Lonnie and I watched a movie called Smiley Face last night. Actually, we started the movie around 2:00AM, so it was this morning. Anyway, the reason I’m bothering to write about it is because it’s freaking HYSTERICAL!   

Here’s a tiny quote about the movie that I found online:

A young actress (Anna Faris) and hopeless pothead inadvertently ingests her roommate’s pot-laced cupcakes, and then attempts to manage her day as it goes awry through a series of misadventures.

The site of this car,

which I spotted across town, 

instantly angers me:

• I hate the “Herbie The Love Bug” movies.
• People who insist on doing cutsie stuff with their cars annoy me to no end.
• I don’t like VW Beetles to start with. Add the Herbie crap, and it’s doomed.
• No matter how hard I try, I cannot escape this stupid car. The movie has been made in 1969, 1974, 1977, 1980, 1997, & 2005.
• As if the movie itself isn’t annoying enough, they just had to cast Lindsay Lohan in it, didn’t they?
• All in all, it’s safe to say that Herbie The Love Bug is not only a waste of time and film, but also created a bunch of nimrods who feel the need to convert their car to look like the one from the movie.

GET A LIFE, PEOPLE!

• Sorry it’s been a few days since I’ve pumped out any Random Randomness©. I’ve either been busy or just simply feeling like crap lately. I feel pretty good today, though, and am not too busy to post something.

• I went to Physical Therapy for my neck/back injury for the first time yesterday. Ouch. The therapist didn’t hardly even do anything, but I’m still feeling it. No pain, no gain, though, so I am doing my best to be tough about it.

• My daughter spent the night at her friend’s house last night. Her friend lives back in Oregon, so it’s such a pain in the keister having to take her over there. It’s about an hour drive…but it’s worth it knowing how happy it makes her.

• I’m making cheese filled Tortellini for dinner tonight. I’ve never made it before, but I’m assuming it’ll be pretty good. I’m hoping so, anyway. I think I’ll use an Alfredo sauce on ‘em. I’m not sure what people usually use, but that’s what I’m going for.

• I’m wearing my angel earrings today. They’re so cute…and since I’m somewhat superstitious, I consider them to be a good luck charm.

• I’m also wearing my super cozy fleece socks today! I love these things. My tootsies stay so nice and warm.

• I’m currently listening to “Ænima” by Tool. I’m not too into it for some reason…but it’s better than silence.

• Lonnie and I watched “The Invasion” last night. While I generally cannot stand Nicole Kidman, the movie was fairly decent. Not the best I’ve ever seen, but also not the piece of crap we watched the other night. I give it one thumb up and one thumb to the side. Whatever that means.

• I bought some new creamer last night. It’s from the fine folks over at International Delight. The flavor I got is Hershey’s Chocolate & Caramel. WOW! That stuff is SO good! I love it!

• We’re going to have to leave to pick my daughter up pretty soon, so I’m going to need to wrap this up in just a couple minutes. I don’t have my make-up on, and the last thing I want to do is embarrass my daughter by showing up looking like doody!

• Lonnie just turned the air conditioner on. I’m already so cold! I wish we were on the same internal thermostat!

• I had a nice talk with my Mom earlier. I felt a lot of tension between us lately, so I went into her bedroom and asked if we could have a talk. We did and things seem a lot less tense now. I’m glad I got up the guts to go do that. I hate feeling tension.

• I need to mow the lawn some time this weekend. It’s not disgustingly long or anything, but it at least needs a good trim.

• I need to get my kids new winter coats before it gets too cold. I have no idea where I’m going to get the money to get them, but I’ll have to figure it out. They need to have warm coats!

• I guess I’d better go put my make-up on and get ready to pick my daughter up now. I will do my best to post some more either later tonight or tomorrow! Thank you to all of my loyal readers who keep checking back. It means so much to me that you’re all sticking with me by reading my blog on a regular basis! You guys are the best! :big hugs:

• Sorry it’s been so long since I last posted. The whole back-to-school thing made me fall behind on everything. Thank goodness it’s all done and over with.

• I’m drinking Mocha Java coffee with Hazelnut creamer. It’s SO good!

• Lonnie just yelled at his computer. When he does that, he reminds me of my Dad. When I was a kid, I always knew that if I heard yelling coming from the garage, I needed to stay away. My Dad’s the most gentle person I know, but when he’s working on a car and something goes wrong…WHEW! Look out!

• I need to put my make-up on. I shall return…

• Okay, I’m back and looking a little better than I was ten minutes ago. I hate looking icky. I guess I’m shallow or something. I just don’t like feeling like I could look better than I do. My outlook seems to be better when I look half way decent. Is that shallow, or is that kind of normal?

• Speaking of human behavior, my son is taking Psychology in school. The first day of the new school year was yesterday. He came home and said that he thinks he’s really going to like his Psychology class. I wish they offered badass classes like that to me when I was in school. Maybe I wouldn’t have hated it as much as I did.

• Nah - I still would have hated it!

• I think I’m going to bake some cupcakes today. It’s been a while since I’ve baked anything, and I like to bake stuff for the kids so they have tasty treats when they get home from school. My kids’ friends always appreciate that, too.

• I’m in a pretty good mood today. Yay! Much better than yesterday. I was totally bummed out for some reason. I’m sure it has something to do with my kids leaving to go to school. I know I’ve said it like 2398473 times before, but I miss them SO much when they’re gone.

• I’m going to go make a cup of coffee for Lonnie.

• He appreciated that! I love doing stuff for him and the kids. It truly makes me happy.

• Lonnie’s friend, Chad and his wife, Becky are going to be coming over any minute. Becky is a photographer, and she wants to talk business with Lonnie. I’m not sure if she just needs business advice or what, but it’ll be nice to see them again. They’re super nice people…and very personable.

• I want to mow the lawn today, but I think it’s too soon. I’m trying to only do it once per week, but when it starts looking just a tad too long, I have to go out there and mow it down. I guess it’s the OCD.

• I’ve decided I’m never going to drink alcohol again. It honestly does nothing for me anymore. I never thought I’d say that, but it’s true. I just don’t enjoy it…and I shouldn’t be drinking it, anyway.

• My daughter is 5′ tall and weighs only 65 lbs.. I’m not sure what made me think about that, but when I really stop and think about it, that’s amazingly tiny. I hope people don’t ever think we don’t feed her enough. She literally eats more than I do. I’d pretty much do anything to  have her metabolism!

• We watched “Grindhouse” the other night. I didn’t even want to watch it, but I did and ended up liking it a lot! Quentin Tarantino drives me absolutely nuts. I can’t stand the guy…and normally don’t like his movies, either. There are a few exceptions…”Grindhouse” is one of them.

• I think Lonnie’s addicted to white boards.

• Okay, I gotta go work on a website now. Sorry again for not posting for a few days. I’ll do my best not to let it happen again.
