Some reviews and a treat...

Hey dudes and dudettes. It's been a while. I was just bored and though that I would blog a little while I had nothing to do. So here you go...

I know, it's been like forever and a day since I've reviewed any movies. And you know why? Because I haven't watched any lately. But like over a week ago, LaVaughn and me watched some pretty good ones. Lets start with... Hatchet. We got this movie from Hastings on a whim. And I have to say, it was pretty good. It's a slasher comedy, but totally awesome. The effects are great and they were not afraid to use blood. And not to mention, it has Robert Englund (Freddy Kruger), Kane Hodder (Jason Voorhees), and Tony Todd (Candyman) in it. The movie is set in and around New Orleans. It's about a guy called Victor Crawley that was murdered way back in the day and is coming back to seek vengeance. So, make your next flick a slasher comedy and rent this. I think you'll like it. I'm going to give it a 7.5/10. Ok, now for Hit And Run. This was another movie that we just picked up cause it sounded good. All in all, it wasn't too bad. The effects we fairly good, but the picture wasn't the best. Now I''m not saying that it was like The Hamiltons or anything, but it wasn't Titanic level. It's kind of like Creepshow's The Hitchhiker, but then again it's not. Personally, I like The Hitchhiker better. So, if you like that type of movie, then you'll probably like this. I'll give it a 7/10. Ok, last but definitely not least... The Uninvited. I got this movie from RedBox by accident. I thought it was Possession for some reason. No clue how I got the two mixed up. Anyway, it was a great movie. We had seen the preview to it when we seen Quarantine in theaters and thought that it looked good then. But, as the months passed, we forgot about it. But luckily, that's what I rented. I'm not going to go into too many details, cause the slightest thing might give some of it away. I highly recommend that you rent it today. It will so be worth the drive to your nearest DVD depot. I think I'm going to give it a 8.5/10.

Ok, now for the treat. We got a Greenies treat in the mail Monday and Milla loved it. I don't know why she's loving every treat we give her anymore, but she is. We've got her these in the past but she wouldn't dare be in a 5 foot radius of them. But, as soon as I stuck it to her nose, she grabbed it and started going to town on it. So, maybe her taste buds have changed a little or maybe the fine people behind Greenies have added that special ingredient that no dog can resist. Let your dog be the judge.

Well, I guess that's all I have to say for now. Hope you enjoyed it. Until next time...

This is the nifty little package that Greenies come in.

Movie reviews and some other stuff...

The last couple of days have been fairly busy. That's why I haven't blogged or anything. Yesterday I had to go get our tags renewed and today I had to take our grandma to the doctor. But today I think I have time to write a pretty nice blog. So here we go...

Well first I'm going to give you a little update on the sugar glider situation. We still haven't got one. We were so tempted to get one from a local pets store (cause they have one female) but thankfully, we refused. But it was so tempting. I'm just getting so sick of PetsWay saying that they'll have one in and then the next minute, they wont. That's why it was so tempting. It would've been a sure thing if the lady hadn't said that it was kind of mean. That's like the main reason we didn't go get it. And that it's like $50 more than what PetsWay charges. That was another factor. I called PetsWay today and talked to a lady and she said that their truck hadn't arrived yet. So I asked her to call if it did. So hopefully we get one tonight or tomorrow. That's about all of the sugar glider news. Oh, we ordered a couple things from a sugar glider site. It's http://gliderconnection.com/glider/. It's a really cool site with loads of cheap stuff. We got a wheel, some strawberry nectar, and some disposable bonding patches all for the low, low price of $10. So extremely cheap. There's also this other site that has loads and loads of different foods and treats for sugar gliders. It's http://www.exoticnutrition.com/. They also have stuff for other animals like hedgehogs and prairie dogs. They're both really cool sites.

Well, the other day we were looking into some gilder bonding pouches. We found a few really cute one, but none that were girly enough. So then LaVaughn was like, "I bet my mom could make us some." so off to her house we went. After we described them to her she seemed pretty confident about making them. So then all we had to do was pick out the material. And thankfully my wonderful aunt is an avid quilt maker, so we had loads of material to choose from. And of course, we found the perfect colors. We had a pink color for the outside, a tan fuzzy inside, an awesome color for the lining around the mesh window and some mesh off of an old cat toy that she had. It was all too perfect. So today, she brought us the finished product. They are so freakin cute. She did a wonderful job. No, wonderful isn't the right word... spectacular! They look so professionally made. And one of the coolest things about them, they're one of a kind. How awesome is that? So here are some pictures of the finished product...



This is the front of one. It is so cute.


This is just a picture of both of them.


The fuzzy inside.


And this is the awesome mesh window with the lining that matches the straps. So awesome.

Ok, now for some movie reviews. Like always, we got some new movies. But these movies aren't super huge or anything. These are just some movies that we find when we aren't looking for anything in particular. The first one is called, Eden Lake. This was one of the coolest movies I've seen in a long time. It was so good. It's about a couple that goes camping. And while they're camping, they run into some trouble making kids. But these aren't your normal bullies of today. These kids are hard core. I'm not going to give you too many details. You'll have to find out more on your own. This is definitely a must see movie. I give it a 8/10. Please, go rent it today. OK, next on my list is Amusement. This wasn't a bad movie. It's mostly about a guy that got bullied as a kid and now he's seeking vengeance. It got pretty good acting in it. One girl that I've seen in more that one good movie. So I think I would give it a 7/10. That seems suitable. Next is Borderline Cult. Please, for the love of everything that's holy, don't watch this movie. It was so not good and oh so cheaply made. If I had to rate this I would give it a 2.5/10. Ok, now for Beyond The Wall Of Sleep. Most of you might know the title from the legendary horror/sci-fi writer, H.P. Lovecraft. Although nothing like the short story, it's a fairly nice take on the cult classic. I think I would give it a 5.5/10. The picture quality wasn't the greatest. Moving on to Session 9. We didn't really finish this one, but it didn't seem like it was going to be too bad. It (like Beyond The Wall Of Sleep) is about a mental hospital. It has a couple actors that I've seen in other movies, so the acting isn't super bad. But the picture quality is a little shaky. So I don't have a whole lot to go on yet. But so far I give it a 6/10. That's all that I have to rate right now. We did get some more new movies Sunday though. We got Hit and Run. Hatchet, and Lakeview Terrace. We've seen Lakeview Terrace, we just hadn't got it yet. For those of you who haven't seen it, it's awesome. But come on, it has Sam Jackson in it. How bad can it be? I'll give it a 8/10. It was super awesome. I said there wasn't anymore ratings, but there was. Sorry about that. I think that's all for now.


Well, well, well. That was a mighty long blog. Hope all of you awesome rockers enjoyed it. Until next time. Be cool and rock on!

An adorable pic of grandma that I took in the waiting room at the doctors office.

A pic that I took of myself in the bathroom. Didn't mean to close my eyes though.

And here's another one of me. But I think two pics is too many. This is probably a once in a lifetime thing that will never ever happen again, lol. Peace bitches!
