Movie Reviews for the week

Of course with Dancing with the Stars (sorry to see Rocco go, he was nice, but couldn't dance) and my Wednesday Night Craft night, movie time is limited. BUT even more limited now with the new show Life on Mars!! So far it is good.

I was able to watch 3 movies this week :-)
--Over her dead body (with the Eva chick from Desperate Housewives) This was cute!
--The new Indiana Jones (Harrison Ford STILL rocks and I love they had Karen Allen back in it)
--Zohan (don't waste your time)

So much from your fav Movie Reviewer. I'm off to a fused glass class at SIU Craft shop today. Sounds like fun!!

Tomorrow is lunch out with some girlfriends and we are going to Vulture Fest!

:-) Peace

Edge of your seat

Now that I got you there, you are no doubt wondering why. 88 Minutes.

Nancy came over for a movie and din din last night. We had this. Keeper recipe for sure (and low carb-go me!!). We finally started the movie..........all I can say is wow, intense, thrilling, never know whats next! Very good movie, and Al Pacino is great as usual. Check this movie out.

Tonight we are planning on having some kind of blast!!!! Four of us (Nancy, Rick, Robb and I) are going to dinner at Midlands ( I'm thinking some low carb steak and salad) then to.........drum roll please B.B. KING CONCERT at the Arena!!!! I think all of Carbondale is going to be there. I'm planning on it being fantastic. Might see you there.

Nights are getting chilly!

So armed last night with a big pot of soup and a stack of movies, I settled in to relax before a busy weekend.

Speaking of the weekend The Stokers will be playing here Saturday at 11 a.m.. Then we have our usual Saturday night get-together with the usual Saturday night suspects. Sunday is our last pool/patio party for the year. The pool will probably be just a little too cool, though, we can pretend and just sit on the patio in the sunshine.

Oh yes, where was I, movies. I watched an odd little movie with Jennifer Aniston called "The Good Girl". Not what I would call a happy movie. I followed that up with the new George Clooney called "The LeatherHeads". That was a little more lighthearted. It is an old-time comedy romance with Renée Zellweger. Not the greatest movie in the world, but I would definitely recommend it. Oh, and the soup was good.

:-) Peace

p.s. I am not very happy that Cloris is still on dancing with the stars :-(

p.s. yes I WILL be having a fried twinkie

No Moss Growing on Me

again this weekend. Yesterday after the usual playing around on the internet and running errands in town, I crammed more events into the day/night. First there was a reception at the SIU Museum (Faner) for the Weaving Collection currently there. One of the members of my Craft Guild had some pieces in the collection (some of my personal favorites that were there) and we wanted to show our support (eat and drink for free, too!). Since there were only horse douvers :-) at the reception, a real meal was next in line. Yummy shrimp fettuccine at Spinoni's in the Garden Patio. The weather here is still fantastic!! Last but not least a friend's band was playing at Key West Bar and Grille. So music and dancing (and wine!) ended the night.

Off today to Cedarhurst Craft Show at Mt. Vernon. Got my walking shoes on!
:-) Peace

Upcoming Weekend.............

Saturday is my birthday and I guess all the stars are aligned properly, because there are tons of fun things to do day and night. We are going to start out with Robbie's band "4 on the Floor" playing at the DuQuoin State Fair entertainment tent from 12 to 3. Then we have just enough time to drive back to Rick and Robb's house for Robb's brother Jimmy's 40th birthday party from 4 to 7 pm. Next the Jungle Dogs play a reunion at the Pinch Penny Pub. They probably won't start till 10 o'clock, but we would need to be there at eight to get a table because it will be so popular!! And of course we will stay there till the close of the bar, since it is my birthday and all that :-)
And then there is Sunday. Robbie's other band "The Stokers" will be playing all afternoon at the Alto Winery.
So get those dancing shoes on and come join us this weekend!!
:-)Peace
