I can smell summer...

Summer is fast approaching :). I have fun pictures from St. Louis that I'll post soon here if I can ever find the battery charger for my camera. Also fun spring pictures of the fam are on there too.

Finally got my acceptance letter to U of Akron! So I'm going to see a guidance counselor later this week or next to sign up for a couple classes this summer!

On a side note. My Easter dress is awesome.
Another side note: Stupid Old Navy scheduled me to work from 12-7:30 Easter day. So that's annoying. Hopefully I can get out of it. If not, thanks Old Navy, for ruining an awesome holiday.

Sherlock Holmes - Rachel McAdams

So I haven't actually finished this movie yet, but it deserves a post already. That should tell you how awesome this movie is (at least so far... movies have an uncanny knack for disappointing me with their endings). Rachel McAdams plays Irene Adler. Now, not reading any of the stories about Sherlock Holmes and only having a vague description of who he is and what the story is about, I take Irene Adler as someone that Mr. Holmes admires greatly, and may even love. Her wit seems to challenge even Mr. Holmes.

No wonder I like her character so much. Wit gets me every time. So anyway, she's so ridiculously bad ass, and I say that because I really can not think of any other way to explain it. If I didn't like Rachel McAdams before, which I did, I definitely am in love with her acting skills now.

I guess the only thing I'm really not a fan of is the Blackwood, rising from the grave, black magic, stuff. I mean, maybe it's a traditional Sherlock Holmes story that I'm just not familiar with and perhaps I should read the books about him. The story behind what Holmes is solving is just not my cup of tea. Perhaps more on this subject will come when I finish the movie.

Also- Started the Godfather. Which in itself is ridiculously long, we'll see how THAT goes.

"Life is rarely about what happened; it's mostly about what we think happened.
-Chuck Klosterman 


... I swear I'm going back to work now. Really.
Anybody who says they are a good liar obviously is not, because any legitimately savvy liar would always insist they're honest about everything.
-Chuck Klosterman

Ok Ok, So I have an obsession with Chuck Klosterman at this point in time. He is very witty, I can't help it! Wit gets me every time. So, I have set aside "My Sister's Keeper" and can not put this one down! Currently reading "Sex, Drugs, and Cocoa Puffs." Which is, mainly, a collection of essays about pop culture. If I had the book right in front of me, than I would copy my favorite part down. It needs to be exactly right.

But alas, I do not. It's something about John Cusack, and the quote that is listed a few blogs earlier. There is more to come with this quote. Perhaps I'll update later.

For now, I'll leave with another witty quote, and perhaps go back to TAPCO and the endless array of phone calls that keep coming in.

"You used to be able to tell the difference between hipsters and homeless people. Now, it's between hipsters and retards. I mean, either that guy in the corner in orange safety pants holding a protest sign and wearing a top hat is mentally disabled or he is the coolest fucking guy you will ever know."
-Chuck Klosterman
I have been hung up on twice today. Both have been Home Depot stores wanting to know where their shipments are. They don't realize that I have absolutely no say in when the shipment gets to their store, as when it leaves our plant it is out of our hands. We shipped on time, they will deliver when they deliver. Stop bugging me. Oh OK, hang up, that's mature.

On a side note, my little brother is home for the weekend, and hopefully he's actually at the house when I get home later. Arrived home last night to find he was out with his friends, and by the time he got home I was asleep. How stupid Luke, lame to the extreme.

Thought for the day, I miss my iPod hookup to my car. Listening to maybe two songs on the way to work is very sad. Stupid morning radio.
