TV commentary:
Family Guy: I'm kinda amused they outright say in the opening scroll that they ran out of ideas when they made the last one, particularly since there's definitely an overly long "filler type" scene that seemed to serve no purpose other than to add a couple of minutes to the run time. Still, I enjoyed it well enough. But of course, I'm easily amused.
Anyways, back in the ATL. Just glad the ice and snow started to melt. Here's some pics of the snow that I just noticed I had left over on my phone and hadn't uploaded to FB:
( under a cut )
Since I was snowed in, just spent the week in NYC being all lazy and watching the telly. (Okay, that's a lie, I woulda been doing that even if it hadn't snowed so much). Movies I got to see that I hadn't seen yet: Black Dynamite, Bangkok Dangerous, Twilight. Black Dynamite was amusing enough but not great, and Bangkok Dangerous was kinda boring. Twilight is as expected.
Actually, you know what bugs me in some of these vampire stories? Where some chick falls for some brooding vamp guy, and she wants to be turned, and he's all, "Oh, the life of a vampire is so horrible!" Oh yeah, being eternally young with super powers, that's awful. And they're all, you'll be a monster! But they seem to be getting along fine. And often times have several friends and family members who seems to be handling things just fine also! So basically the guy is saying he is so great because he's feels only he is strong enough to suffer through this "curse", but the person wanting to be turned is too weak to handle it like they can? Talk about a cocky cock! Also, why the hell would you want your lover to grow all old while you stay young and beautiful? That just seems cruel and stupid.
Heh, New Year's,
isabel79 did some Keane songs (as well as a Gwen Stefani song written by one of those dudes) on
sparkyboy's copy of Singstar, and they sounded pretty cool. But she didn't actually have them on her! And me brudder's computer is fried currently, so I couldn't get them off his hard drive either. So, I had to get them today myself. And to answer
isabel79, I was indeed keen on them, ha!
Flying back down to Atlanta today, on the line to drop off my bag (speaking of which, who doesn't check in online nowadays, particularly since you can just walk straight to the counter and drop off your bags after checking in online now?) saw this girl a few people ahead of me that was possibly "Sara" (the "Sara" in this story, whose name isn't actually Sara, but you know how I use made up names for people when I talk about them on here). She actually ended up a few seats ahead of me in the flight to Atlanta, and I resolved to ask her if she was her. I didn't want to do that in the middle of the full flight, so I figured I'd try at baggage claim. But alas, she wasn't there. Guess I'll never know if it was really her.
Of course, if it actually was her, not sure what there would be to say other than, "Oh hey, we went to HS together!" followed by the usual shoot the bull questions, assuming she actually remembered who the hell I was. And then there'd be the temptation to be all, "You not hanging out anymore at school after I went to Engineering camp. What's up with that?!" So its just as well, seeing how those convos with Michelle and Becca went after I finally got a chance to talk with them after all these years.
