Pirates of the Carribean: One hundred and sixty eight minutes. Plenty of time for my ass to fall asleep. It was a good movie, but I'm sure it COULD have been shortened or maybe (oh, the horror...) broken into two parts. I did enjoy it - especially the part that happens between when the sun sets and the sun rises.
Quizno's - chicken carbonara - yummy but it would be much better if the mushrooms were cooked.
I bought new sneakers - I bought Mizuno Wave Riders after extensive research. Well, my reasearch method was to try on a bunch of pairs (all different brands) and buy the ones that DIDN'T feel like I had red bricks duct taped to my feet. I never heard of Mizuno. Not the most expensive, by far - around $80, which is the most every spent on sneakers by Moi... but I put them on last night and went for a run (when it got a little cooler - we hit 90* here yesterday) and they felt great. No blisters, either. ONE WEEK!!!
Then it was on to the garden. I already have a few buds on my Coreopsis bush, and I was in the mood to buy some lavendar flowers yesterday. Again I was in the "I'll just check out what's here, and pick from that" mood, and in the end I bought a few flowers - these and these, which are prettier than the picture seems. I planted them last night, so the garden looks much better now.
The ice cream maker was not the hit I'd hoped. It was ok, but kind of a pain to assemble, load the ingredients (the mini chocolate chips TOTALLY stuck together in the heat - better to go with mini M & M's....) etc. It also took much longer to freeze up than the directions said (since it was 90*). The girls liked it, but it wasn't HUGE.
Later!!!

we tried to go see Pirates at the drive in tonight.. but alas.. it was full up by the time we got to the booth (well, almost) and we were an hour early!! (sigh).
My trip to the garden center is tomorrow.. I'm getting new vegetable gardens for my birthday (raised bed.. woot!)
Mizuno's are a great product and really good for people who need shoes that provide motion stability. My running shoe specialists put me into those on my first visit to their store and I'm a junky for them now.
(As a side note they lasted 2x as long as any pair of Reebok or Nike's I wore ever did)
