We just saw 'Monster House' today, and it was quite a bit better than I imagined it would be. I am not hugely fond of the animation but the story was decent and there were a few humorous parts- I thought it was superior to 'Over the Hedge'.

I really am looking forward to 'Happy Feet'. I just love the previews for it.

I liked Monster house also. Lots of character development for an animated movie, and good plotline. I liked the animation better than the plastic flat uninteresting animation of Hoodwinked!..... I realy wanted Hood to be as good as Shrek, but it fell flat in my opinion.

The animation fell a bit short for me too, but overall it wasn't bad. Now Nickolas is bugging me to see The Ant Bully.

On a side note, I just took off Sox's collar. He smells lemony fresh. I also had to refill it, so I am thinking it is working.

I had a relaxing weekend. We drove up to Portland, ME and chilled. We went antique shopping and ate a lot of lobster. I've decided that eating lobster in a lobster roll is the way to go. If you ever go to Maine, eat at Red's Eats. They have the bestest lobster rolls.
Frodo had a good time, too. He met a Corgi that was his exact twin at a MA rest stop. Amazing. "Corgis, identical Corgis..."

I can't decide if I hate you, or if I just think you have a lovely life.

lol!

We're not that love dovey. He's kinda part Vulcan in public. I really needed to get away this weekend. I was feeling burned out.
Would it make you feel any better to know that we waited in 90 degree weather for an hour for our lobster rolls?

Yes!

(ashamed)

Maine is great. I don't know if I'll get there this year. Perhaps over Labor Day weekend...

So, I'm in technical hell again. My phone battery is not holding a charge, my mouse is unresponsive, I think I'm supposed to be cleaning house or something instead. ACK!

Oh yeah, sca-what'shisname will love this. We drove by the Bush Compound in Kennebunkport. It's pretty amazing. Bush Sr. was home at the time, too. Lots of black vans. Frodo took a poop at the beach next to their house. (Yes, we picked it up.)
