After all, it's the chasing after him I really love.

Bill Maher: You know, Scientologists...
[sound of audience laughing]
Bill Maher: And right, you're like, "Oh, yeah, that's some crazy shit. Okay." Jesus with the virgin birth and the dove and the snake who talked in the garden, that's cool. But the Scientologists, they're the crazy ones.

I love watching Religulous. It makes me laugh at how stupid these stories are. I see it as a fairytale. I need good solid proof to believe any of it.

Prior to this week, Paige's favorite movies were Big Fish, Stardust, and anything with Ryan Reynolds (she say's he's her boyfriend). As Big Fish and Stardust are on my favorite list as well, I was proud. Any Ryan Reynold's ain't too bad.

This week, I added Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief to that list. I put it on for her, saying I thought she was going to like it. This is after I had sampled it, and knew which parts miiiight bug her. As every monster came up, I asked her if it was too scary, and if she wanted me to turn it off. Leila, my two year old, was a little upset by the Fury in the beginning, but other than that both of them watched the whole movie with wide eyed wonder. Every time I asked if they wanted me to turn it off, Leila wouldn't even answer, and Paige would turn to me and say "no, Mommy, I really love this movie..."

When it was over, though, Leila walked up to me with Monsters vs. Aliens and asked "Mommy, can we watch nice monsters now?" Lol.

But yeah. Paige keeps asking for Percy. I know what someone is getting for her birthday... Further proof that Paige is the coolest almost-five-year-old in the world.

The first poster for Warner Bros. Pictures’ YOGI BEAR has been revealed. Arriving in theaters on December 17th, this film stars Tom Cavanagh, Anna Faris, Dan Aykroyd, Justin Timberlake and Andy Daly.

Synopsis:
Everyone’s favorite pic-a-nic basket-stealing bear comes to the big screen in “Yogi Bear.” Jellystone Park has been losing business, so greedy Mayor Brown decides to shut it down and sell the land. That means families will no longer be able to experience the natural beauty of the outdoors — and, even worse, Yogi and Boo Boo will be tossed out of the only home they’ve ever known. Faced with his biggest challenge ever, Yogi must prove that he really is “smarter than the average bear” as he and Boo Boo join forces with their old nemesis Ranger Smith to find a way to save Jellystone Park from closing forever.

BIG SIGH

The closer we get to being out of here, the more drama comes around. I don't understand why my father is so fucking retarded.

Anyway

This weekend I watched Lilly and helped out over at the Drake house. To be honest, though, it wasn't much helping. I did a little bit of sweeping and watched them do most the work and still took home some things. A nice wooden box, a pencil sharpener (the old fashioned kind...except that it's like a giant smiley face. I thought it was a fishing reel at first.)

Watched a couple of movies that I thought were pretty good...The Book of Eli and Pirate Radio.. I also watched the Crazies and 9. For some reason I really didn't like 9 and I'm not sure why. I watched Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs again, which I always thoroughly enjoy.

Today my sister and dad got in a squabble over the gas in the lawnmower can. I dunno what really happened, only that we are getting two different stories and most likely it's dad that is lying. He upset her by yelling at her, and he claims she was just having a nic fit. Also found out that my dad traded a Perkoset for a bowl, and that he may have been sneaking down here to get into my stuff all last week.

This week I get paid, which I really hope works out in my favor if I can get my check on Wednesday rather than Friday. I only have around 50 cents in my account and I really hope they don't come up with some unexpected shitty fee just to slam me and get that money and send me into an overdraft. But they are assholes down at the Chase bank, so who fucking knows.

It is goddamn hot out here. I'm in New Carlisle to help Twitch and his family finish up the Drake house. I am still unsure how it's going to get done. They just need some repairs done in the house and the entire garage still needs a going-through. It feels awful out here and it's set to be in 100's. As I've bitched, whined and moaned before there is no air conditioning up here. Woe, I am dressed pretty white-trash like but I don't give a fuck at this point. A pair of shorts and a Sesame Street wife beater is good enough for me.

Some relatives are unable to watch the kids so I was designated that task at the main house. Twitch and his parents are over on Drake, I believe they took Gabe to his friend's house and Lilly is here with me watching Burton's Alice in Wonderland, which I seem to like a little more each time I see it. (My first viewing I was incredibly disappointed.)

I watched the Book of Eli last night, and while it seemed like it was a pretty good movie- it was almost entirely too predictable. I didn't know anything about the movie going into it, which I think is extremely useful at times because the internet has spoiled me to where I'll pretty much know everything there is about a movie I want to see. The Book of Eli was under my radar though, and I thought it was going to be some awful movie about religion in the streets.

I guess I was kinda half right. It was a cool movie, though.

There are fleas here. Not as bad as when Milhouse died, but I guess it's from that awful mean cat they just handed over to a friend (because chewed some wires on the Wii set up.) There are not many, just one or two that will occasionally say hello. The kid is acting weird....I don't understand five year olds or their knock-knock jokes.

It's sticky, and I'm going to continue to bitch about the heat, so I'll probably just end this now.

Hot Tub Time Machine looks much better in 720. It was so grainy the last time I watched it. >_>
