Help! I've Been Raped.....
Help! I've Been Raped..... magnify

....by the gas gods. Seriously, is anyone as sick of gas prices as I am? I am a Wawa gas buyer. You really can't find it cheaper anywhere else (except for BJ's sometimes, but I'm not a member) and still I paid $3.07 yesterday. Obnoxious! I'm sure it's more expensive in places like New York or California, but for my teeny tiny nothing state, this is ridiculous! My total came to $29 and some change, which is a lot compared to the barely $20 I was spending just months ago to fill it. I'm sure those of you driving around monster vehicles look at what I pay and scoff, so maybe I shouldn't complain.

Wait, yes I should!!! You chose that car, and I chose mine, so I CAN be mad about $29!

There, I feel better.

Is It Really Only Wednesday?
Is It Really Only Wednesday? magnify

Sheesh! Here I thought it should be at least Saturday. I've done a lot so far this week. (I work a 40 hour week, so take that into account as I tell all of the other wonderful things I've done)

Monday night I cooked dinner. While this may not seem like a big deal to most, it's a pretty big deal for me as I have four siblings and my fiance ate over with us. So yeah, I cooked a meal for 9 people. Go me. Normally, I would have had to do the dishes but the wonderful Luke did them for me so I could work out. For 45 minutes. I guess now is a good time to tell you that I hate working out, so again, not a big deal to most, but a big deal to me.

Last night, we went out to dinner with some friends of ours who are newleyweds (does that 'title' have a bad stigma now?) which wasn't necessarily rough, but considering that I have "more important" things to do, I couldn't really enjoy myself the way I should've been able to.

This morning Luke called me at 5:15 am so I could get up and work out. Normally, he just calls me and once he realizes that I'm awake, hangs up. This, however, was not effective as I would just go back to sleep and not work out. So today, he stayed on the phone with me until I got dressed, used the bathroom, went downstairs and put in the pilates DVD. I guess I was being forced to workout. So I did. I got ready for work, walked out the door and called Luke. I basically had a nervous breakdown on the phone because of all of the pressure I'm receiveing from every corner. People reminding me of all of things that I still have to do for the wedding (mostly my mother) and other people who I've asked to do stuff, that just don't do it. It's really been eating me up because I HATE confrontation so I just bottle it all up until I break down in tears from not being able to handle the pressure anymore. I think I'm sort of ok now. No promises though.

Not to mention the fact that I really haven't had a good night's sleep in months. Also due to wedding horrors. I'll dream about whatever the problem of the day is relating to the wedding. "We still don't have a string quartet!" "Don't forget to order the candy!" "Don't forget to order the music for Randy and Laura's song!" "Remember that this is a wonderful time of your life and to cherish it!" BLAH. BLAH. BLAH.

I actually dream about this crap. It'll wake me up, I'll have a hard time falling back to sleep, and then I'll dream about something else. It's a vicious cycle.

Maybe I'll get some sleep tonight though?

You've Gotta See This!
You've Gotta See This! magnify

I've decided to make You've Gotta See This! a semi-regular post.  I say semi-regular because it's based on how often Luke takes me to the movies. Or if I take myself, but lets face it, why pay if you don't have to, right? I guess when we get married though, I will sort of be taking myself, as our money will be combined at that point, but anyway!

Please understand that I am no Ebert nor am I Roper for that matter, and I don't have the time or the money (neither does Luke) to see every movie known to man. If you would like to pay me to watch movies I would be glad to accept donations. Comment on this entry, and I'm sure we could work something out.

I might even be willing to watch scary movies (even though I will have nightmares for the rest of my life), action/adventure (even though my eyes may glaze over and I probably won't be able to give an accurate account of the film), or even what I call "guy films". You know the ones; SuperTroopers, anything with Chris Farley, movies with lots of fighting and no real story line.....you get the picture. I would suffer through it all, just to get paid.

You thought I forgot why I was posting in the first place, didn't you? So, You, Me and Dupree. It was a GREAT flick. It was easy to watch and as usual, Owen Wilson had me rolling on the floor. VERY funny. I think the thing that stood out the most, and bare with me as I am a total nerd and probably the only one to walk out of the theater thinking this, was the character chemistry. I know, I know, pathetic right? In all seriousness though, they couldn't have picked three better people to fill these rolls.

Kate Hudson played a great wife. She does really well in rolls where she's sweet, funny, quirky and sympathetic. Very good.

Matt Dillon was really great as the husband who's still trying hard to grasp the reality of marriage and balance that with his boyish college years. Probably the least comedic, he was the most complex.

Owen Wilson was just, well, Owen Wilson. He was funny, charming, witty, annoying and surprisingly deep. The classic, more than what is on the surface, character, but with a touch of hilarity at every turn.

This movie was worth the 1/2 hour drive and the $18.00 (total) on tickets. It's a great flick, but not reccomended for young audiences. Please do not bring your 12-year-old to this movie as I saw one father do. It is for adults only!
