Your turn Wesley!!

Wes, I had a dream last night that Elisalyn got pregnant. You were down here and were showing me the five different outfits that you had bought. You didn't know if it was a boy or a girl, so you got colors that would go for either. As you were showing me the clothes you were telling me at what times your baby could wear them. For example, you had a black one that your baby could wear when it was going to get messy, or a maroon one it could wear when it was watching T.V. You explained to me that mom had taught you what stains you could get out of certain colors, so that is why you had chosen the colors that you had. :)

United 93

Okay, I have already talked to mom and Allie about this, but I just had to say that I am really REALLY upset by the upcoming movie about Flight 93. I was disturbed about the teaser trailer with just the plan flying and then turning around back toward the east coast, but now there is a full trailer for the movie, complete with images showing the two planes that hit the WTC. They waited 80 years to make a movie about Titanic, 60 years to make one about Pearl Harbor, but for some reason they think that 5 is enough to make one about 9/11. Just the trailer for this movie almost made me cry and mom did cry. It is in front of the movie Inside Man, so beware to anyone who is still extremely sensitive to this whole subject.

Is that legal?

So Natalie works at the new El Matador that opened right next to Baskin on Main St. While at work, Natalie fell and cut her wrist open. She needed six stitchs to close the wound but she also cut a nerve that makes it so that she can't feel her palm anymore. Even if she goes to a specialist, she will never regain feeling there. El Matador gave her workers comp. for the time that she had to stay out of work, but now that she got her stitches out and feels ready to work, but they won't let her... is that legal or is there something that she can do about that? They haven't fired her, but she isn't getting workers comp. anymore and he hasn't let her start working again.

"The Best Two Years"

I am really having a hard time with the fact that all of my friends are leaving in a short time. Will is leaving next week and it already seems like he is gone. He is never able to do anything because he has been packing his room up, and getting ready to leave. I am really going to miss him. He just laughed when I asked him if I could talk him out of it. His farewell is on Sunday and I have signed off work so that I can go. (No one die of shock... yes I am going to be going to church...) Jay leaves a few weeks after Will and then Kennedy leaves two weeks after that. Between all of my friends, though, I think that Kennedy is going to the best place. Jay is going to Mexico and Will is going to Portugal, but Kennedy gets to go to Norway.

And The Nominees Are....

I have now seen all of the movies nominated for Best Picture. The Academy Awards are on Sunday, so I had to hurry and see the last one. The nominations, in the order that I liked them, are:

Crash - a drama that follows the lives of ethnically different people living in L.A. in a two day period and how all of their lives connect.

Brokeback Mountian - (like you don't know) The movie that Larry Miller banned from his theaters because it was about two gay cowboys.

Good Night, and Good Luck - the six reporters that stood up to General McCarthy during the McCarthy trials in the 1950's.

Capote - Truman Capote investigated the murder of an entire family in Kansas and interviewed the killers for his non-fiction book In Cold Blood.

Munich - the very long winded story of the men that revenged the Munich Olympic attacks of the Jewish competitors by Black September.

This is the order that I liked them, but my guess is that Brokeback Mountain will win.

Odd Sleeping Patterns...

Instead of staying up all night, I have now started going to bed earlier. However, recently, I always seem to wake up around one in the morning for no reason. And last night I had a very strange dream... I was about to get married to a kid that I knew back from school, but I hadn't talked to him in a long time. My wedding was so rushed that none of my friends even knew that I was getting married, and it was also so unimportant to me that I had worked that morning. After work I came home and changed into my wedding dress, but I had forgotten to make hot fudge at work, so I went back and made the hot fudge even though I got some on my dress. Afterwards I was walking home and I passed my friends Will, Kennedy and Amber all standing outside of Dee's. I told them that I was getting married. They asked me why and I honestly couldn't tell them. At this point I started having second thoughts and decided to call of my wedding.

I have been hearing a lot of wedding talk lately since Eddy is getting married on Saturday, but Eddy wasn't even in my dream. The other thing that I found odd was I knew exactly who the groom was to be but I have no idea why I would be thinking about him. He was a kid that I went to school with, but we were never friends and I didn't have a crush on him. He was just someone I knew.

So everyone knows, I am planning to go to Eddy's wedding. We have started talking again and are trying to work on becoming friends again. I know that things are going to be extremely different now because he is getting married and he has ruined a lot of the trust that I once had in him as my best friend but we are trying to work on things because we had been close friends for a really long time. Anyways, I know that most of you don't approve, but this is what I want to do.

(Thanks Allie for my CD's. I have been listening to both of them for the last couple of days. :) Thank you!)
