Ce weekend
Heading down to Wats this weekend. I love how I'm planning my weekend on a Monday night. Don't get much better than this. We'll be in town for a high school friend's wedding reception at the legion of all places. A great time will most certainly be had by all I'm sure. This dude and his wife got married at his parents cottage in May, and it was a small wedding with mostly family, so now they're going to pull out all the stops and have a more 'twentysomething' oriented partay. When I asked his mom what to get him and his wife for a gift, she replied, towels. How lame, I mean absorbent. I am not bringing towels to the legion. They're getting a gift card for The Bay and that's final.
We will also be in town to celebrate my grandmother's 149th birthday. I mean 186th or something. Happy Birthday GG!

Movieholes
This weekend I finally saw doc King Corn, which I was corning (read: jonesing) to see for a while. I did indeed enjoy it. Rotten Tomatoes seems to be right on in its rating of this flick, so we're in accordance on all corns, I meant fronts. I'm really getting corned away here. I mean carried.
In other movie news, Bron and I rented Dead Snow. What a terrific flick. My zombie intestines were all aflutter with this one. I love how we had the option of watching it in English, instead of its native Norwegian. And yes, I'm completely technically backward because I never knew this feature existed in DVD world, although Bron is the one who has issues with subtitles, pas moi. I recommend this one for suresies.
To cap off my Sunday night, I decided to finally order some towels from L.L. Bean. I'm quite a fan of most of their goods, but after experiencing the loveliness of their Premium Cotton handtowels and bathmats (have two of each)(yes, I'm a mid-western US housewife), I was def going back for more, esp since I still have some fundage existing on my last-year's L.L. Christmas gift card. But, upon selecting my new natural coloured towels (I know, I'm so 'out there'), and deciding to get these pooches MONOGRAMMED, uh I realized that they only provide navy thread for light coloured towels and white for dark coloured towels. Ewww, navy? Nein thanks. I would never want to see a navy and natural towel in or around my home. A shame, really. I was prepared to drop the $12 to have both towels monogrammed. I just wanted to be whimsical and get "Bron" and "Kathryn" towels. But that won't be happening any time soon with navy at the thread helm. I guess I'll still order the towels, but I'm really not feeling the juice as much anymore. I'll give it a few days and see how I'm feeling. I'll update.
