Been awhile....

Well it's been a long time since I posted anything in my blog. I'm going to try to fix that. I changed the name to reflect a different direction I'm going to take with this, and hopefully that will help me update it more often. We shall see....I no longer want to "wear the cone of shame" when it comes to my blogging. Which leads me to the first "point" of the day.

"Squirrel"


The movie Up. We bought it for the road trip down to my Mom's for Christmas, and I gotta say I wasn't too impressed with the previews. Thought maybe I would pass this one up. Man, I'm glad I didn't. It is so good. And I love the dogs in it. The quotes up above are from the movie, so you can tell how much it's influenced me already. Of course I've seen it like 20 times since Christmas because my girls love it too.

Today I was in the YMCA waiting on a weight machine, and a lady comes up and asks if I was waiting on an empty one that was next to the one that I was waiting on. I went full blown Dug on her. I think I might have gotten one word out in English, then just pointed at the machine. Got a weird look, but I conveyed my message. Maybe I've watched it one too many times.

Also still trying to get a long box of comics read. Been going through the Savage Dragon series from Erik Larson over at Image. So far it's been a good read, and Erik's style in the art department is great on the book. Somewhere near the 100 issue mark it kind of changes tone, which kind of threw me off a little, but I think that's just because I'm missing a lot of the issues leading up to then in the series. But eBay is my friend and I picked up the last 10 or so issues the other night, so now I'm ready to dive back in as soon as it gets here.
