Some excellent movies this week...

I have finally, after literally years, talked my mom into watching Pitch Black and Interview with a Vampire with me. Both of them are among my all-time favorites, and she liked both of them, I am happy to say. I needed some cheering up and what better way to do that than watching some excellent movies?

This evening, I was flipping channels here at work and found Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets; it's on now in the background. I haven't seen any of the older HP movies in some time, so it's a shock to see all the characters so young. I've been meaning to restart the books again, and I'll have to remember to pick up Sorceror's Stone and do so one of these days. I cannot wait for the Half Blood Prince's movie to come out. Definitely looking forward to that; I hope it is as good as the Order's movie was. I was impressed with how well OotP was done.

My sister never got a chance to see any of the Bourne movies, so we saw Borne Identity earlier this week, and will be watching Borne Supremacy soon. I enjoy that group of movies a lot - very good, in my opinion. I think they are well done. I still haven't gotten a chance to see the newest one, but we'll get to that one soon enough.

Other than movies, not much of anything has been going on this week. Nothing new; nothing exciting. I am feeling better now, though - back to my old self.

I do need to get back into walking. I neglected that a bit this past week. I have been so excited about me losing this weight, but I know that I need to keep up with what I've been doing, or it will all come right back on. I have been doing good with the portion sizes and watching my soda, which is super hard since I love my soda so much. But I've been craving Green Tea and Orange Juice a lot recently, so I've been drinking that. Milk, too. For some reason I've been drinking a lot of milk.

I'm going to be looking into taking a class or two at CSN this next semester, and I've signed up for an institute class already. The institute class starts Thursday the 22nd, so I'm looking forward to that. Hopefully it'll be a way to meet some new people. I'm also going to be trying to find a veteranary office to volunteer there. I think that would be a good way to spend some of my time. One, I'd not be as bored all the time, and two, I'd be doing something that I really would like to do. It'll give me a way to spend my time constructively. I spend too much of my time just sitting around wishing I was out doing something and I really need to get up off my ass and actually do something about it.

My birthday is 10 days away. Very excited about that. The last few birthdays I've had have been mediocre at best, so I'm hoping this one makes up for it a bit. I am going to try and have a semi party at a bowling alley on the Saturday after my birthday. I am hoping a few certain people will show up, but I know not to get my hopes up in case they don't show, because I don't want to be dissapointed. I know, if nothing else, Marita and mom will be there. Jes should be there, too - hopefully it turns out well overall.

Work has been stressing me out a lot, but I've learned the hard way that I can't put my thoughts into words when it comes to work. Way too many curious eyes out there. I'll also be sure to only blog here from now on rather than on MySpace.

Nothing much else to comment on. I'll update again when there's something to update. Fare thee well, my little blog.
