The Weekend of Much Entertainment
Tuesday, July 06, 2010

Whoa, I am sweating like a mother here!! I can feel the sweat crawling off my skin and I keep thinking it's a bug, ick.

Lots of fun stuff the last week or so. Steph's 21st birthday for one!! Summerfest to see Passion Pit (awesome except for all the weirdos, ick), then a small gathering at their house on Friday. Now only Scampi is left...

I became obsessed with Silence of the Lambs, bought the movie, then read all 3 books in the series, finishing the last one today. Soooo good. Hannibal and Clarice run away to Rio together at the end of the final book, which was an odd but happy end, at least for them. I really liked Lecter and I was glad he didn't die some awful death at the end, though he came close. They were so well written, probably the best written books I've ever read.

We didn't do anything for the 4th, but I did have a 4-day-weekend which ends today. Lame! Libby, Becky, Corey and I went and saw Last Air Bender. It was beyond terrible. They made the Asian people white, the white people brown, and I'm pretty sure Shyamalan shot the entire movie on the first take. It was so terrible, we came out and saw that Eclipse was playing in a half hour, so we jumped in line and bought tickets for that to cleanse our eyes of the horror that was The Last Airbender. It was pretty awesome; it was funny, the action scenes were actually GOOD (except the part where Riley gets pulled away by Seth at the end, kinda retarded looking!), and there was enough shirtlessness to keep me happy for two hours. Next up...Toy Story 3 or Eclipse again? Hrm...

On a random note... apparently Libby and Corey saw some guy fall off the sky glider at Summerfest, get up, then collapse in a pool of his own blood before the EMT people got to him and carted him away. Did I miss the news special on this or something!? Holy crap!
