When we weren't watching the Kennedy services, we also watched some Amazon downloads on Tivo: Valkyrie, 17 Again and New in Town. All very good. Tom Cruise looks good with that curly wave to his hair. Julie felt that since we had never seen any of these, they should count as new things. Somehow I just don't think I can count, "hung out and watched movies" as new stuff.
I also ordered a refill for my Allegra, which I've been taking daily and now realize that this is why I haven't been sick in over a year. I've been out of them for several days, and now the various sinus symptoms including raging headache are back in full. Ah well, the postman will bring the magic elixir of clearness in a few days and all will be right with the world.
On a side note, during 17 Again two of the characters were discovering the geekness of the other when Gandalf the White came up in conversation. The other pointed out that he was Gandalf the Grey during Fellowship of the Ring and then returned in The Two Towers as Gandalf the White. I had to pause the movie so I could reach to my side table and hold up the two books sitting there for Julie to see. Yes, Fellowship of the Ring and The Two Towers. "Geek," she responded. Some things will never change.

you are too funny----you actually had those two books sitting there and they just happened to show up in a movie---and a kid movie at that? you are a geek, lol.
ReplyDeletehow was the tea? i am looking for new things and decided i might live vicariously through some of your new things.
I'm only surprised the movie didn't mention Star Trek and Lost too ... that would've been really geeky!
ReplyDeleteOur new things for today: we tried a new pasta (gemelli) for dinner, and I downloaded Ecofont to see if it'll save us any ink.
del. - The tea was good. More of a soothing tea than a wakeup tea, but nice.
ReplyDeletesox - there were many Star Wars references, but not so much on Trek. The geeky character had a bed in the shape of Luke's landspeeder. I don't have one of those, so no picture.
I did, however, add a picture to the post, showing the two books on the table.
