Today is another webinar day at work. I'm tired of them. However, I snagged today's Favorite Friday before the 'no streaming' rule went into effect. It is the trailer for the new Muppet movie. Everyone in my house is anxiously awaiting it's arrival. It looks awesome. (Though I doubt they will reference the awesome sketches from The Muppet Show...like Miss Piggy wearing discount medical uniforms in Veterinarian's Hospital with Rowlf and Janice.) Yay Muppets!
Steel can be hot.
Sometimes you just have to laugh. I found a website for a company that sells steel buildings. Usually these types of things are used for storage of large equipment. Cars, planes, boats, etc. Scrolling through the pictures of things the company believes their structures could be used for, I came across pictures of classrooms and workshops where there's an adult teaching quite a few kids. Why did it make me laugh? Mostly because I can't imagine that heating or air conditioning would work very well in a steel building. So it would be freezing cold in the winter and unbearably hot in the summer. These types of buildings are used for storage because equipment can usually handle temperatures that the human body cannot.
Then again, maybe there some trick to these buildings that I don't know about.
Procrastination takes over
I should be trying to find a new summer look for the website. Instead, I find myself drawn to m5 extreme reviews. Why am I so intrigued by things like this? Most people would just shrug and go about their business. Not me. I delve into the websites trying to find what makes them so interesting for other people. I need a new hobby....
Christmas Cards in June?
Would you believe that we are already getting catalogs for holiday cards? Who buys their holiday cards this far in advance? Everyone I know would lose them by the time Christmas came around! I think that the card companies should send around the holiday catalogs around September. The beginning of the year should be focused on a different holiday...like Independence Day or something. That would make much more sense.
I am not all that sporty
Dance season is now over. We had recital yesterday, which means we are done until September. I keep thinking of other hobbies I'd like to revisit. Back in high school, I used to do a bit of archery and I enjoyed it a lot. Unfortunately, archery equipment tends to be pretty expensive so I haven't had a chance to get back into the sport. My husband has shown an interest in trying it though. Perhaps I could take another look at it this summer as something we could do together. Date night archery style!
Delayed Favorite Friday
We're running some webinars at work today so, alas, we are all banned from streaming. That means that today's Favorite Friday will have to wait until I get home tonight. Also, I should be finally finishing up Liar's Game this afternoon. If all goes as planning, there will be a brand spankin' new review on Monday. I know I keep promising you new reviews and not delivering. I apologize. Feel free to beat me soundly with your geeky audio and video cables....just not the hard metal parts please!
Now to try to sleep....
I hate when I get thoughts stuck in my head right before bedtime. There was a commercial on television for ATV Wheels or something. I don't understand the attraction of riding on ATVs. Especially since a lot of people get hurt very badly or killed on them. Is it really worth your life to drive a rather heavy vehicle very fast? I don't get it!
Binoculars are cool
I don't think I've ever owned a good pair of binoculars. A pair of steiner binoculars would have been cool to have when we were at the beach a few years ago. My daughter could have looked out at the dolphins and the boats. I don't think we're planning on going to the beach again any time soon but maybe I'll buy a pair just to have around. Maybe she'd like to use them to look at the hot air balloons in the sky.
Squee!
Alas, I am no closer to finishing Liar's Game. However, my husband and I got tickets to a screening of Green Lantern showing tonight. That means that you will have a review tomorrow...it just won't be a jdorama review. I'm sure you will forgive me. On an unrelated note, I'm having skin problems yet again. Time to look at epiduo or something. Maybe I'll finally give that Proactive stuff a try. Anyone ever use that?
It's how long?!
I really truly thought that I would finish Liar's Game yesterday so that I could have a review for you today. Then I found out that the final episode is something like 2 1/2 hours long instead of the normal 45 - 90 minutes. At this rate, I won't be able to finish it until Wednesday! Who thought they needed to recap the entire series? So, I apologize. You will need to wait a few more days for my review. While you wait, go browse some funny tshirts. Maybe they will help you pass the time.
