Summer Project Numero Uno.

I like to be busy. This summer I have a number of things I would like to accomplish. I'm starting on that list today.

1. Make curtains for the bedroom.

Mind you, I have never actually sewn anything in my life. I'm just going to wing it; we'll see how it goes.

**Edit: I am such a liar! I HAVE made something, two somethings! I made Christmas stockings for Steve and me this year. Pshaw, I'm a pro. These curtains will be a cinch.

It doesn't hurt that I secretly love this song.

I think I should move to Britain. After all, they do have talent.

To my people who love dogs more than some (most) people.

Running sounds.

I'm training to run a marathon. Usually I run with a friend, Suzanne. However, this week I will have to run some by myself, including a seven mile trek on Saturday. I'm thinking that the key to my future success is going to be Omar---my trusty iPod Nano.

Compiling a list of songs that will encourage me, keep me going, convince me to keep putting one foot in front of the other has become a difficult task. I need upbeat music....

What are you running to?


[I hate ending sentences with the word "to," but how stupid would "To what are you running?" Ugh, lame]

Mulholland drive me off a cliff

Movie Monday was a WASTE of time tonight. Steve and I watched Mulholland Drive. At the moment neither of us has a freakin clue what happened in the movie. I blame Steve for putting it in the Netflix que....although he was mislead by the Netflix summary.
Do.Not.Waste.Your.Time.

Movie Monday, 1954

Tonight we watched On the Waterfront. It was the 1954 Oscar-winner for Best Picture. Pretty good. Young Marlon Brando is cute and looks human.

Is it wrong to constantly think of food?

This Friday my awesome brothers and sisters in law along with Steve and I are going on a triple date! So fun! We have plans to see the X-Men Origins Wolverine movie and eat Hibachi (a word I cannot ever spell correctly as politely reminded by my squiggly red line).

I am totally pumped for several reasons.
#1. I love X-Men. Seriously. The first time I ever saw X-Men (mind you this was only 3 years ago) I watched the entire first movie and put in the second movie immediately after the credits rolled. I cannot honestly think of another time when I have watched two movies back-to-back. I don't even think I took a bathroom break. AND I so badly wanted to see X-Men 3 in the theater, I went by myself! It is the only movie I have been to alone.
#2. I love to hang out with my Taylor family. We (mostly they) are super fun and super sarcastic. I love it. Good times always.
#3. WE. ARE. EATING. HIBACHI. (damn you, red line!) Just knowing this is going to get me through the week. (sad, isn't it?)
Plus I hope our chef looks as excited as the dude in the picture above.

Alisa mentioned these plans, I guess in the middle of last week....I haven't stopped thinking about the hibachi since.

What is wrong with me?

ps: Here's a Taylor family photo...at our best, no doubt. When I think about how Faith looks now then look at this picture, it makes me giggle.
