Okay, so my whole "Post a couple times a week" goal didn't quite play out. I think it went as well as my "Eat less Nutty Bars" goal and my "Try to save gas by running on empty for several miles!!!" goal. Neeeeah...Doesn't work.
My excuse for not posting is probably because I've...uh...
Been working?
Sure, let's go with that!
I love my job at the vet clinic. But I probably haven't posted because I haven't really been on a rant long enough to type it and subject others to it. But oh well.
Okay, so last night...My family watched the Corpse Bride. You know, that Tim Burton movie. It's basically about this man betrothed to a woman he hasn't met, and then being dragged into this freak-Purgatory-like underworld where skeletons do dance numbers and he's suddenly married to another skeleton, who happens to not do dance numbers. Thank goodness.
So, at one point, it seems as though he's married and/or in a relationship to two women at once. He's only met one of the women for less than 5 minutes, and they're suddenly in love. Then he marries for the sake of it. What kind of message is this sending to our young children?? Just kidding, I'm sure the writers didn't mean to suggest a legal loosening including polygamous relationships under civil unions. Not at all.
Does this post have a point? Not really.
Maybe I could do another post on my experiences in the vet clinic. Yet that might be gross.
Lysol and vomit do not mix, people. I'm just saying.
Okay, so maybe my next post will be a little more constructive...And only watch the Corpse Bride if you enjoy alternative lifestyles and musicals with dead people. And if you dig the Tim Burton soundtrack deal, then yes, it's good stuff.
It's a Monday, what can I say...

Not to mention that one of Victor's 'wives' is dead. Yay! (Random spoilery note: is it true that Emily turns into a thousand butterflies at the end?) Oh well, I still want to see that movie anyways.
Last note: Philidelpha Chickens? You kill me. :D
(PS- Sandra Boynton made another new CD... um... I can't remember the title, but it's got a dog in it. And a song by Weird Al and the Spin Doctors. Cool, eh?)

Yeah, the movie is definately unique, and it's a change from the whole "Wooo a Disney movie about pigeons!!!11!!" Yuck. Corpse Bride is so much better. And yes, Emily does turn into a thousand butterflies. See, the Catholics had it all wrong. After purgatory, you spontaneously combust into a thousand insects! Woo!!
Dude...Weird Al on a Sandra Boynton CD? And a dog? I'm all over that.

I would vote for a vet clinic post! Gross is good. :P
