Happy Birthday Grandma

Breakfast and Movie

Since Chris was heading out of town for a few months we wanted to hang out one last time. Both of us are lovers of Fantasy so we went to go see The Spiderwick Chronicles. First we planned for him to come over around 10, I knew since he partied hard last night that he wouldn't make it.. but he did show up around 11. First thing first.... he had heard me talk about my toy room and wanted to see it first hand.. well I took him in my office/toy room overflow first and it was funny to see the look of surprise when I told him that this wasn't the toy room.. just the overflow room. Then we went into the toy room and like many before him his jaw dropped in amazement while we looked around for a bit. We then went to breakfast, we tried to find a cool little breakfast dive but since I'm still fairly new to the area we couldn't find anything and wound up at Denny's.

After breakfast we of course missed the first few showings so we had an hour and a half to kill. We drove to Borders and looked around for a bit.

About a half-hour before the movie started we drove to the theater, bought our tickets, some soda/water and sat down in the middle of the theater. It wasn't packed which was nice. The movie just flew by. This was a children’s book series made up of five books and they combined them into this one movie. It was a very fast pace and never slowed down. The effects were really good and the story was complete. When it was over we were both happy with it. It was a fun movie. After the movie we drove back to my pace where he met Harry and Daisy, we said our good-byes and good lucks and he was off. It was a fun morning/afternoon.

Goodbye and Good Luck Chris

It was Chris' last day. He is the Post Production Assistant and has been with us the past four months. Chris and I hit it off right away when he first started and our friendship grew. It's not often that you find co-workers that you want to continue a friendship with outside of work, but he is one of them. He is the sweetest nicest guy you will ever meet. He's very hard working and deserves all the success he finds. He is leaving us because he got a really good opportunity to write, produce, shoot and edit some webisodes for a swimming website. He will be missed at work, but our friendship will continue pass this job and for many years to come.

Tonight after work a few of us went out for some drinks (not that I drink). It was alot of fun. We went to a bar/restaurant in West Hollywood. I don't drink so it was fun to see Chris, Bryan, Laura and Matt get buzzed. I only stayed a few hours, as I was super tired from a long day in Online. It was a fun night.

Happy Valentine's Day

Today is Harry and my fourth Valentine's together. This year we decided not to get anything for each other. We are trying to save up funds for our wedding in August. We don't need one day to claim our love for each other.. we live it everyday. Happy Valentine's Day Sweetheart.

Big Brother is Back

Tonight started the ninth season of Big Brother. Yes I'm a fan of this reality show. I have seen every season of it. This years spin is the teamed up contestants into couples. They will play, vote, win and lose as a couple. Of course they are all very beautiful people.. will with one exception. The first episode was fun.. there are a few extra twist but this looks to be a fun season of Big Brother.

Monday Night TV

Tonight we watched the second to last episode of American Gladiators. I'm so glad it has been a success and NBC has picked it up for a second season. This total fluff tv but it's so much fun to sit back and enjoy. I hope to get tickets to watch it live from the second season.

Another great show on Monday is Kyle XY. It's in it's second season and the story is getting more and more invovled, but unlike Lost I'm not getting tired of all the questions. Plus Matt Dallas is yummy to look at with his no belly button washboard stomach.

And if that wasn't enough we also watch Terminator: The Sarah Conner Chronicles. It's on it's fourth episode and they keep getting better and better. This series has one of my favorites from Friday Summer Glua and she can kick some butt.

Monday's have some cool sci fi/fantasy TV

The Ready Room Podcast

For several years I have been a member and modirator of a sci fi and fantasy forum. It's fairly small but the people I have meet there are great. About a year ago we started a rpg (Roll Playing Game) that takes place in the Star Trek world. When we started I was first officer but quickly got bumped to Captain and started to run the game. Luckily I have a co-modirator now who helps me in running the game. Well we came up with a cool idea of keeping everyone informed of what's going on with the game.. we have decided to start doing a podcast called The Ready Room. I spent today finishing the editing on episode #3. They are so much fun to record as well as edit. If you want to check out the forums click on the link. Treks in Sci Fi
