wow... been a while since i updated this

no real reason, just been busy.

boy has a great job. I have a great job.  we like our apartment.  we bought a huge book case form ikea that was ridiculously heavy to bring upstairs.  it's together, but not in use yet, need to spend a day going through the living room and moving stuff so we can slide it up to the wall and secure it. 
 we found this laundromat that is really brand new with fancy large capacity washrs and driers.  we did 5 baskets full of stuff in about an hour.  it was some kind of amazing, and the washers were so much better than the ones here.  i thnk we will continue to use this place instead of the machines here.  the machines here at a $1 a load to wash and a $1 a load to dry.  they are generally in disrepair and may or may not rinse/dry clothes as expected.

because of boy's posh job, we have been treated to many free movies recently.  iron man and wall-e were the last 2. both were good.  i quite enjoyed iron man and i can't wait for a sequel.  i just love robert downey jr, he is so charasmatic on screen even if it is the same twitchy slightly drugged up person in every role, he plays it so well.  on the other hand, i was disappointed in gwenth, i thought she could do so much more, generally i love every second she is on screen, but i felt she was boring as damsel in slight distress in love with her boss/rescuer.  i hope she has more substance in the inevitable sequel.  i guess it's hard when there is a the comic book cannon to adhere to. 

wall-e.  i ddidn't hate the movie, i just hate how pixar makes these parables, then beats you to a bloody pulp with it.  i get it people are fat slobs with no common sense.  the movie was beautifully animated and amazing to watch.   the story was cute. 

i spent a long weekend back in orlando visiting with friends.   i do miss my friends,but i most certainly do not miss orlando.

we just got the last we fit in the glendale/pasadena area.  i can't believe how difficult to get this game was.  it was more difficult than the wii itself. it's interesting, and difficult.  it really is a workout.

stayed in for the 4th.  i just can't be bothered to deal with drunk drivers and crowds anymore. 

actually i'm just plain disappointed in humanity and their behavior in public.   first the constant screaming at the pool all day long and now all night.  2 nights ago i had to go out at 11pm and ask the people in the pool to keep it down.  i mean seriously, i don't care if you are in the pool, but you can't be screaming at 11pm.  some people actually try to relax and go to sleep around that time.  during the day i can somewhat understand, but it's a small pool, so there is no need to be screaming like that a all.  i mean blood curdling screams like what you should do if someone is drowning.

   and the people upstairs slam their cabinets and it makes our whole apartment shake.  i never hear any other neighbor, just the wankers upstairs stomping about.  i'm convinced it's a family of elephants.  i can almost understand that being it's probably not loud in their apartment.  i'm going to call the landlord and ask hi to talk ot them nicely.  i'm afraid i might just tell them to stop slamming the effing cabinets and wear socks inside.   

even more disspaointing than my neighbors, in publc at chipotle yesterday, i had to tell some children to stop running around in the big circular booth.  they were playig tag over the table.  the parents wer ein line not payign attention to the kids at all.  someone could have slipped and cut open their head.  not only that, but who taught them it was cool to walk all over furniture?  they may not mind sitting in the dirt form their shoes, but what about the others coming to the resturant to sit and enjoy a meal?  what about the employees that will have to clean up the booth when they are done?   i did yell at the kids and tell them that the table is not a playground and they were disturbing others trying to eat.  i mean seriously, where was the mother and why wasn't she saying that?  and no i didn't care that she heard me say nasty things about her because she wasn't being a responsible parent.  THIS IS WHY I CAN NOT HAVE KIDS, because i hate other parents, and i wouldn't want society to ruin my children and let them run wild.  

and today  while was shopping for the wii fit at target, there were 3 adult, ADULTS, playing with the keyboards at full volume,  and when i say playing, i mean attempting to hit every button in one go on all three sample keyboards.  i did yell to get their attention and then told them that they needed to stop, people were trying to shop and they were being disrespectful to shoppers and target employees.  ADULTS.  i mean seriously  not even college students, i mean adults.   i'm turning into the angry old lady . 

i just don't understand why people think it's acceptable to be so disruptive in public settings with no regard to others?  surely i am not the only one whose mother scolded hem when they were being too loud.  i'm not saying don't play with the keyboards, but don't put them up to 11 and then mash every key on all three keyboards.  that's not playing, that's not even looking to buy.  those keyboards are there for people interested in purchasing them, not for people to abuse them and annoy others.   i can't be the only one who was raised by their mother to respect others in public.  i can't be the only one to have worked fast food and know what a pain it is to clean up after little children allowed to run wild by inattentive parents

ugh.  society.  i should become a shut in.
