Connie and Zack: the conspiracy of two

Just a forum where my wife and I can ramble together

Bob Loblaw's law blog!

Is it just me, or is Arrested Development getting funnier and funnier -

"We're hemorraging money..." "Gob was finding himself overwhelmed by all the change..."

"That's how Tony Wonder lost a nut!"

"While Tobias was trying to get his mouth around Bob Loblaw..."

"How can I get rid of Gob?" "That ship sailed 35 years ago."

"Stick it in what??? Stick it in what???"

"... the OC..." "Don't call it that!"

"Is it unscripted, like Curb?"

"It was kind of funny with Yellow Submarine...but who could afford it?"

"I won't do it! That's not the way Mother is raising me!"

"Gengi 2... I think she wanted to go back for a chemical peel."

Sigh. Why this show is getting cancelled is beyond me.

What?

Big ideas are afoot. I've decided to calm down a moment and reset. The spontaneous ephiphany, the clear second of thought has hit me.

I give up my negativity. I welcome positive change.

Why so stressed before?

I saw a bumper sticker once : "WAKE UP MUGGLES!". I often feel like shouting that.

Limitations Part Whatever

I am not as heathly emotionally as I would like. Each day, I have a choice:

A) Pin down my emotions and function "normally" or

B) Allow my emotions to run wild.

Either way, the negativity finds ways to express itself.

It's the time of the year. It's the waning sunlight. It's a little hint of illness. It's being too poor to adequately provide for the people I love and would like to give nice gifts to. It's work. It's not getting good sleep.

Wait, no it's not. It's just my own limitations.

Fastball special!

Hold your breath... it's here.

First thoughts:

Beast looks, well although I think Kelsey Grammer is well cast as Beast, Nightcrawler's makeup looked better. And where is Nightcrawler? Off to the circus or the priesthood, I suppose. Based on the ending of the last movie, I was under the impression that the storyline was going to be the Phoenix saga (how the hell will they work in the whole Madeleine Pryor thing in 2 hours?), but I think that dramatic tension would've been heightened if they did not reveal Jean Grey. And is Shadowcat going to be Rogue's rival for Iceman's affections? 'Cause you know, the only one for Shadowcat is Colossus. But then again, we all know that Rogue really belongs with Gambit, and he's not even in the movie! Plus, I peeked at imdb, and saw that a young version the White Queen had been cast, which doesn't really make much sense to me, and speaking of bluebloods, Angel's neck is looking a little reddish. Vinnie Jones will totally rock Juggernaut, and Olivia Williams will make an excellent Moira MacTaggert.

Okay, sorry. If you didn't understand what I'm referring to at all, it's okay. I'm just a little bit of a fangirl here.

Trite Winter Observations

It's nice today, but it has been cold and rainy. The wife is fighting off something. I've managed to resist the early cold/flu. Let's hope my fortune continues.

As Autumn bleeds into Winter and the world is colored grey and purple and black, I realize that I have experienced a little of the old Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD). The good thing is that I seem to have my moods more under control.

I am a child of the Sun. There is no denying my affinity for the heat and warmth. California provides this ideal environment most of the time to almost all of her children. Winter is an affront to the perfect climate, but only from my limited perspective.

All things wax and wane. Winter is as necessary as Spring.

I should not fear my moods. They are as wild as I let them be.
