Laura and I watched ‘The Omen’ (the new one) this afternoon.

I like scary and creepy movies and religious ones always appeal to me a lot. However time and time again I find myself disappointed with them. The problem is that God and the devil never directly interact with our world. They act through humans so [...]

Laura and I rented ‘SherryBaby‘ tonight and it was… different. Maggie Gyllenhaal’s hot and all but her character is just so dirty and trashy in the movie that she’s really not all that attractive anymore.

Although the plot of the movie was rather boring and uneventful (in my opinion), Maggie’s performance in the movie was very [...]

Today was our last day of in-class training. Also the only day of cable fulfillment training. Considering that’s supposed to be our specialty - they sure just breezed over it all.
At the end of the day, our trainer gave us all presents, each tailored to us personally. She gave me a toy car so I [...]

Dennis, Joe, Alison and I headed to Vijay’s for dinner tonight. It’s a really nice Indian place on Weber, right across from the unemployment office. The food was quite delicious. It took a while to come but it was worth it. Joe and I split a dinner for “two” that would have fed 3 easily. [...]

Jamie and I stayed after work and played Ping Pong for half an hour before driving to my place where he tried out my Wii as I talked to Laura.
After a bit, we met up with Dennis and Shawn at the train station to pick up Joe. With him in town, we all went [...]

But first, an unrelated story…
[09:03] <Romer> is 24 on tonight?
[09:14] <s23> …yes
[09:14] <s23> 2 hours
[09:15] <Romer> damn
[09:15] <Romer> the show description in the interactive guide seemed so generic it matched every other episode
[09:16] <Romer> so since it was 2hrs, I figured it was rerunning the first 2 hrs or something
[10:34] <sbdep> when the description is [...]

Laura and I watched ‘Pan’s Labyrinth’ this afternoon. While we both enjoyed it, we were definitely expecting it to be more… magical. We were expecting a story that took place in a magical realm or something but instead the fantastic elements were more of a b-story to the civil war that populated the bulk of [...]

Tonight, Laura’s parents threw a dinner party for their hairstylist, her husband, Laura, her sister and I. Her dad was making pizza, so I knew I had no choice but to attend and gorge myself on the delicious eats.

Laura and I did our Valentine’s Day thing tonight. Went out to Casey’s for dinner. We’d never been there before, so looked up their menu online to confirm that they had a veggie burger available since that’s what Laura was craving. We hung out at the bar while waiting for a table during which time [...]
