Oh, and also this...

@theseanhayes Sean Hayes

Just to let everyone know...I'm shooting a movie in Atlanta - "The Three Stooges" - written & directed by the Farrelly Bros. I play 'Larry'.

5 May via Twitter for iPhone

I'm so excited to see Sean Hayes play my Great Grandfather. I think he will do an excellent job. I also think that the world could use some light hearted laughs, and the Three Stooges and the Farrelly Bros are a great combination to bring just that.

If you are not too familiar with the Three Stooges, I highly recommend 'Disorder in the Court'.

No, TV? What, I have to read?

The PSN is down. (that would be Playstation Network, for those of you who were wondering.) This also means that a lot of our games are unplayable. Netflix is on hold. What do I do with my nights, you may be wondering.... I study!

No, wait. That's what I should be doing. I read. I just finished reading Charlaine Harris's latest in the Sookie Stackhouse novels. Dead Reckoning. It was a great read. There wasn't a whole love of sex but plenty of the violence this time around. There was a lot of faery business, vampire business, and secrets unfolding. As always, Harris gives Sookie such great wit, especially when she is facing her demons. (Literally!) Sookie finds a letter that addresses some of her Grandmother's not so well known past and a token that has Sookie wondering the true intentions of her faery house guests. The end leaves you with a few questions, wondering what will happen in Sookie's love life, family life and work life. Are you sure the next book isn't coming out next month?

Look for True Blood season 4 to come out at the end of this month on DVD and Blu Ray. Also, Season 5 starts up again this summer! Yay!

Free Comic Book Day!!!

So, what did you go out to get?
We didn't make it out this year. The little people aren't feeling awesome. There is always next year, though.

February, March....

These months pretty much consisted of school, school, amd more school. Some highlights include:

• For Valentine's Day, I had a candlelit dinner with my children. We ate heart shaped pepperoni pizzas. We made them together. My kids thought it was the coolest thing in the world to eat in the dark with only the light from the candles.
• I had a urinalysis lab class. I actually loved looking at pee under a microscope. Add some dye, and it's pretty! (Call me weird, call me gross... lol!)
• Had a pharmacy class taught by a chiropractor...don't get me started.
  
• The Leprechauns visited us on St. Patrick's Day and left gold and chocolates. Then we had corned beef, cabbage, carrots and potatoes and soda bread. It was delicious, and both Christy and Wesley had seconds.
  
• The last weekend in March, I went to Newport Beach with some of my very best friends. It was good to get away. We saw Conan, Mark Christopher Lawrence and Mickey Mouse. What more could a girl ask for?
• April Fools I posted on Facebook that I was engaged to my friend, Deven. Sorry, APRIL FOOLS! I'm not even dating anyone. So if you were hoping for that gig, you can now submit your application! ;-)

Tonight I am going to Christy's author fair to see what stories and creations she has made in kindergarten. My children never cease to amaze me in how creative and fantastic they are.

I am doing ok. Not great, but okay. There's alot emotionally going on, but I think it's mostly hormones and circumstances that are out of my control. So, I'm dealing. I guess.
Well, there's some brief posts to hold you over for now!

January: Sundance.

I get so mad at myself for not blogging sometimes. But, life goes on, and I get over it. But then I miss blogging again. Well, so much has been going on.
In January, I had the amazing opportunity to go back up to Sundance Film Festival and work with some awesome people. I also got to see several amazing (and some not-so-amazing) films. Some I have already signed up on Amazon.com for alerts. The films I loved most and highly recommend were: (In no particular order)

Buck

Page One: A Year Inside the New York Times

The Salesman

The Details

I couldn't find a clip for this, but it's a great film starring Tobey Maguire. After 10 years of marriage Jeff (Maguire) and his wife Nealy have a son, a nice home and a marriage that has lasted. After laying the sod for his backyard, a family of raccoons repeatedly tear up his backyard. This leads to poison, an affair, some crazies, and some hilarious moral holes. It's a must see.

Margin Call

Okay, couldn't find a clip for this either. This guy Sullivan (Zachary Quinto) is basically a rocket scientist working as an entry-level analyst for a company in the financial industry. He finds some information that could potentially be the downfall of the company. It's pretty fast moving and very interesting.

Perfect Sense

With Ewan McGregor and Eva Green, I knew this was going to be a great film.

In A Better World

These were a few of my favorite films. Perfect Sense and In A Better World were probably my most favorite. But all of the films were so well done.

Stop Being Mean!

You know what I've been noticing lately? MEANNESS. People, stop being mean. I'm pretty sure, that by now, you've realized that many people have different beliefs and opinions than you do. This does not make them wrong. It does not make them sick. Unless we are talking pedophilia, drowning puppies or murder without a just cause, I'm pretty sure you can just LET IT GO!
It's okay. Just take a deep breath and let it GO! You know what I mean? Like the lady who dresses differently than you. You may think it's ugly, or maybe she's fat. But you don't have to say anything to her about it.......or at all. I need to work on it too. It's easy to point out the things we don't like in other people. It allows us to hide from our own flaws. It's not just pointing out other people's flaws I'm talking about, this philosophy of LET IT GO also can apply to someone else's belief system, their likes and dislikes, etc. Unless they are forcing their ways upon you, is there really true need to dis them?
