Blood

An all time favorite of mine. I could watch it pretty much every day.

The Graveyard Book

It was wonderful.

Wheeeee

My Braves won last night. It doesn't truly count, because it was an inter-league game against the Yankees, but we still won.

Pretty cool that I got to see the Yankees play, the crowd's response to A Rod was ridic.

I got to see Tommy Hanson pitch, my brother says he'll be the next big thing. No runs allowed last night, that makes for a pretty good game, I'd say.

Soriano relieved him, and that's cool too. Diaz made a brief appearance (swoon, too bad he's married.) Chipper looked old, and I still miss Smoltz, Lopez, and A Jones. McCann hit a homer, and you just don't see that happen every day. If he keeps it up, maybe I won't miss Lopez so much.

All in all, a great night. Even if I did spill barbeque sauce all over my boob.

Well said... but we must cultivate our garden.

Ode to Tanqueray

Dear Tanqueray,
I love you. Did you know that? You're smoother than anyone I know, and you taste delicious with tonic and a lime. You're always there for me, and you never disappoint (unlike half of my ex-boyfriends.)
Smooches,
Nikki

48 Hour Film Project

The 48 Hour Film Project is, in their own words, " a wild and sleepless weekend in which you and a team make a movie—write, shoot, edit and score it—in just 48 hours. On Friday night, you get a character, a prop, a line of dialogue and a genre, all to include in your movie. 48 hours later, the movie must be complete. Then it will show at a local theater, usually in the next week. "

The coolest thing? They go on tour (they'll be in Atlanta June 26-28) and a friend of mine living in Jacksonville participated. You can visit his Production company, Somebody Call an Ambulance Productions here.

When I say I've "shown"

At that gallery, I meant

"Shown up for work there"

Uphill Battle

Ok, but seriously. Last night at Bootcamp, we pushed a Jeep up a mild incline, two people at a time. I feel every muscle in my body, which is a good thing, because when I went bikini shopping this morning, I was pretty excited about the results from one month of bootcamp classes!

The world is governed more by appearances than realities, so that it is fully as necessary to seem to know something as to know it.

Museums On Us

If you live in one of these states, and are a Bank of America customer, this one's for you.

Did you know that on the first Saturday and Sunday of each month, you get free entry to a whole bunch of museums, just with your ID and Bank of America card?

For example, because I live in Atlanta, I could, theoretically, go to the Atlanta History Center, the Fernbank Museum, the Atlanta Botanical Garden, Zoo Atlanta, or Millenium Gate. This weekend. For free. And if I happened to be in New York that weekend, I could go to the Met, the Bronx Zoo, the New York Aquarium, or the Whitney? Sadly for my hometown of West Palm Beach, there's just the South Florida Science Museum. But still.

That is cool.

This pretty much says it all:
