Mr. & Mrs Smith...

In honor of the DVD release...i would share some funny quotes from the movie (all courtesy of imdb.com)

John Smith: Come to Daddy.
Jane Smith: [after she bashes him with a tablecloth-ensconced silver teapot and headbutts him] Who's your Daddy now?

John Smith: [during a car chase] I never told you, but I was married once before. Jane Smith: [slams on the brakes]
John Smith: What's wrong with you?
Jane Smith: [hitting John] You're what's wrong with me John.
John Smith: It was just a drunken Vegas thing.
Jane Smith: Oh, that's better. That's *much* better. [pause]
Jane Smith: What's her name and social security number?
John Smith: No, you're not gonna kill her.

Jane Smith: Wait, why do I get the girly gun?
John Smith: What? Are you kidding me?

Jane Smith: [after shooting through a wall at John] Still alive, baby?

Augustana...my alma mater


Show me some Augie love!!

I love this campus...somedays, I would give anything and everything to be back there! Every season, this campus looks so beautiful!

There is a special love that us Augie alums have...we know about the different party houses...the annual fraternity/sorority gatherings. We speak our own little language! And it's awesome!!!

And...we have bahls too...LOL

Party like it's um...1995

Well, our 10 year high school reunion was the past Friday and my question is...WHO ACTUALLY WENT? When we received our invites this year (on the day of matt's graduation...talk about feeling old)...we reverted back to our high school ways and wanted to find out if anyone we knew was going...so we didn't end up on our own. As it turns out, no one really felt like paying $160 for a flippin buffet dinner and only 2 hours of alchol!! WTF?

Don't get me wrong, I had a blast in high school...but I don't think I would EVER go back! Well, I'd go back, but only for special occasions...the disney trips with the band...those were awesome! Senior year was the time that Bill and I went off together @ MGM and people were wondering what the two of us were up to! Little did we know where we would end up only a few years later!

Oh well, i hope the 10 people that went had a great time! LOL

What I'm thankful for this year...

I've seen alot of people mention things that they are thankful for...so I guess it's my turn. It's been a very rough year, I'd so much like to close the books on 2005...it just plain sucked the whole year.

1)I'm grateful for my husband. He's a pain in the a** and I'm sure he says the same of me. But we've managed to make things work and stay together. I'm not one to give up easily. I take my marriage vows very seriously.

2)I'm grateful for my family, both immediate and extended families. They all have helped us out in same way or another and I am always grateful for that!

3)My friends...I have some truly awesome friends!!

Let the Christmas season begin!

Ok, now Christmas can ACTUALLY begin! Of course, being the fact that it is 55 degrees...it doesn't feel that way. I've already found myself digging out the Christmas CD's and listening to the music. This has to be my favorite holiday of the year, possibly even more than my birthday. The only thing that sucks this year is that we are dirt f-in poor and so I can't go shopping crazy. Part of me is bummed about that, but the other part of me, doesn't care about the presents...I'd just rather do nice things for others. Christmas is really for the little kids...who get all excited...it's fun to watch.

Happy Thanksgiving!

To anyone who reads this, I would like to wish you and your family a Happy Turkey Day! This is one of my favorite holidays because I love all of the yummy treats that we get to have! I have lots of family favorites and lucky for me, my husband likes the recipes as well, so I get to continue on the family traditions.

I do have one pet peeve about the holiday though...it seems to be one of the most forgotten holiday...seems like most people are looking towards Christmas. Everytime I see Christmas decorations out on the lawns and already turned makes me very upset! It should be a law to wait until the day after Thanksgiving to turn those on. LOL

I hope everyone that enjoys your day!
