Papa-Oom-Mow-Mow, Papa-Oom-MowMow

Lazy Friday night for me. 

Cooked some dinnerz and watched some cool stuffz.

Watched this movie:

Very interesting flick.  Been wanting to watch it since it came out in theaters, and I fiiiiiiinally did! It was a very strange movie, but I enjoyed it. It was interesting to see how they worked everything after Heath Ledger's death. The addition of the 3 other actors actually worked really well into the story. Needless to say, it was a feast for the eyes.....as is the show that I spent the rest of the night watching:

I've seen several episodes, but I haven't yet watched it in it's entirety (from the beginning). It's great! So cute. Lots of rich and bright colors and fantastic set designs. Also lots of delicious pies :) I still can't believe I talked to....or....errr...attempted to talk to Lee Pace. Such. a. cute. fella. Which is the exact reason that I couldn't find anything in my mind to talk to him about. Which is why I am a huge, shy loser.  Another great work of his (well not really OF HIS but he is IN IT) is the movie, The Fall....definitely a must check out if you get a chance. Sorta, pretty weird and very visually pleasing.

This is what you call a seriously cool movie (Well, if you're me, at least).

I just love truly artistic movies/television that unfold like a painting before your eyes. It gives just a small glimmer of hope in this age of re-makes and sequels!

5 days until more fun-time! Snice. (haha we used to say that in high school all the time...i'm not sure why my fingers just typed it)

Give Up What You Think You Have To Say

So.

I'm getting really pumped to go see Further next week! I really wish that I could send the 5-year younger version of myself, but this version will just have to do! It's gonna be LEGEN....wait for it....

I don't really have much to talk about tonight...work was extremely boring.
My back has been hurting me the past couple of days...no good. I'm such an old woman!

Thankfully I'm not this old...

 

But, apparently, I look like I'm seventeen. Awesome. 

Well, this seventeen year old needs some beauty sleep!

So g'night, all!

It's Temporary, This Place I'm in......

I figured that I would get in a late late night blog since I didn't blog at all yesterday! 

I just got back from seeing Band of Horses in New Orleans and it was, once again, phenomenal! I love when a band is consistent in being awesome on both recordings and live performances. I saw them a few years ago and it was beautiful, and hearing all of the songs from their newest album tonight was exciting and delightful to my ears! I also love when you can tell that a band really just wants to make sure that you enjoy yourself and have just the funnest time...it really is nice and always makes the experience so much more fun for me.

Song I was most in awe of tonight: Infinite Arms (gah! so freakin good...they jammed that sucker OUT and I loved it!)

Most nostalgic: No One's Gonna Love You (always nostalgic, but always beautiful)

Most fun: Islands on the Coast (fun jam)

Another favorite of the night: Factory (I thought about you and a candy bar)

Favorite encore: Tie between Evening Kitchen (nice and quiet...perfect) and The Funeral (always a good rock out jam)

Ok I'll stop now....I think you understand how awesome it was. That dude's voice just amazes me!

Anywayyssss....I love little quick trips to New Orleans! They are always so funnn! Got to eat lots of yummy yummy yummy food! Theo's (pizza), Stein's Deli, and Juan's Flying Burrito! Mmmmmm. Fooooooddd! Always a fun time in Nola. 

Yes two great shows in two weeks! One down, one to go...Further Seems Forever here I cooommmee!!

"It's coming down outside like I've never even seen before

I fell into some kind of sorry state
But looking back now I think it's finally time for me to laugh about it
Get my things together and find something to say"

Hm.

I'm not really sure what to write about tonight.

I have been having a lot of things swirling around in my head the past couple of days, but I know that it will not come out how I really mean it to on here.

I think I am a little afraid to go forward with my life. I know that I can't do it on my own. Life changes just scare me.

Sorry...I am sort of befuddled.

Like I said, I don't really know what to write.

I kinda feel like this...

Anyway...I guess until I can better express my thoughts....

Let's Take These Lines and Draw Ourselves Out of Here

 

By: Sherri Dupree Bemis

Well...my crazy-party-fun-weekend is over now :( 

Oh well. Just a day and a half of work then I get to go hang out in NoLa for a couple of days!

And receive sound waves emitted by Band of Horses. Mmmmmm. 

I wish that people wanted to experiment on my brain...and they let me live in a cool room and paid me so that they could perform these experiments...and all I had to do was just constantly do things...like read and write and watch and listen and draw and paint and exercise and do crossword puzzles. 

I would totally be that guinea pig. 

I'm kind of glad to be going back to work tomorrow. Hm. That's weird. Definitely a first.  On Thursday all I did was put things back in order that were out of order (extremely out of order!) and I really enjoyed myself. 

This blog is going to be developed from spurts coming out of my brain, through my fingers, and onto the screen. Just so you know. It may not contain much continuity.

I think Ashleigh and I are going to watch Tangled tonight! Yipee! Really enjoy that flick. For sure. I always enjoy a fairy tale adaptation, but I must say that I am quite worried about the many that will be coming out in the next couple of years. I hope at least some of them are decent. Oh.. that reminds me that I need to buy the new book from the lady who wrote Beastly! Yes! I must satiate my modern pre-teen fairy tale adaptation thirst! I think it's called Cloaked. I hope they make a movie out of it and Vanessa Hudgens stars in it....or Kristen Stewart. Brilliant actresses, those two.

I want to go to England!

I don't know if we are gonna get to go to the Wizarding World of HP again, but I sure am craving me some chocolate frogs and peppermint toads! I wish there was a way you could just go to the gift shop and rack up without having to go into the park. That would be awesome. I definitely need to try a Cauldron Cake next time.

My hair kind of smells like candy. 

The end.

MM.

RUH ROH!

 

Ok so this picture definitely doesn't show the complete brightness of  my new red hair (and it is VERY bright), but I love it! I am so blessed to have the very BEST friend/cuzzy-in-law/hairdresser in the whole wide world! She is the bestest!

Ok...this is better to see the color! Sorry...I'm excited about my new superhero hair!

 

See?

Ok...not much goin on! Peace out for now!
