I love vanilla shakes

It's been a crazy hectic week. Luckily, I had a wonderful, relaxing, love-filled weekend.

Today I got some movie screening tickets from Park Ave CDs (The one on Virginia, of course) It's for Rescue Dawn with Steve Zahn and Christian Bale. Check out the trailer, it's intense. Hopefully, hopefully, hopefully we'll get to the theater in time to get in. I haven't been to a screening in so long so I really have my fingers crossed.



Today I received an email from Ted with the following link: Potter. I promptly replied, "I can't read that!!!!" after skimming the first couple paragraphs. Last part I read said-"Look away." I did! I just couldn't read it! The final Harry Potter book will be out in a few days and I don't want to see any spoilers-whether or not they are true. (Supposedly, this article has actual 100% accurate spoilers).

On Saturday we saw LucĂ­a y el sexo (Sex and Lucia). It was super interesting, imaginative, sexy, and sweet/disturbing. The line that probably struck me the most was when Lorenzo says "What was the point of being a father if she didn't know?" He was talking about his daughter Luna after he's informed of her birth. He basically visits her and gets to know her while keeping his identity a secret. I suppose there is no reason to call yourself a father if you don't act like one to your child. I think Lorenzo deep down wants Luna to know that he's her father. The truth is though, it's much easier to live your life without acknowledging a child than to grow up without a parent. It's not two sides of the same coin. It's not like seeing lightning but not hearing the thunder. It's like living in darkness on the sun.

"It's not a bloodbath, but it's more than two"

Harry Potter book countdown is at 11 days! Recent CNN.com article According to J.K. Rowling, there are a few deaths in book 7. Personally, I don't think Harry Potter is one of them. Not because I'm trying to be positive but because I am confident that Harry is going to have the opportunity to avenge the deaths of his parents, Cedric, Sirius, and Dumbledore in this next book. Would Rowling allow Harry to become as powerful as he has become, to know as much as he has learned, and then get defeated by Voldemort? That just doesn't make sense. Well, I guess we'll just have to wait + or - 2 weeks to find out...

I saw a great image today of the Evolution of Apple's Products. Check it out! Whoa, right? How many of you played The Oregon Trail or Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego on one of those early Macs of the 90's?

I hung out with some swimming penguins yesterday. All is well at the Sea World exhibit. As well as the friendly Hospitality Center :) Cheers!
