I rather liked this movie. Brian did, too (he even managed to stay awake for the entire thing despite doing manual labor for me all day). It was the story of a young man (played by Joseph Gordon-Levitt) who is diagnosed with cancer. Normally not the kind of movie you might want to watch, but it was a dramedy. So, where’s the funny part come in? Well, mostly from Seth Rogen, who plays the best friend of the main character. This movie was one of the few instances where Seth Rogen didn’t get on my nerves. Actually there wasn’t anything about this movie that I didn’t like.
ham pot pie
I made up a slow-cooker ham pot pie recipe, which we had for supper this evening. My Mom sent home a ham bone with us yesterday (along with some other delicious Easter leftovers), so I was trying to figure out something to do with it. It was pretty good and was made even better with homemade noodles. Yum!
harry potter and the chamber of secrets
Jake and I watched the 2nd movie in the Harry Potter series last night. It’s interesting to see how they pulled off all of the cool things from the book. So far, they’ve done an excellent job with the special effects. Much like with the first movie, I think I saw most of this one before. I’m looking forward to the later movies where this isn’t the case.
on the loose
I let Lizzy out this afternoon and when I went to let her back in, both she and the tie-out cable were gone. Yikes! So Jake and I scoured the neighborhood and he found her (thank goodness) on the street that runs parallel to ours. The tie-out cable connection has since been reinforced.
altoona curve
The three of us got to go to the opening night of the Altoona Curve tonight thanks to one of our employees winning the Curve’s 2012 Opening Day T-Shirt contest (thanks, Katherine!). Not only did we get tickets to the game, but the tickets were for one of their luxury suites. Very nice. Most of the people she invited sat outside, but what’s the point in that when you have a suite?!? I’m not a baseball fan, but if you’re going to watch a game, this is definitely the way to go.
