March 31st, 2006

have you ever seen the movie, The Three Amigos? Starring Steve Martin, Chevy Chase, and Martin Short, It’s great. Here’s the plot, as taken from here:
When silent film stars Lucky Day, Dusty Bottoms and Ned Nederlander get fired, they take a job offer from Mexico: Doing a show with El Guapo, supposedly the most famous actor there. Traveling there in good hope for good money, they arrive only to learn soon that El Guapo is not an actor, but a cruel gang leader suppressing people. He abducts the mayor’s beautiful daughter Carmen (to be his wife) in revenge for the people’s cry for help. Now, all hopes of the village folks rest on the weak shoulders of three minor-talented actors, who can’t just walk off the set this time.

Ahh…late 80s movies.

[edit] By: Esteban
Yes, I have seen it and it’s like one of the best movies EVER… and I can edit other peoples posts?

Freaky. It’s like a wiki-blog.

FFAF: Summer

March 31st, 2006

Hi, I’m Carrie from The Queen of Rambles. I’m trying to hit all the Free For All Friday sites today and I’m running out of things to say!

Spring! Summer! I love spring, but am not so much of a summer person. Give me a good 75 degree day and I’m golden. Turn it up to 85 and I’m cranky. Turn it up to 95 and you don’t want to be in the same room with me.

My mom is supposed to fly out to DC to visit me this spring (let’s not kid anyone here, she’s coming to see her grandchild not me) so I want to take her around to see all the sites. I love walking around the National Zoo. I would like to see the baby Giant Panda but I think the line is too long.

There’s just one problem with this little plan.

My baby HATES riding in the car seat. It takes about 45 minutes to drive into DC, so can we really handle 45 minutes of hysterical screaming? I think we’ll have to drive to the nearest metro station and take the train in. My mom is from a very small town and has already told me she’s not going to ride the metro because terrorists are going to bomb it and she won’t be able to escape. I guess she can walk.

I’ve only lived in the DC area a year and a half and there is still a ton I’d like to see. I would really like to go out to Mount Vernon and see the old Washington estate. I’ve been on a few walking tours and had no idea that Washington, DC was a major slave area. I don’t know how anyone can work in the hot summer conditions here. What a horrible way to live. I get cranky if I have to walk from my car to Target when it gets muggy and hot in July. I guess they just would have had to kill me. Or maybe people back then were made of tougher stuff. I admit I’m a wimp.

here’s the info:

free for all friday is a day where i have YOU post on my journal instead of me. (and don’t think you can get out of participating in this if you “have nothing to say”… since that never stops me from posting random stuff of no real value on my blog. heh)

i’ll give you a suggested topic, but you have the freedom to post about anything.

now. if you have a login name and password (in order to post comments on my page), you can log in with that info. if you do not have a login name and password already, log in with…
usename: guest
password: freeforall

click on “write” (on the left hand side)… create a post… and click “publish”

sidenote if you are one of my friends reading this on xanga or lj, you will have to log in to my blog on everymoment.org to do this.

ok. now here’s the suggested topic. spring/summer: so.. the weather is warming up… what are your plans for this spring/summer? or what is your favorite part of spring/summer?

ready.. set.. GO!

edit i’m leaving my ‘free for all’ open on friday AND saturday.. so post away… i’m busy all of tomorrow so make my page fun and interesting for when i get back to my computer -P

The Five Love Languages

My primary love language is probably
Physical Touch
with a secondary love language being
Quality Time.

Complete set of results

Physical Touch:   11
Quality Time:   7
Words of Affirmation:   6
Receiving Gifts:   4
Acts of Service:   2

Information

Unhappiness in relationships, according to Dr. Gary Chapman, is often due to the fact that we speak different love languages. Sometimes we don’t understand our partner’s requirements, or even our own. We all have a “love tank” that needs to be filled in order for us to express love to others, but there are different means by which our tank can be filled, and there are different ways that we can express love to others.

Take the quiz

i think everyone needs to take this quiz!

frustrations..

March 14th, 2006

ok. so i’m gonna post quick while i’m waiting for photoshop to finish “applying shape blur”

the past couple of days have been very frustrating for me. sometimes i’m not even sure why i’m frustrated or down… like it’s the weather or something. but it’s not. i saw a robin on my front lawn today… the sun has been showing through the clouds lately… and it only just recently got cold again… *shrugs* what gives?

oh and since it has been such a long time since i posted… i have to share. last weekend i got to play on the worship team at elmbrook church. it was SO cool to play in ‘big church’… and such an honor to be playing with some of the most amazing musicians! i’m so thankful for God’s gift of music… i found myself just listening to my in-ear monitor… thinking.. “wow.. it’s better than a cd… and i’m on stage with these people. wow.”

then after that amazing highlight of sunday morning.. i went to work. yes. on sunday night. i had to get a lot of work done on the april newsletter for work. and what was more frustrating than being at work from 3-9:30pm on a sunday night? the fact that i still didn’t get everything done.

monday rolls around… and guess what.. still no finished newsletter. (now mind you.. it’s not all me.. it was just a combination of things) and then later, feeling let down.. yet again.

this morning rolls around. i wake up to an extremely cold room… so now my throat hurts. i eat some leftover chinese food for breakfast… and am excited to get to work early to finally finish this stinkin newsletter… and… where’s my keys? i *KNOW* i left them hanging up last night.. because my car was the last one in the driveway.. and i was parking everyone else in. so i know i left my keys hanging by the door. my car was moved.. so yes.. my keys were hanging up there this morning when someone moved my car to get their car out of the driveway… but.. where are my keys? i need to get to work!

so luckily sam (jenn’s boyfriend.. who lives in minnesota but is visiting for the week) was able to give me a ride to work. i feel so out of control with no keys for my car.. my apartment… or my work.

alright. photoshop is finally finished blurring that image i was working on. so i must get back to work on this thing. this will be a great stress out of my life once this gets sent to the printer.

i’ll post again soon.. cuz i left out a lot of really great things that have happened in my life as of late. plus i have really awesome pictures from friday night up at wisconsin dells. -)
