Did anyone else watch last night?
Yes that's right, after a series of direct to home movies ending with a cliffhanger where this season picked up, its back! Thanks Comedy Central! It was pretty good too! We'll see how the rest of the season goes to see if its fully back, but from the 2 episodes last night its a good start :)
Also as much as I'm enjoying the world cup, its seriously interfering with my sleep :( I'm so tired! I didnt even watch any of the games last night. meh :(

Disney Hates Giving Things For Free
So a few months back we bought Toy Story and Toy Story 2 on Blu Ray. Both came with a card that said "One Free Ticket To Toy Story 3!!!". So we did what any pixar loving people would do, and saved those codes in an obvious location in our apt. Finally when it came time to use it we actually still had it and one hour before the show thought to redeem them. We went to the indicated website, and joined the disney club (of course they were going to require that). What happened next was the incredible, we had to jump through hoops for the next THIRTY minutes trying to figure out which page leads to the next and which new codes to use etc. It was RIDICULOUS. They couldnt have made it any more difficult. Finally we went down to the printer and printed out the tickets only to see "good for $8.50 worth of tickets"....WHAT DECADE DID DISNEY THINK THIS WAS? Even if we had seen TS3 on a normal screen we would have had to pay a combined additional 5 dollars since the base ticket now a days is 11 bucks. On top of that we decided to see it in 3D (not even imax 3D) and had to pay a combined additional 12 dollars!!!! Thats an entire extra ticket for a normal movie! I dont know who i'm more annoyed at, disney for being so cheap, or the theaters for charging such outrageous prices!!!!
Toy Story 3
Clearly I've already seen this movie. It was awesome. However, clearly I did not like it as much as the rest of the adults in the theater. Something would happen that referenced another movie or something and the adults would laugh as hard as they could, some even literally slapping their knees. It is unclear to me if they actually thought it was that funny, or if they wanted everyone else to know that they got the joke. I mean I was amused, but those particular parts weren't laugh out loud funny.
The end of the movie (without trying to spoil anything) was super sentimental, and I did my best not to cry. I kept telling myself, its just a movie and you cannot cry for a toy (those of you thinking its a spoiler, its not what you think). Anyway I highly recommend this movie!
Also, We did see it in 3D which is by no means necessary.

What a JAG pary
This weekend Leslie briefly flew through town and stayed just long enough for a little fun and a lot of pool time.
Sat night we decided to have a fiesta with us three, the farmers, and evan le gwinn. We made tamales and sangria (lots of sangria) and went down to the patio by the pool to eat. Not too long after we got there, we could see inside the party room to see that some amazon girls in cowboy hats and some michael bolton look alikes were having a party inside with lots of food and a keg. We stayed outside and were thinking eventually thier party would grow in size, but it plateaued pretty early. By 11 thier rental of the party room was over, and to noone's surprise most of the keg must have remained...so what did they do? They brought it out to the idiots sitting outside in 200 degree weather. They filled up our now empty sangria pitcher, and even hung out for a bit. They hung out long enough for us to find out they were all Jag's...literally.

Getting Ready
For the new Starcraft to come out. Some people (probably the ones who have played before) are concerned with things like making sure your computer is up to speed for such high tech gaming. Others, like myself are more concerned with what name to use for war mode or battlenet or whatever. I've come up with something awesome if i do say so myself:
Princess Ray Ray Twinkle Toes McGillicuddy
I'm open to other suggestions though

I'm jumping on the hating vuvuzela bandwagon
I thought it was neat, and spirited, and fun. That is until I watched hour after hour after hour of the world cup. Last night was the final straw when we watched 2 tivoed games back to back. Finally halfway through the brazil korea game I had to leave the room (and go to bed) before my head exploded. Seriously guys, if you played it just during exciting parts it would mean so much more. There is NO need to constantly be playing it for 90 minutes straight! I'm surprised more fans dont pass out from vuvuzela exhaustion! I'm seriously considering wiring my tv sound through my laptop so that I can filter out the horns.
