What are you doing at this very moment?

[Caitlyn]

About to go take a nap before I strangle someone... :p
Getting used to the graveyard shift again after being off for over a week sucks.... ;)

[undercoverlover]

strangle someone - its a real tension reliever

[gummo]

Working on movie reviews and my head hurts...7 more to go...lol

[Iroquois]

The usual nothingness - Internet. May get back to playing Timesplitters in a bit.

[jrs]

Working on my DVD Blog

[undercoverlover]

almost doing some exercise and cookin a late dinner

[Austruck]

Wow, how do you *almost* do some exercise? (I need to know this trick!)

I'm fussing over the seven new books I got today, thanks in large part to B&N gift certificates from both Yoda and his younger brother. I am an embarrassing book-buying fiend! Been on a binge for months now with no end in sight.

[undercoverlover]

almost exercising means intending to do it, convincing yourself you're going to do and then...not doing it

what books did you get?

[Caitlyn]

what books did you get?


I was going to ask the same thing.... :)

[Austruck]

Oh, then THAT I am good at. :D

I got these:

The Pillars of the Earth (Ken Follett)
World Without End (Ken Follett)
Crime and Punishment (Dostoevsky)
The Brothers Karamazov (Dostoevsky)
Heartsick (Chelsea Cain)
The Razor's Edge (W. S. Maugham)
Jane Eyre (C. Bronte)

Can you tell one of my personal goals is to read more classics? :D

All of these were either trade paperback size or hardback. I don't buy the mass market paperbacks anymore. I hate trying to hold them open and squint to read them. I've decided snobbishly that I'm buying only the larger books from now on, and hardback when I can get a good price.

I'm starting Pillars of the Earth tonight. Oh, and Yoda also got me Steve Martin's bio, Born Standing Up, and I went through half of that already in one sitting so far.

[Caitlyn]

Nice haul... I could spend all day in a book store or library... and haven't been in either in such a long time that I think I will make a point of going very soon.... :)

[Iroquois]

Avoiding doing anything worthwhile - like finishing off Ikiru or housework.

Also dreading going back to work tonight...

[Austruck]

My youngest and I hit the local libraries regularly. I have a few favorites and have rekindled my love of being amid stacks of books in recent years.

Most of the books I got today were discounted nicely, and I'm a B&N member now so that added discounts. I'm now on their web site scoping out the huge after-holiday sales. Their classics are half-priced right now. Getting some hardbacks at about four bucks apiece. :)

[Austruck]

Iroquois ... one never ever finishes off housework. :)

Hi there.... welcome to Movie Forums... :)

here's the link to the intro forum....

Birthday and Introduction Forum (http://www.movieforums.com/community/forumdisplay.php?f=17)

Just snuck a piece of chocolate to my grandaughter, her momma doesnt know yet.

Just snuck a piece of chocolate to my grandaughter, her momma doesnt know yet.
Someone needs to teach her the meaning of blackmail.

[Iroquois]

At a loss for things to do at the moment. Some washing needs to be hung out and I wonder if I'll get around to it. And of course, several DVDs I still need to watch....

[nebbit]

Nebbie, I keep forgetting to ask how your eye is? Did the tea bag help at all?
It is back to normal now :yup: I spent most of the day with ice and tea bags on it :rolleyes: It was a smaller swelling by the time the wedding started :cool: thanks for your help and concern :kiss:

[Caitlyn]

Glad your eye is better and that you didn't miss the wedding Nebs... :)


I just got back from the store... where I had to exchange a few choice words with an ignoramus over letting her kids run wild all over the place with shopping carts bumping into people...

[Iroquois]

Killing time until The Salton Sea starts playing on Foxtel - still about an hour to go. Playing TimeSplitters 3 again.

[7thson]

Just finished searching for Allison's num-num (pacifier), no luck, but I remember the old trick where ya stop-up an old nipple from a bottle with something. Seems to be working? If not I have some small reses pieces cup as a back up.

[PimpDaShizzle V2.0]

Dude.... just finished watching Robocop 2. Hell yeah.

[Iroquois]

Now that my major plan for today (aforementioned viewing of The Salton Sea) is done, what will I do? Hmm...more movies I think.

[Lennon]

I am watching What it Takes- Reese Witherspoon, she is VERY pretty

[Caitlyn]

Thanking my lucky stars I don't have to work tonight because I haven't slept all day.... :p

[7thson]

Was going to catch up on work today, I decided to watch Logan's Run and goof off instead. Now I am dreadin' tommorow and do not want to go to sleep cause when I do my day off is over.

[Caitlyn]

do not want to go to sleep cause when I do my day off is over.

I know the feeling... but I'm starting to get a little icky feeling so will probably give it up soon as I've been up for over 32 hrs now.... I may be off tomorrow though too... which would be nice ....

Right now I'm trying to decide what movie I am going to watch... and doing a happy dance because I don't have to work tonight.... :D

going to bed after a long arse day

[Caitlyn]

Taking a break from watching Chinatown... and trying to remember, once again, that Meat is just a snotty nosed kid....

I just gave him a Kleenex. I hope he uses it.

[7thson]

Was going to watch a movie, but my grandaughter is not asleep yet, so we are going to go out and search for the moon.

[jel-chappo]

listening to the Scarface soundtrack, haha. Cheesey!

I was curious what steps one would take in finding the cause of death for a family member . . . without asking the family? This would also be 2 states away, so I can't just walk in with ID, or anything.

Contact the Bureau of Vital Records in the state they died in and request a copy of the death certificate.... or, if the death was recent (I believe within the last 6 months), contact the funeral home that was in charge. Be sure you let them know you are a relative... the closer the connection, the better... and you may have to tell a fib to get it... like the deceased was your aunt, uncle, etc. and that you need the death certificate for insurance purposes. Oh, and either place is going to charge you a fee... funeral homes are usually the less expensive of the two....

[allthatglitters]

I am thinking it's funny that the last time I posted about a movie on this forum about movies was like in 2005.

I have five windows open to lenghty-ish articles I've only half read. I have one window up on RCP, linking me to dozens of articles I want to read still.

Wow, that was fast. Thanks! I don't mind paying, and yep, I'm very related. It was over 30 years ago. I hope they keep that information around for a while. I aim to close a few doors this year. :yup:

[PimpDaShizzle V2.0]

My stomach is acting suspicious. Do I go to bed and risk waking up in the middle of the night, just to take care of some business?..... or do I wait it out for another half hour and see what's brewin'?

No problem... and the Bureau of Vital Records keeps the info forever... and since it was that long ago, you shouldn't have any trouble getting a copy from them... and can probably order it on-line...

[Ðèstîñy]

I didn't know the date of birth, or date of death, but with just the name, it found him. He was the first on the list. I feel kind of weird, now. What the hell. It's better than never knowing.

[Tacitus]

Taking time off from some nut-numbingly boring genealogical study (it's work, Jim, but not as we know it) to watch the Godfather trilogy.

Yep, even Part III...

That's a bit like coming home for Christmas and catching up with a couple of old friends only to be reminded by your mother that your auntie Flo is expecting a visit. She might smell faintly of wee and cats but she'll slip you a tenner and a glass of sherry. ;)

[undercoverlover]

^^ i was just talking about the godfather III today in screenwriting class, everyone bags on this movie but love it. Obviously its not as good as the first but its not all bad

[gummo]

Feeling stressed out!! There is so much drama going on in my life, I want it to stop! I prefer watching drama in movies, not in my life.

[Caitlyn]

Hope you were able to get a copy Ðèstîñy... and Hugs Gummo... :)



Right now I am just sitting here lost in various thoughts about nothing in particular (sounds better than daydreaming... I think)... :p :D

[Tacitus]

^^ i was just talking about the godfather III today in screenwriting class, everyone bags on this movie but love it. Obviously its not as good as the first but its not all bad

When you separate it from its more illustrious siblings I suppose The Godfather III is a competent enough crime drama but the problem is that it was always intended to be a part of the series so I can't help but compare it to the first two films. I think it's markedly inferior on every single level.

Big-hearted but stupid, a bit like Fredo. :)

[linespalsy]

Trying to figure out what I should charge for tutoring a home school student in 8th grade algebra 2-3 nights a week. I've never done any tutoring before and have no idea what a normal rate is. So I'm googling.

[Tacitus]

I charge £15-20 an hour, depending on whether I have to travel to their house or not. That seems to be the going rate around here. :)

[linespalsy]

That's helpful. I found a couple services listed online that were going for $25 an hour for that level math.

[Tacitus]

Good luck with it. :)

If the kid wants to learn then that's half the battle won. What I do is structure each session as if I was teaching a class of 30 - make a little lesson plan, in other words.

Very useful to refer back to if you find yourself covering the same ground with someone else further down the line, too. ;)

[linespalsy]

Thanks, I talked to the mother already and she seemed pretty reasonable and was pretty clear, at least over the phone, about what her kid needs. It sounds like the kid already has a pretty good grasp but just needs to be given some organized coursework to keep it fresh in her mind for when she goes back to school next year. Guess I'll find out.

What year was the man you're trying to get the death certificate on born?

[Iroquois]

Trying to win gold on the same challenge in TimeSplitters that I've been stuck on for the past few days. Also lamenting my recent sleeping pattern.

[7thson]

Just won a game of hold'em with the kids. Big fish little pond thing rocks!!!

[Tatanka]

:mad:About to punch a hole through my computer and put a cyber-choke on my AOL software

[Ðèstîñy]

What year was the man you're trying to get the death certificate on born?

Yeah, that would be another question. That, and the exact date of death. The year was his death was 1978. Those two exact pieces of information, I can get, but I don't need anyone getting curious as to why I am asking, and they have got to be certain with what they tell me. It would appear that I will be charged something, whether they find it all, or not. I already know he's dead. I don't care to pay, to hear that again. :rolleyes:

His name was the first to come up in the Ancestry.com. I know it is him, because they had the accurate middle initial, and the accurate place of birth. I wonder if I can trust them. Although I still need his father's name. Damn blasted!

Do I sound mysterious, or what!?!

I'm not trying to be sneaky, or get minds to wondering. I will probably say what this is all about, once I find out for myself.

I was going to suggest you check some of the genealogy sites (Rootsweb and LDS are free) to track down his Social Security number so you can order a copy of his record... sometimes they have the parents and other family information listed. Also, if he was in the military, they would have the names of his parents.

If the man in question was born before 1930, he should be on the 1930 census with his parents. Some of the libraries in major cities have the census on microfilm in their genealogy departments... and all states have a State Archives you can contact that will normally check records for you (for a fee).

[Ðèstîñy]

Thanks, and yes, I do believe he was in the military. I think I remember an old black and white photo of him in his suit.

[Caitlyn]

Good luck Ðèstîñy.... :)

Two of my doggies are Boston Terriers... one large... one small... but both big babies and a little on the neurotic side... the small one would probably take a very large hunk out of someone's leg... but the other one... she'd go for the throat if someone was trying to hurt me...

I googled the Boston Terrier 'cos I didn't have a concrete idea of what they looked like. They're cool looking, I have to say - a bit like a miniature Staffie (the one sitting beside me is an American Staffordshire so he's got long legs and shoulders as broad as my coffee table).

I wish I could keep a dog but I really can't walk one very far these days. I've had 3 Jack Russells and had to give the last one away because he needed much more exercise than I could provide. They're great dogs, real little Napoleons - my first one's party trick was bounding into a field full of cattle and scaring the livestock.

....And he was a miniature. ;)

Boston's are cool looking... Both of mine are females but there is absolutely nothing feminine about them... they snore, burp, and... well... you know... :D The small one seems to stay a bit windy and likes to get under my Mum's chair when she's around and have a bit of fun with her.... 'tis one of the things guaranteed to make her say a few choice words no matter who is around... :p

Boston's ancestors are the old English Bull Dogs and most of the one's I've been around are not as hyper as Jack Russell's... 99% of the time, mine are lap dogs, so you might be able to handle one of the smaller Bostons if you have room for one to run a bit in your house or yard... they have unique personalities and are a lot of company... :)

How did your doggie sitting go?

In that case, you will have seen it three times before anybody else probably sees it once. Why don't you bite the bullet and write a little something? Don't sweat how "professional" it looks, and just make it personal. Also, remember not to gloat too much. :cool:

King of New York

I'm expanding my horizons ;)
Watch the ones I've emboldened as soon as you can! And if you already have seen them, what did you think?

Also I suggest you track down a DVD copy of 8 1/2 rather than watching it on tape.

[jrs]

In that case, you will have seen it three times before anybody else probably sees it once. Why don't you bite the bullet and write a little something? Don't sweat how "professional" it looks, and just make it personal. Also, remember not to gloat too much. :cool:

I'll write it this week.

[Tatanka]

Wondering why I ate so many peanut butter cookies.

[Iroquois]

Already saw Sunrise and Sunset today. (I give them 4.5 and 4 respectively). As for Seventh Seal, I'll get around to seeing it tonight.

As for 8½ (yeah, I know the keystroke for writing "½" - fancy :p ), the only copy said video store had was VHS. I'll see if it's worth getting on DVD soon enough.

[mc-yui]

Hope you are better soon :yup:

thanks.. ;) today i'm feeling much better..ahhwwtss back to work now...:mad:

[Iroquois]

Making my 1700th post and taking a small break from watching movies.

[fbuenanry]

eating yummy chocolates.. :)

[The Gnat]

I've been trying to find a potentially more exciting job then the one I'm at, while I'm at my current job.

[Caitlyn]

Getting ready to go to the Doc's about my shoulder again... ugh... :rolleyes:

[Tacitus]

Trade 'er in, Caity.

If not then fer Gawd's sake get a lighter handbag! :D

[nebbit]

Getting ready to go to the Airport to pick up my Sister http://bestsmileys.com/fun/1.gif

[Caitlyn]

LOL.... believe it or not, I don't even carry a handbag ... I keep a "goodie" bag in my jeep and another one in my locker at work with just about everything I need ... and all my uniforms have numerous pockets to hold a little cash and my debit card... I like traveling light.... ;) :D


Edit: I forgot to mention I might get benched again for a few weeks because my shoulder is still not completely healed... *insert bunches of very unlady like curse words*

[Iroquois]

Writing about how I got promised knowledge and spiritual well-being and ended up being guilted out of $5. Now wondering what to do with this book I got.

[7thson]

You, unlady like? I doubt that.;)

Seriously though I know how it sucks to be out of work because of an injury. All I can say is you might as well let "it" heel completely otherwise it will just be tougher in the long run. BTW, what did I miss, how did you get injured? If it is not too personal to ask.:)

[PimpDaShizzle V2.0]

You need Criterion's version. Its worth it, unless you're broke, in which case you should buy it, then sell it..... like I did. Dang!

[Iroquois]

Indeed. However, I still haven't seen it (there's a small matter of getting the VCR to work with the TV, plus getting some privacy to watch). Then I'll decide if it's worth getting a Criterion version.

At the moment, guzzling Coke and not looking forward to making dinner tonight. :|

[fbuenanry]

waiting for 30 mins before break time.. im really hungry.. :(

'Tis not too personal, just can't go into a lot of detail... so let's just say I was engaging in a wee bit of unwanted tackle... ;)

Right now I'm trying to make myself go to the store... my food supply is low...

[The Gnat]

I am trying to waste away the last 20 odd minutes of my work day before I hit the weekend. It isn't working all that well, as time seems to be going very slowly currently.

This must just be a crappy day... one of my kitties died. Was just a stray that I fed but still... and one of the other ones hasn't shown up to eat either.... sucky day...

[gummo]

Hugs to you as well Caity!
My aunt is a great aunt, she was 92. So she lived a long life! It's just sad a bit because I hadn't seen her in about 10 years. PLus the last 15 yrs of her life were pretty bad with dementia.

My great aunt turned 91 last month and has been more like a grandmother to me than an aunt.... and so far, her mind is fine. I love to listen to her talk about when she was younger... :)

[Tatanka]

Trying to decide if I should go run or give my legs a break and retreat from- what is now- a 16 degree Saturday afternoon in toasty SW Ohio.

Sorry to hear about your kitties :( :kiss:

[7thson]

Just finished making some major household decisions. Long story short: 5 teenagers, Me my fiance' and my mother all living in same house with a grandbaby of mine here half the time and my oldest daughter complained about privacy issues. She did have her own room and then moved out and then came back months later, hence no more own room. Oh well we will see how it all works out. I was happy with three and a cot when I was a teenager...;)

[Caitlyn]

Sorry to hear about your kitties :( :kiss:


Thanks Nebbs... the missing one finally showed up this afternoon and seemed to be okay.... just hungrier than normal... :)

Passing time until I have to go to work.

[Tatanka]

Just killed a bowl of "biscuit mush"....a lame concoction of mine entailing the smashing of 2-3 of your favorite biscuits in a bowl, dumping some butter on top, microwaving it till melted and then topping it all off with a sick gob of strawberry fruit spread and then mixing it to a clumpy consistency.

It looks ridiculous, but dang, it goes down good:licklips:

[Austruck]

Oh man, you guys are killin' me. I've been on the couch all day with a few of the more embarrassing symptoms of stomach flu, so I've been reduced to water, saltines, and chicken noodle soup. :(

At least tomorrow I will take the energy to make homemade chicken noodle soup, which I adore even when I'm well. :)

The stomach flu is going around down here too... so, far, I've been lucky but I have to go back out into the world of work tomorrow night....

Homemade chicken soup sounds good to me.... I was thinking about making some homemake veggie soup tomorrow... :)

Reffing season is winding down, thankfully. I am about 2 months into training for my first half-marathon too, so my legs have been toast the last few weeks.

Instead of running a half-marathon, I like telling peeps I'm half-running a marathon.;)
