turpsToday has been one of goodness. First, Sunday is the day I can sleep in, so it was half ten when I hauled my lazy ass out of bed. Then we dropped off Tex at mam's and went out for dinner, followed by a movie, two movies even. See, for a while we've been thinking of getting a cinema card. They're £11 a month and you can see as many movies as you like in any of the cineworld cinemas. As we have two pretty close to us it seemed to be a good deal, especially as you know, I actually get out now *g* So yeah, we signed up today and had to get pictures done for the cards. Man, they're terrible. I'm more smirking than smiling and James' is just as bad. He's grown a goatee lately, and that plus the t-shirt he had on, black with skull and cross bones saying too young to live, well. All he needed was a bandanna and he could be someone out of the local biker gang.
As Corey was with us we saw Chicken Little first. It was quiet funny in places and despite being a kids movie kept us all entertained. We left there and decided to drive to the other cinema. Arriving Date Movie was just about to start so we saw that. It was okay, I tend to like that kind of OTT humour, shame it was so thin on the ground. Not that it was a loss, I mean, the time would have been worth it just to see Corey in fits of laughter as the cat balanced on the toilet and made horrendous farting noise. He's a ten year old boy, that stuff is hilarious for him. The main guy also looked hot dressed as a female hooker, which really, I'm not supposed to find that hot at all!
Then it was home for a bath with a lush bathbomb that left the water purple with floating stars, very cool. That plus a face mask and I was a happy camper. So now I'm squeaky clean with soft skin, smell lovely and am reading LJ. What could be better? Oh, Supernatural soon, that's what! We tape then watch after so we can fast forward the adverts. Glee!
Thinking about Supernatural. Brock came home yesterday. The lady who arranged the cremation brought him. He's in a lovely box and she brought a card with his name in and sat talking to mam for ages. Mam was telling her how she still hears Brock in the house, his footsteps in the wooden hall floor and his breathing at night. Plus she can smell Brock farts. Which sounds weird but he was an old dog and had his own smell. The lady also looked at the chair he used to lie on and said, that's where he used to lie isn't it? because he's there now. Things like that freak me out, and if I'm ever up there and hear stuff like that I'll be joining him in the spirit world because I'd probably die of fright on the spot. Mam has comfort with it though, since he came home she's been so much happier, and in fact slept with his ashes last night and got the first sleep she'd had in a week. I don't know, it's obviously helping her but seeing the velvet pouch he's in makes me feel weird.
I sent Chris a link to my photobucket file where I'd saved a load of Brock pics. I made him cry too....sigh. But after I'd sent that link he sent me the e mail with that man with the huge dick again. Now last time it was sent as a blanket mail to his friends, and certain family. This time it was just to me with the subject Seen owt like this? I strongly suspect he's been nosing in the rest of my photobucket pics. Not that there's anything mega porny in there, but still. I was talking to mam about it and she was highly amused about what he'd sent me. She asked if I had anything porny I could send back, which, heck yeah I have. Not anything he'd like to see though. Because she said he'd never expect to get stuff like that from me. So see, all you doubters, I am seen as pure and innocent!
Yesterday, Katie, Corey's friend, came with a website for me. It was one where you could dress up celebrity dolls. Why she thought I'd be interested I don't know..... Anyway, she and Corey were playing on there most of yesterday. Then they went on the Sims and I had to laugh. Corey horrified Katie when they were creating Sims because he makes male sims that wear make-up. In fact, most of the Sims he creates are camp to the extreme. Katie was all, men don't wear make up, and couldn't understand the town he has going, which is a blend of gay and straight households. Not that he thinks of them that way, they just are, and if a guy falls in love with a guy, so be it. But yeah, that was my amusement when I was listening to them.
And that's it for this long and boring update ;)

Date: 2006-03-19 10:41 pm (UTC)Your brother cracks me up - you totally should send him something back. You'd shock him out of this little habbit of yours, I'm sure lol
And I loved the Katie & Corey story - you're raised that kid well, it shows *g*

Thank you :)
Your icon! I love how I know who they are now!

Our dog has ben dead for nearly 2 years, and I still think I hear her every now and then. Just little noises she made when walking through the kitchen, and stuff. It's just hard to let ho, I guess. *huggles you and your mom*
I'm glad you had such a nice day!!!!

Looks like Corey is educating his friends..not necessarily a bad thing! :D *hugs*

Brock was the family dog. Last Sunday night his legs went and he couldn't move them at all. He was put to sleep on Wednesday. I'm glad she's found comfort having him home. He was 18 and they'd been together all that time so she's been missing him so much.
It just amused me so much, listening to them talk. Katie's a lovely girl but a total girlie girl, and she was adamant men didn't do things like that *g*
*hugs you*
