pondering....

1. Why is it that no matter what position she goes to sleep in, when I wake up in the morning, Alex is perpendicular to me, with her toenails digging into my back.
2. Why does my teenage daughter suddenly have a British accent when she is talking to her boyfriend on the phone?
3. Why do my animals enjoy relieving themselves in the floor next to my bedroom door???
4. Why does the application of freshly washed sheets on my bed suddenly spark an onslaught of beverage/food related accidents?
5. There is no 5, I just wanted to mention that I really want one of these Tassimo machines:

this reminds me of that motel we stayed in at Cocoa Beach




Yeah I rented Vacancy from Netflix. Partly because my niece told me the preview scared the crap out of her, and partly because it has
Luke Wilson in it. I have a little thing for him. And I have watched some bad movies in my time, just cause they had him in it (My Super Ex Girlfriend anyone?). This movie, however was not one of them. I am so glad I didn't see it at the movies because I would probably have jumped off my seat. From the opening credits you get the impression that it is an ode to low budget thriller movies in the vein of Alfred Hitchcock.
It is nerve-wracking and terrifying, and it did so without the gore that I REALLLLY do not care for. You get a real bad feeling about this place, especially when you see the creepy lil dude with the bouffant 'do who
offers them the 'honeymoon suite" for no extra charge. The tunnel scenes were especially nail-biting and claustrophobic. *Shivers*
It's not an academy award winner by a long shot, and we barely get to know the couple and what they're dealing with in their relationship, but as far as cheap thrills go, it rules. It's also not very long which is always a plus in my opinion.

In closing, here's another Luke Wilson pic, just cause I want to.
