We just got back from Chicago..it was a good weekend…we have pictures and such to post later…

I wanted to post about Cass’ upcoming show. It will be Friday the 31st, 8:00 at the Pontiac Coffee House. If you want to here some good live music come out and bring a friend. There’s no cover, so its a fee night.

first, to the printer to drop off some files

Then to The Balloon Closet (which has moved, it’s down town now..)

Then a little trip to the Dollar Tree..no picture of that one

then a little trip to Fayetteville

Then to OOPS, with must have the biggest chair in all of Tontitown

Then on to Hobby Lobby

Next to my favorite place, the backbone of american economy and culture, the mall

Then to Toys R Us and Barns and Noble

why? i just needed 20 little squishy stress balls shaped like TVs…i didn’t find any.

So, I finally watched this much-loved trilogy last month, at the urging of Ben. I have a few thoughts.

1. The setting. I need to preface these thoughts with saying that I watched all 3 videos on our VHS player through our 13” tv screen. Great sound system though.
2. The Acting. I found it slightly less than superb. Save for Darth & Han Solo…no wonder they went on to make it big.
3. Princess Leia. It was really, really hard for me to not picture her hauling around a large bazooka. (If you’ve seen The Blues Brothers, you’ll know what I’m talking about.)
4. Chewy. I found slightly more annoying than lovable.
5. R2-D2 & C3-PO…probably my favorites.

I’m glad I can finally say I’ve watched them now, and it did have a pretty good ending. I’ll admit that I enjoyed it.

i have started posting a few pictures on my other blog (www.poolhouseblue.com) again. I have not really felt like taking pictures for a long time, but im starting to enjoy it again. I would love to know what you think of some of my pictures…i have thought about trying to sell prints, but i have no idea if they have any appeal past my own personal enjoyment. I don’t need to sell pictures but it might give me a reason to take more, and if i could fund a new lens or two that might be nice.
