Twilight: New Moon

I went to see New Moon this afternoon. I loved it. It depicted the novel pretty much exactly as I saw it in my head as I read the book. This book was my least favorite of the four, but I enjoyed the movie better than I did the novel. I thought it was so much better than Twilight, the movie. Definitely give it a chance. Even if you haven't read the novels!

And now, a friend of mine is offering a contest, giving away Twilight swag.

Check out her cool stuff:

After a fabulously magical weekend, we are headed home. The wutz had a great time and so did we.

Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party was just as wonderful this year as it was the last. And in keeping with tradition, nearly every ride I was on either broke down or stopped. I am starting to get a complex about it. The worst was a breakdown about halfway through the Haunted Mansion with the 3 year old wutz in the doom buggy with us. Oy. But at the end of the ride he declared, "That wasn't too scary!" That's muh boy!

Happiest place on earth with the grumpiest kid on the planet

The wutz has been uncharacteristically grumpy today, but we have nearly survived the day. We only have 45 minutes left on it at least.

And on another positive note, the castle looks gorgeous all trussed up for Christmas.

But if i drink one more cup of hot chocolate i am gonna hork. And that won't be so festive.

As always, the socks sell it...

The one good thing about Wednesday...

What is wrong with this picture?

I had to park next to a small throng of protesters when I went to get my yummy, delicious cyclone shrimp from Jonah's today at lunch. Of course, the protesters were attempting to rally the troops against government mandated health care. Blah blah. Lots of the signs had statements about being informed and being angry.

But the one that amused me the most was the one that was so informed, she didn't know how to spell her own profession correctly:

My Emancipation Proclamation aka Save the Tatas

Last week I was nagged, poked, prodded, and cajoled into snapping a picture of my tatas for Twitter's Boobie Wednesday or whatever the hell they call it. The purpose is, of course, to promote breast cancer awareness. Since i hate the color pink, snapping the pic was a helluva lot easier to swallow then wearing their pink swag.

Today my tatas were featured on the the Boob Emancipation Project!

Check me out:

I've been Emancipated. Okay, well my boobs have been at least.
