Its way too late and I'm too tired to figure out how to make a circular icon in GIMP tonight. Any hints?

movies to see: Planet 51, Chipmunks 2, G Force, Aliens in the Attic

Sitting in the theatre about to watch Ice Age 3 with the boys.

I think I am
all caught up with my icontests, early for once.

Been spending the majority of the day making icons and working. I'm quite pleased that my icons are looking better. I'm still not the greatest but much better than I was. I'm participating in a rumble, which is awesome and something I wouldn't have done last year at this time. I picked my character because I did such a crappy job on the character when they came up in the icontest.

I'm still having a difficult time with actual people but I'm getting better at those too... slowly. Still, I'm trying. I haven't made a single Supernatural icon since I'm still staying out of that fandom. I can't wait until the new season starts though. *squee*

Some icons for my own reference ( of course you can look too )

Every preview that showed before Transformers last night are movies I want to see.

One more little thing before I pass out for the night.

Actually, three little things...

I just got back from seeing Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen.

It was outstanding.

Update, in bullets

♥ Ok, first of all, tell me that you've seen the preview for zombieland..

♥ The boys discovered that the Sci-Fi channel is going to be having a Twilight Zone marathon on Thursday so, they set up the DVR to record them all since I will be at work. Woot.

♥ Tonight, I'm going to go see Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen with a girl at work. I think that I'm going to pick up a pizza or something for the boys so that I don't have to worry about cooking.

♥ A lady (not a client) just called here and said her name was Roberta Pattinson. Color me amused.

♥ My headset on my dictation machine just snapped in half. Sucks.

♥ I am starving. Forgot to eat breakfast and I don't have any snacks here. I could go next door to get an onion bagel and cream cheese but I hate to leave when my boss is going to be gone this afternoon and for the next few days.

♥ My boss is going to be out of the office until MONDAY! Numfar! Do the dance of joy!

♥ Mom and I watched Confessions of a Shopaholic. It was a cute little movie. Not a complete waste of 1.5 hours. I won't be watching it again though.

♥ Yesterday one of my drivers corrupted (apparently a power surge zapped it) and my screen resolution was stuck on 800 x 600 and the color quality was stuck on 4. If I opened IE, I got a fatal error and the whole computer froze and shut down. If I had more than one program opened, I got a fatal error and the whole computer shut down. *sigh*. So, I had to reboot the computer in safe mode which meant that I wasn't networked. Thank goodness for zip drives. You see, the main problem with me not being networked is that I am the network. So, if anyone wanted to work on something I had to copy it to a zip drive, they'd work on it, give it back and then I'd save the new file over the old file. To make it just that much more convenient, the printer that I normally print from is attached to a computer that is older than my children. So, in order to print, I either had to wait for Methuselah to find my file or walk to the OTHER end of the building to print my documents (which of course I had to save to a zip drive). Then the tech came and reinstalled my driver. Now, all is happy in my world again.

My dog is far more accurate than the weather man

wickedoll is coming with me to Texas. Can't wait.

No internets for me today. :( computer is being stupid.

I have been working pretty steadily all morning. I did hop on and I was intending to catch up on my flist but I got distracted by a clicky. It's a blog written by a man with true life accounts of Psychotic Letters from Men. I'm certainly not a man hater by any stretch of the imagination but (or perhaps because of) I've run into my far share of crazy while dating and even when I'm not.

Saturday, I went out with mom. I went to the bookstore and bought How to Survive a Horror Movie. I read it while getting a pedicure which earned me some interesting looks since I was cackling. Then we bought some video games, The Dark Knight on dvd and groceries.

Saturday night, mom started playing Infinite Undiscovery. When I got up on Sunday, I created my game.

I stayed up far too late last night. It was almost 11 when I turned off the game and then I had to watch last night's episode of True Blood. So tired today.

Twilight tie-ins are everywhere but this is one that I actually bought. Of course, I actually use Lip Venom so, its not a huge stretch or anything. Lip venom with a crimson stain. So bought it. Lip Venom V

The BBC believes most people will have only read 6 of the 100 books here. How do your reading habits stack up?

Put an 'X' after those you have read.

( book meme )

They have turned one of my very favorite Twilight Zone episodes (in the top 20, at least) into a movie. It's called Button, Button. What happens is that the box arrives at your house. In the box, there is a red button. If you push the button, you get 1 million dollars but someone that you don't know dies. I remember the episode vividly; I also remember how it ends. I wonder if its going to end the same way?

Anyway, the trailer can be found in Quicktime. Here's the link for The Box.

I'm just going to ramble a bit about The Twilight Zone for a bit, ( ok? )

My son just told his brother,"No, life is women and video games and advanced weaponry."

I have killed 6 bugs in this office in the last two hours. Its driving me crazy.

10 Mass Effect text icons here. I made one and I liked the way it looked so I made a few more.

Movie Review Time

Miss Potter 3.5 stars( follow the rabbit )

Becoming Jane 4 stars( it did not suck )

The Univited First Viewing: 4 stars; Second Viewing: 5 stars( buying this TODAY )

The Devil's Tomb 2 stars( really? )

Repo! The Genetic Opera 4 stars( everybody make your genetics your bitch )

I made a few Mass Effect text icons. Anybody got a favorite quote from the game that you want to share?

New icon post.

I'm all excited about going to Texas in a few weeks. I don't feel very good today though so I'm only kinda here. *waves* ♥ you all.

How sad is it that my plan to visit my hometown features a trip to the grocery store?

Ok. The Uninvited was a weird movie. 4 out of 5 stars.

I am so hot, I've considered setting up a swamp cooler in my bedroom. I'm way too tired to be that ambitious tonight.
