my reward for being productive today

gonna watch "district 13: ultimatum" on netflix w/ the ol' hubby.  i seem to have cleaned my side of the room enough to warrant a "fun" break.  & i'll have you know i didn't hide a thing.  not under the bed.  not in my nightstand.  nada nowhere.  the junk i went through today is either in a neat pile waiting for me to deal w/ tomorrow or in the trash.  i mean, sure, i took an hour in between to have sushi w/ my mom at chikurin on queens blvd. around 3, but other than that, it was pure organizing at its finest.

now onto the movie... (i simply LOVE flicks that are described as "action-packed," "violent" & "exciting," even in french.)

thunderstorms outside -- on-demand inside

i made a smidge of a bad call w/ netflix'ing "killer elite" last night.  it was especially disappointing after seeing the extremely fun n' cheesy "battle royale" (<- click to see full movie here) at the IFC center that afternoon w/ my friend karen & hulu'ing the season finale of "modern family" w/ carl later in the evening.  it's not like i set my expectations high (or even middle-of-the-road) for "killer elite"... let's just say, it was not-so-good & my bubble was deflated.



gonna find something on-demand now that doesn't suck like a hoover to watch w/ the family.  wish us luck & pray for mojo that we don't wind-up w/ an "america's got talent" marathon on this ever-so-stormy saturday night.  we would've seen "dark shadows" at the midway, but it's way too rainy out for my taste.  (i'll be w/ you soon, johnny depp...)


[update, a lil' after 10:30pm: watched an annoying episode of "dan vs." & some other mindless TV.  ahh, quality family time... you gotta love it.  claire's asleep now.  carl's watching sports & doing sports stuff on his computer.  & well, me... i'm listening to pete yorn's "pete yorn" album & futz'ing around the computer.  too late to find a movie to watch now.  or is it...?]

[update, a lil' after that: hello, "robocop 2."]

it's chuckle-time w/ patton oswalt

taking a break from netflix'ing "13 assassins" to watch patton oswalt's "finest hour" on comedy central. i already listen to the album on an almost-daily basis -- just $5 for the mp3 download on amazon -- so i really can finish the movie... i just don't want to b/c he's so fricking hysterical.

(btw, i said "assassins"... heh-heh.)

back to normal

5 days of horseback riding, pudding-eating contests, (watered-down) cocktail parties, sleeping by myself in my own king-sized bed, skeeter sightings & more is over & done w/ -- i'll post the few pictures we've got at a later date.  now, it's time to get back into the swing of things, starting w/ this movie that i found on netflix (yay, tonight is "kitti's choice"):

sunday, interrupted

w/ carl in atlantic city till wednesday, i'm holding-off on watching our sunday night shows till he returns home -- we'll catch-up w/ them together on-demand later in the week.

so, what's a gal to do on a sunday night?  well, the putch is asleep, etta james is on spotify & i'm about to treat myself to an episode or two of "high school of the dead" on netflix -- i'll prolly cap that off by falling asleep w/ the food network on TV.  pretty decent plans, if'n yooze ask me.

x-men and ice cream sundaes

family night is underway.

thank you, netflix and playstation 3.
