Monday: To Do List

So another week begins here in the Ford world. I must say that as I'm writing this I'm mostly excited for this week. Not that I have anything super awesome planned, but I just feel like its going to be a good week.

And you want to know what makes a good week? A good Monday.

And you want to know how to have an awesome Monday? Set goals.

Goals like the character Stanley Stupid makes in my favorite movie, The Stupids.



(this montage is like 8 minutes long...I only ask you watch until about 45 seconds. Or just watch the entire movie, because it is hilarious. but just a warning: your local blockbuster might not have it...)

Ok ok now my list for Monday:
1. Work on my bald spot tan (aka work)
2. Email Rick Steves and ask/beg for a job
3. Call rapper Flo Rida (ok ok did you know he made his number public last week?! I had no idea until now. I read like 4 different articles about it until I found his actual number. You better believe I'm going to call it. And you better believe Flo Rida and I are going to be BFF's in no time. I need his advice on apple bottom jeans and whether or not they go with boots without fur...and lets be honest, I just feel awesome with Flo Rida in my phone book)


4. Eat leftover eggs, preferably of the deviled variety
5. Stock up on excess Reeses Peanut Butter Eggs, because they just taste better than regular Reeses
6. Research new phone options
7. Practice the song "Foolish Games" on the piano. More on that later this week. (oh, its good)
8. See a movie (toss up between Duplicity, Dragonball, and Hannah Montana)

Yeah. It's going to be an awesome day.

I'm dying to know how your phone call turns out!

And... I knew that my cousin, Nate, knew you and I know one of his mission companions, but I haven't put it together until yesterday...

You know my friend, Fa, too - don't you?! I ate lunch with him yesterday... :)

Go see Fast and the Furious. Surprisingly enough, it is VERY good. But I am also going to see Dragonball soon and am very excited about it. Adam won't go with me to Hanna Montana which makes me wish that you were here so we can see it together.

Is that DragonballZ? Did they make a movie of that?

A few excerpts from top film critics about the last Fast and the Furious film:

While Fast and Furious features the requisite action and stunts, the filmmakers have failed to provide a competent story or compelling characters.

People who want nothing more out of a movie than an extended rap video -- there's lots of hip-hop, close-ups of cars, and women in shiny tiny shorts -- may be satisfied. But this movie isn't much more than a re-do of the first film in the series.

Feels about as fresh and lively as a piece of burnt rubber.

Director Justin Lin still hasn't learned film geography. Even the kinetic tunnel races, meant to nitrocharge the movie, fall flat from spatial incoherence. You barely know what's happening, and to whom.

It's time for these car fiends to slam the heap into 'park.' Diesel should use his ESP powers to find a better gig with a franchise that still has some gas -- such as maybe The Pacifier 2?

Oh boy, oh boy.

Duplicity - 71%
Hannah Montana - 52%
Fast and Furious - 21%

PS - Thanks to your montage, I will never see The Stupids. Ever.

Another confession

(this isn't about the same subject matter as before) A lot of the time when I meet people I feel like I know them from somewhere. A good percentage of the time I realize the only way I know them is that they resemble one of the characters on the classic board game Guess Who? Does this happen to anyone else?!?!

Recent Obsession Flair-ups

You know how there are some things that you love so much and you experience these things a ton but then after awhile they just seem to fade out? But then some time passes and you almost rediscover these things with new eyes and obsess over them again almost worse than the first time? This has recently happened to me with a few things. They include: Elton John Tater Tots Seinfeld Showering Grape Juice Thats it. PS: (Did you know?!) Thanks to Dare-bear-stare for helping me learn that my own Denver International Airport is the largest airport in the U.S. at 53 square miles! Props to Denver yet again!

Take Home Chef Wannabe

So once upon a time my friend Jeff and I made up our own little tradition. We called it "Friday Picture" and each Friday we would walk around campus and take a picture with the most awkward/awesome/unique looking individual we could find. It was something I looked forward to every week, and we would constantly surprise ourselves with the kind of people we'd see walking around BYU. A lot of weridos there. One day we decided to meander through the library to see if there was anyone extra special for our Friday Picture. Boyyy, did we find that special person! World, meet Take Home Chef Lookalike. I saw him and I couldn't believe the similarities. The striking features. The blond, pointy hair. We even found some silverware to make the photo more true to life. ( The real Curtis Stone ) Try to tell me they don't look alike. Just try. I think the best part of the story is that Jeff's girlfriend at the time (now wife) had dated Take Home Chef-a-like. And we di...
