I will briefly tell you about my movie-going experiences with each...
Basically, Big D and I went to see this as movie rubberneckers. With all the hype over the death and talked-about performance of Heath Ledger, we quickly rented the original in this series, Batman Begins, and then went to see this one. Basically, I'm not going to add anything new to all that the media and all of your friends and family have already told you. It was a very tense movie, and all of the performances were better than average. Heath Ledger was nothing less than mesmerizing, but I'm convinced that he was playing the role of Satan instead of merely the Joker, so it was very disturbing as well. My only warning is that it felt more like an R, rather than a PG-13 to me.
I went to see this with the kids and Indiana Mimi. It was another really exciting flick with lots of gasps and thrills. Yet, the plot was pretty predictable and over-the-top. The 3-D effects were really well done, but be careful. In our local paper it states that there is a surcharge for the 3D performances. Well, it was like $3 per ticket. I nearly fainted when they told me my total was $36 for matinee tickets for two kids, one senior and one adult. I think that I have covered everything that I wanted to tell you. However, there's a great possibility that I'm still forgetting something. After all, I'm pregnant. |
