The Search for Spiderman

I've finally got my plane ticket back to Utah all arranged. I leave on Sunday, August 7th, sometime in the evening (5ish, I think, I have to check my email for the exact itinerary). So I only have a little over a week left in Huntsville. Thank goodness I'm going back, though. Maybe I can start doing something productive with my life.

I watched Spiderman 2 tonight. This movie is really one of my favorites and Spiderman is really my favorite superhero. I think it has something to do with him being in love with a redhead.

Anyway, I really wanted to watch it the other day, so I opened the DVD case but it wasn't there! I looked and looked everywhere for it. Everywhere! I reorganized all the other DVD's we have, opening each case in case someone had stuck it in the wrong one. I asked the boys if they had seen it anywhere, I asked Mom and Dad if they knew where it was.

Josh was the last one to watch it, I finally figured out, so he could have put it anywhere in the house. I looked in the kitchen, in the laundry room, in the family room. I even looked in the car, thinking that maybe Josh had brought it on a trip to watch on the laptop. Nothing.

I looked in nearly every dang CD case in the house, hoping to come across it. I even cleaned the computer desk, just so I could find it. Well, the desk was a mess, too, so it was good that I cleaned it. I looked forever both yesterday and today, but I couldn't find it! Finally, thinking Spiderman would be lost forever, I just gave up. I collapsed onto the couch and grieved the loss of my precious superhero.

But just then, Mom saved the day! She found the DVD tucked away on a bookshelf in her bedroom. Spiderman was back! And I got to watch the movie! Thanks Mom! Or should I say Super-Mom?

Waltzing with Bears

Today in Primary we learned a new song. It wasn't an official song from the songbook or anything; this cute old couple (the Romero's) came in and taught this cute this little song about waltzing with bears. And now that song is stuck in my head. Here's the chorus.

He goes wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-waltzing with bears,
Raggy ones, shaggy ones, baggy ones, too.
There's nothing in the world Uncle Walter won't do,
So he can go waltzing,
Wah-wah-wah-waltzing,
So he can go waltzing, waltzing with bears.

Ack! I'm updating!

It's been a while. But I just felt the need to update because I just gulped down the entire sixth Harry Potter book in one 6 hour long sitting! Or laying down, rather, cause I was on my bed most of the time. Yes, I got the book at midnight from Walmart, got home from Walmart at about 12:25, and read straight through to the early hour of 6ish. I am such a nerd.

Don't worry, I won't divulge anything. Though you know I'm just dying to!
