We just got done watching Carrie. The original one. I don’t like movies featuring shy girls in high school hiding behind their long hair. For one good reason. I am glad I had a few friends though, otherwise high school would’ve been as bad as italian class was once Ellen moved to another class. And I dreaded that all the time.

And I watched Saw 5 this afternoon. Why have they made so many? And they aren’t done? So so silly. At least this one didn’t seem to be trying to overdo the gore of the previous ones like all the other ones have. Or maybe that’s because it wasn’t on a huge screen and so I could pick how much attention I was paying. I am really glad we didn’t go see that in the cinema though. Especially as it would’ve been my birthday movie. I know what my birthday ‘movie’ will be this year. They better show it at the Waterbury cinema or I will be very very grrr.

Today, in between watching 2 movies, I cleaned. A lot. I had an energy drink in the fridge, leftover from the Blogathon, so I took advantage of the extra energy it would provide. Was a good, tasty one that actually had an effect so that was useful. Now I feel like our whole place is sparkly clean and that is a fantabulous feeling.

There are quite often sirens going down the street we live on, being it is Main Street, but I always hate it when they suddenly stop their whining right outside this building. Freaks me out a tad. It happened again this afternoon. At first I thought someone had called the police on the incredibly obnoxious pack of teenage boys blasting music outside our kitchen window (and also right outside the window Jake works at all day downstairs) (but there wouldn’t have been the siren if that was the case. And they were blasting backstreet boys and cyndi lauper… annoying but at least it wasn’t sweary music) but when I looked out there were 2 ambulances and a police car. And there is always a moment of "is Jake ok?" although I knwo if he wasn’t someone would’ve come up here and told me so, probably even before the ambulance arrived. Turns out he thinks the same thing when they appear. There are a lot of elderly patrons of the restaurant, Jake tells me one of them had an ‘episode’ which is all he was told. Hope everyone is ok.

Yesterday there was a grasshopper in the house! It was little and extra cute. Was hard to catch but then once I did, and got it outside, it just happily sat in my hand for a few minutes. I love cute insects like that. Not sure I’ve ever encountered a grasshopper like that before. Or if I’ve ever seen a living one before. Was nice.

I need a haircut!
