Big Robots and Championship Tigers!

For all you haters out there, Transformers 2 was freaking awesome! I don't know why everyone is expecting so much from a Michael Bay film. Lots of action, fights, big booms..that's booms not boobs, and excitement. If you liked the first one, you'll like this one. Seriously, these shows are based of toys for crying out loud. They are fun and entertaining. Tons of robots in this one. The Twins (Skids & Mudflap) are pretty funny, Wheelie..not so much, Soundwave was cool although not used a whole lot. I was kind of disappointed that they didn't use some of the other new characters very much, but no ones perfect. Overall, I'd say 3.5 out of 5, but seriously close to a 4. These are the types of movies we don't get any more. The big action, not much plot, summer movies. I miss those. There are way too many tearjerker dramas out there. Anyway, go check it out. Fun movie for all ages, with the exception of some language.

Moving on....the LSU Tigers are the 2009 NCAA Baseball Champions!!! I'm loving every minute of it. LSU has always been my favorite school. Mostly for baseball, but now for pretty much any sport. This was my dream college. This is where I wanted to go play ball at after high school. So, believe me when I say I shed tears for my team when they won. Anyone who knows me, knows I'm a huge baseball fan. I'm so loving this win. For all you band wagon Longhorn fans, serves you right for trash talking all series long! For, you true 'Horns fans, better luck next year. I'm pretty sure Texas will be there. Geaux Tigers!!

That's all I got. Later all.

Back..

Sorry I've been away for awhile. But, here I am again...and moving on.

First things first, I am on vacation! Thank the Lord. I really needed some time away from work. Planning on hanging out with the family and spending some time relaxing.

Second, the College World Series is underway here in Omaha. My LSU TIgers are on a roll and I'm loving every minute of it. I love baseball. Under appreciated college sport that it is. Speaking of the CWS, several people I know, who have lived here all their lives, are complaining about the CWS and the traffic...again. Seriously people, move on already. Some of these people hate baseball apparently, which is fine, but don't put down the sport because you don't like the traffic. Baseball is this country's pastime, like it or not. Soccer/Futbol is not, just so we're clear...you know who you are.

Looking forward to summer movies. Transformers 2 is coming up next week. Saw Star Trek a few weeks back. Best flick I've seen all year. Also, Harry Potter, Public Enemies, and G.I. Joe are all coming out soon. Although, I'm not sold on the latter. This coming from a huge G.I. Joe fan.

I am now currently caught up on all things Family Guy. I picked up Volume 7 this week on DVD. Best show on TV right now, hands down. Also picked up the new Ghost Busters game for Xbox 360. I have yet to play it. I'll let you know how it is.

Finally, I have come to a point in my life where I feel like I'm not going anywhere. I miss my artwork and I'm beginning to hate retail with a passion. I want to go back to school, but now is not the time. I have a baby on the way, a new car to pay for, and my house to fix. I'm not complaining about the last things. They are part of my life and I'm super excited for my new baby. I really need to sit down and reevaluate my life. I've gained probably somewhere around 10 pounds, I don't exercise, I miss artwork, and I'm beginning to miss playing baseball. I don't know. Maybe it's just a phase. I feel like I'm not who I should be. (wow, that totally reminded me of Anakin Skywalker....sad).

Okay, no more whining...tonight. Good night/good morning all.
