Craven 2010

Ahhh... the weekend of waiting.

Ange and I went to Craven --almost everyday. ALMOST. I guess it's my own fault for not including enough in my craven prayer, which went something like this:

I pray that pre shopping, I don’t sit in pee. I pray that vehicle windshields are safe from birds and rocks. I pray that on the trip to Regina, my car passes through Davidson without difficulty. I pray that my key won’t bust off in the car door. I pray waxing my legs won’t be pointless and I can wear shorts, or at least capri pants. I pray that I can wear my pants the whole weekend without incident. I pray that McDonald’s has ketchup and doesn’t run out. I pray that my rubber boots remain safe from thieves. I pray that Lori and Dwayne will get great seats each day for the shows. I pray the buses are free from Billy Joel wannabes and bus drivers don’t have to stop to lecture anyone. I pray Zeke won’t bark outrageously when we come home and wake up Grant. Finally, I pray that the mud and bugs are minimal.

So it turns out I forgot to pray that buses would be on time, not 4 hours late and I forgot to pray to see Neal McCoy's "not to be missed" amazing show. I also forgot to pray for no line ups.

I'll remember for next year, this blog as my witness!!

Aero Vs. Oreo

Do you really need to give your employees more to struggle with?? The phonetic difference between Aero and Oreo is not enough, and on two separate occasions they’ve messed up the McFlurry orders. They got it right this week by some miracle. I wanted to tip the clerk that’s how insanely happy I was.

So, c'mon McDonald's, I urge you to find another candy or cookie to further mess this up!

Mmm... Robert Downey Jr.

I just watched Iron Man 2. In russian, not english.

I noticed about 49 minutes into the movie. This says a few things. First of all, I should maybe get hearing aids. Possibly, I should cough up the $4 to see the movie in english at the Rainbow and not watch it for free online (in a foreign language).

This also signifies how good of a movie Iron Man 2, that I completely grasped the plot and concepts. As well, it shows how smokin' hot Robert Downey Jr. is that I can watch for that long and not notice the wrong language, and then continue watching because I don't care and he's smokin' hot!!

So, my review -- Iron Man 2 -- good movie in english or russian.
