Sunday, I did laundry, and cleaned some stuff up. I got some sleep, and ate before work, which went well. I rented the final episodes of Friends, Fantastic 4, and another flick... The end of friends made me cry a bit, but I'm not sure why, as it really wasn't anything special; I'm guessing the actors & writers were really exhausted or something, because it just didn't have that 'oomph' that I expected from a finale. Fantastic 4 was ok; it wasn't X-Men, but it wasn't Daredevil/Hulk either.

I got the car from Mark around 2pm yesterday, then I went out in search of film for Mark's camera & black & white film for mine. I used to be able to find black & white film anywhere, but lately, not so much. I found film for Mark's camera, stopped by common language to look for posters (they didn't have any), and then I went home, because I felt kind of tired, and figured I could just order film from online. I read the new Entertainment Weekly, with Brokeback Mountain on the cover. Mollie called me back & we talked for 20 minutes while she walked home. She told me the movie experience for Harry Potter 4, Saturday night was horrible. She said there were drunk people, kids in front of them, noisy people behind them, and that Carrie didn't even like the movie that much. I didn't understand why, until she told me that Carrie had just reread the book. I reread the 3rd book before I saw the 3rd movie and it made all the little changes worse for me - so I imagine that's probably why she didn't like it so much - but really - it's easily the best film in the series, and a fantastic adaptation. The book is better - but that's ok. ;-0)

After I let Mollie go, I ate, checked out the new Star Wars Chronology, and went to pick up Mark, it was about 5:52pm when I got there. I waited for him outside for like 20 minutes, and I was really feeling tired. We went home, and I put clean sheets on my bed, and layed down to read. I feel asleep around 7:40pm, and I woke up around 6:30am!!! I slept so well! I had fantastic dreams, and I was comfortable! That makes up for me missing Necto yet again... But wow. ;-0)

I found some wicked mashups this morning! I danced around my room for an hour! ;-0) Then I ate while I read, and Mark fixed up my computer and we watched the X-Men 3 Teaser, which has me all kinds of excited. It looks like it will be on par with the first 2 which is cool. I'm still a tiny bit nervous about it, because I enjoyed the first 2 so much, but it looks like it's going to kick ass! It also looks like it's following the whole 'cure' for mutants thing - which mirrors the whole 'cure' for gays thing. I think I'm gonna like it a lot. I think Beast looks kind of stupid, but he looks kind of stupid in the comic, so that doesn't bother me. It looks like Colossus & Kitty Pryde will be getting more screen time and I approve whole heartedly. Looks like Storm flies (finally!), and has another haircut - which is yet another improvement of her first do. A bit of phoenix & cyclops, Rogue & Iceman. Pyro, Magneto & Mystique were all seen; the latter with longer hair. Wolverine, of course, and Prof. X - not to mention ANGEL. ;-0) I'm far more excited about this movie than Superman Returns, though Supes will probably do better at the theater - he's got a huge following, but I think the X-Men flicks have been the best of the recent Superhero Flick Trend.

See The X3 Teaser Here.

Now, I'm gonna go brush my teeth, and shave this fur off my face. ;-0)

I wore my new shoes to work yesterday, which was fun for awhile, before they started killing me. Work was slow, and sort of...tiring. I called Janice, but she wasn't at home, and Jerry was in the hospital; Justin & Jordan were home alone, so I talked with them the entire way home, and then some, which was great. I was so tired though. I watched the latest Desperate Housewives, which is really getting good again, in my opinion, and then I went to sleep. I woke up around 4am; my stomache in knots, and I took a bath, which helped a little. I was not feeling good at all. I got back to bed, and woke up around 8:30am when Mark got in the shower. I'm still really tired, but I don't feel as bad as I did earlier. I have to work at 1pm so I have to eat & get ready; hopefully I can make it through my shift... erg.

I made it through my shift ok on Wednesday. It's always cool working with DJ & Andrea, plus we had a new guy named Jeff (Jeef) who was amausing, and the other Jeff who...was annoying me for some reason. But I started feeling a lot better around the time my shift was due out. I wore jeans to work that day, but I won't have to today. I watched some Dawson's Creek with Mark that night, and then I went to bed.

Thursday I fooled around online, most of the day. It was nice. The final boxed set of Batman: The Animated Series (really The New Batman Adventures) arrived around 4pm; as did the 2nd boxed set of Superman: The Animated Series (really The New Superman Adventures), Star Wars: Clone Wars, Volume 2, and the new Velgarth/Valdemar collection: "Crossroads". I dived into the new Batman DVDS; I'd only seen 3 of these 24 episodes before; I finished the first disc, and I'm nearly done with the 2nd. I've heard people argue about which Batman series is better for YEARS, but I've never really gotten to see them in such detail until now, and though both have their high & low points, I prefer these 24 episodes to the previous series; I enjoy the animation more, and the participation of Batgirl, Tim Drake/Robin & Nightwing - plus they just look cooler. I also watched another Dawson's Creek with Mark. I slept for about 7 hours - then watched another Batman episode.

I went back to bed around 7:30am, and woke up at 8:50am, from a really odd dream. I dreamt I was in my final week of High School, and had to go in at really odd hours. I thought I was getting ready for work, but I was actually being taken to school that ran from 5:05pm-12:30am. lol While getting ready I was on the phone with my cousin Heather, talking about a boy that lived in Mooreville that Jamie & I both dated, which didn't work out and we were all fine with that? lol (this never happened) Then at the after school dinner that was in some warm sunny place, with lots of movie stars, and distant relatives (I remember Jennifer Flynn was there, but she was actress Barbara Bach at the same time?). I sat down between two people, letting my feet dangle in a pool, when I realized I'd just sat down between David Arquette, and Courtney Cox Arquette, and then I felt weird having sat down between this married couple that I didn't even know. Then somehow David was sitting across from us too, with Rosanna & Patricia, and they said that it was ok. And I expressed how I thought the entire family was so gifted, and so attractive. I told them that the first time I saw Rosana was in "Desperately Seeking Susan"; Patricia was in "A Nightmare On Elm Strett, Part III: Dream Warriors" (which seemed to upset her); the first time I saw David was in a magazine article with him and Alexis (who wasn't there - but they explained to me that Alexis was now a woman, and that he hadn't kept the name, which shocked me; the name part. lol - and I wished he'd been there); and I pointed out the first time I saw Courtney was the Bruce Springsteen video, and she hugged me. I also said I remembered her from Family Ties, and Misfits of Science, and the latter brought a smile to her face and she told me she's teaching a class about acting and stuff, and that she tried to sing that theme, but she couldn't remember the words, so I joined in with her with the rest, which she said was "a really great sound!"??? lol And then I woke up. lol

Weird Huh?

I'm going to get something to eat, and watch still more Batman ;-0) I work today, so I have to shave & shower later (not that I don't usually shower a couple times every day), and I have new pants to try on for work. Hopefully today will fly by. I'm really looking forward to watching all these episodes of Batman & Superman. Also, I don't know if I mentioned this before, but the first season boxed set of Teen Titans comes out in February (though I already have all those episodes) and the first seasons of Justice Leauge & Batman Beyond are both due out in March!!! And it's rumored that the final set of Superman episodes (the best ones) will be out in June! Can Static Shock & The Zeta Project be far behind? ;-0)

My only worry about Justice League being released, is that this might mean that Justice League Unlimited may be in it's final 13 episode season, which would suck, as the show has always worked in 26 episode arcs before; not 13. Also, Justice Leauge has 52 episodes - that's the usual number of animated episodes of a series. JLU would only have 39; but with 1 more 13 episode season, they would have 52 episodes, and also have 26 episodes to finish with style, like I know they could. It's still too early to tell though, and there are still rumors of a Legion of Super Heroes series to come (though this may or may not even be part of the DCAU that began with Batman: The Animated Series).
