Party and Pictures

I realized today that I have not done a Manuel on Movies post in a long time.  I decided to make a list of what movies I've seen since the last one that I have yet to review.  You know how many movies were on that list?  TWENTY NINE.  That is a LOT of movies to write about and not only could I not sit and write that many at a time, there is no way in hell you guys would read that many in one sitting.  I would end up writing 29 reviews only for the comments to be, " I liked that one movie," and ignoring the other 28!  Hell no!  So, I am going to break it up into 5 at a time.  Starting tomorrow, June 20th, I will do a Manuel on Movies every day with 5 new movies and that will hopefully make it easier for the both of us.  There are some good ones on here, but remember, some of these go back quite a ways so no, "You JUST saw that?" from the peanut gallery.  So, that will be starting tomorrow. 

Jess, Brandon, Yvette and I went to the new Dave and Buster's here in town for the first time on Friday.  None of us had ever been to one so we didn't know what to really expect, but we had a TON of fun.  First off, the food was excellent.  I know we were all happy with what we ordered.  Then we got to the fun and it was nice to play all the games they offered without the nuisance of kids running around.  Here is a video of a few clips from the evening.



I have a few pictures to share from the last couple of days.  The first couple of pics are of a top that I got at a convention a few months ago.  It's from the movie Inception and as I didn't see Inception until this past weekend, I had no idea what the top symbolized.  The movie was spectacular, but you have to wait for the review.  Until then, or unless you have seen the movie already, you're just going to have to enjoy the pics for what they are, pictures of a top.

Lastly, we are doing more home improvements - this time in our middle bedroom or as we call it, Jessica's craft room.  Like we did in our bedroom, we are painting, ripping up the carpet, and installing laminate floors.  Jess ordered a giant cabinet for all her craft supplies and it will look great once it is all done.  Her new card making business deserves the great space.  Anyways, while she painted today, I took the chance to shoot a few pictures.  Enjoy...

Hooray - posts, posts, and more posts! and they are movie posts too - even better!

These new pictures are great - I haven't seen inception yet, so I can only imagine the significance but just as a top - the pictures are great. The pain brush pictures are fantastic. The color and lighting are just perfect. I love how you take something so simple and make it into art. Love it!

Dave and Busters seems like the perfect place for you guys!

Interesting closeup of the paintbrush! I wasn't sure what it was at first, and then my mind unpretzled itself.

Dave & Busters is such a fun place - I've only been there twice, both for staff meetings. I'd like to stay longer there one of these days.

You guys really look like you had a great time at Dave & Busters. But painting seems fun with you peeps too! haha :-)
Really looking forward to the movie reviews. I used to be a great movie watcher, but for the past couple of years I am way off my game.

Anticipating the happiness of seeing posts every day for awhile. I always enjoy your movie reviews and am glad you are posting them five at a time. Great pictures! I love that top!

The top is a good picture, but the movie is better - go see it everyone!

I love your posts and am happy to have them back.
