Saw "2012" ...

Gosh, nothing like everything getting thrown at you but the kitchen sink. Heck, the kitchen sink might have been thrown in there and we just missed it in the mayhem. What with California falling off into the Pacific, Yellowstone Park becoming one huge erupting volcano, the Vatican collapsing, tsunamis hundreds of feet in the air, etc., one kitchen sink could have been lost in all the excitement. Poor Phyllis had to endure the movie with me since I'm a disaster movie junkie. I have no clue why other than they're totally silly and mindless. I think it started with seeing Towering Inferno when I was kid, having to sit in the first row of the theater because we got there late. I joke that at least Indianapolis will get to host the Super Bowl before the world comes to an end December 21, 2012. The last disaster flick by this director, Day After Tomorrow, dealt with global warming. I thought it'd top everything until this movie. Geesh.

Next weekend, we plan to see Blind Side with Sandra Bullock, and not just because Sandra Bullock is in it, although that is definitely an incentive. lol I loved the story when it came out during the NFL draft. I'm looking forward to a gentler movie than 2012. I'm sure my partner will, too.

On the NaNo front, I'm up to 24,850 words. Gotta keep on trucking....
