Back to the Future and Care Bears

Yesterday after work I went to pick up an old friend I had not spent much time with in several years. We went to Rooftop for dinner and a drink. The view was wonderful. I have truly loved being able to go to this hang out spot in Mac over the past four years, it is great.


Then we went back and decided that since I had only seen the first Back to the Future movie (only a few months ago)


That we should watch the 2nd. It was great! So very funny.


After I took my friend back I decided that I really wanted to be crazy and stay up...yes it was 10:30 and WAY past my bed time...I watched the third movie and it by far was my favorite.


Then at about 12:30 a.m. I finally crawled into bed, I was very thankful I did not have to work tell 10 this morning so I would be able to sleep in. Jared and I talked for a little while (he was able to fix the battery on the car which was really good. Maybe later I will tell you the funny story about that)

This morning I was able to sleep in, it was AMAZING! I was even blessed with not having any of my crazy dreams last night. It has been getting really old having extremely intense dreams for the last few weeks; I wake up all worn out and tired from the activity in the dream. Last night was night and restful.

After getting ready for work I had a little spare time before it was time to ride my bike to work so I turned on the TV and to my surprise the Care Bears were on!! I used to think they were so cute and sweet. On this episode Funshine Bear learned he could still have fun even without his patch.

Julie & Julia Update

I am so freaking excited that today is going to be a slowish day at work. I have posted before about the Julie & Julia movie coming out on August 7th, well this weekend I found the book and I am about half way into it and loving it. Then this morning I found the original blog by Julie Powell. I am just stoked I can hardly contain myself. If you want to nerdy like me go to the following link and then on the calendar go to August 25th 2002 to start from the beginning. Julie /Julia Project

Julie & Julia

I saw the preview of the movie Julie & Julia this afternoon and I am in love. I am so excited for the movie to come out on August 7th.


Julia Child (Meryl Streep) and Julie Powell (Amy Adams) are featured in writer-director Nora Ephron's adaptation of two bestselling memoirs: Powell's Julie & Julia and My Life in France, by Julia Child with Alex Prud'homme. Based on two true stories, Julie & Julia intertwines the lives of two women who, though separated by time and space, are both at loose ends...until they discover that with the right combination of passion, fearlessness and butter, anything is possible. Written by Columbia Pictures
