Farmer Gets A Wife

As I was finishing my run tonight, the new CW show Farmer Gets A Wife came on the tv. I have seen previews for this show and definitely had no intention of watching it. However, I caught a glimpse of the license plate on the guys truck and it was a Missouri plate. This peaked my interest in the show. When I returned to my apartment, I checked out the show to see where it's taking place. Oddly enough, the guy is from West Alton which is about 20 minutes from where I grew up. Crazy!! Anyway I don't think I'll continue watching the show. No one from these reality shows stay together.

End of the road

Well, my attempt at blogging every day was average. I didn't accomplish my goal, but I sure did try. It's made me want to start blogging again, but on actual topics. I've already decided that next month, I will try and read the Bible every day. I read so much anyway that this shouldn't be a problem. It just needs to be a priority, blogging wasn't. If I am successful next month, I'm hoping that it will become a habit, instead of a month long challenge.

I've already meet one of my goals for the year which was to learn a new skill - Photoshop. The other classes I'm taking this year are Dreamweaver, which I'm already proficient in, but I have to take for work, a writing workshop, and I'll be a chapter member of the Toastmasters International. No, they don't make toasters, it's more of a public speaking/professional development group. I'm so excited!!

Boleyn Girl

This weekend the must see movie of the year, for me, comes out. The Other Boleyn Girl. I love Natalie Portman too. I'm not so much a fan of Scarlett Johanssen, but I'll have to take the bad with the good. Because I've been reading more historical fiction lately, it's definitely peaked my interest in learning more about history, english history is. I'll starting reading the sequel to the Boleyn Girl this weekend. I think it's about Anne's daughter.

Movies

I've seen a lot of movies recently. Ones I would recommend are Vantage Point and Kingdom. Ones I wouldn't suggest are the Brave One, Fools Gold, and Rendition. I hear Michael Clayton was good, but I feel asleep during it. Movie I'm most looking forward too is the Other Boleyn Girl.

On to the Oscars. I haven't decided yet if I will watch the Oscars, even if there isn't any new TV on. This was perfect timing.
My vote for Best Picture is Juno, even though they are the underdogs. My next choice is Atonement, even though I don't like Keira Knightly. I don't have favorites for the other categories.

Snow, Snow

So it's supposed to snow and ice tonight. How many times have I heard that this winter? I know most of the country has been hit pretty hard this winter by snow storms, and we unfortunately haven't. Part of me wants to finally have a winter storm tomorrow, but I'm also ready for spring and I'm done with the cold weather.

Do the winter blues have you down?
