I wasn't planning on even writing this tonight, but one thought about my tearful readers, heartbroken by the fact that they would have to survive one week without my profound prose and amazingly potent sentiments, brought the reality home to me. The blog must go on! So I am writing while sleep deprived and with dry scratchy eyes after the 2:45 marathon that was Avatar in 3-D IMAX style.
So I'll start with Avatar. It's awesome. Watch it. I've heard that people are saying that special effects are being used as surrogates for...well, you know. A plot. And in this movie that's 100% true. But it's also 100% worth it. It's like looking at a piece of artwork with all of its colors and whatnot. Except this painting has a huge helicopters vs. pterodactyls battle.
That said, it's necessary for me to recount the horror of this past Sunday. AKA the worst day of football ever. I went over to my awesome neighbors' house to watch the games. I was with my mom, a Packers fan, my neighbor, and my 'brother', both 49ers fans. And we watched all three games because they were all at the same time and my neighbors have like the ultimate uberfan superawesome package for football. So all went well, we departed for a party at a friend's house. Then it hit the fan. One after another, our teams fell like the valiant Spartan warriors at Thermopylae. The 49ers fell to a relentless Eagles attack, my Broncos lost on a last minute touchdown pass by the worst and largest of NFL quarterbacks, and the Packers lost on a literal last second touchdown that was pretty much the best thrown ball of the season by any player on any team. Oh and not to mention that the divisional rivals of the Broncos and 49ers both won. The only redeeming factor of the day was the Sunday Night Football meltdown of Brett Favre. And his coach hates him now.
*Deep breath.* Wow, I really needed to get that off my chest. Other than that, it's just great to be home. My present to you: more shopping time and less blog reading! Merry Christmas, Happy Hannukah, blah blah blah.
