James Cameron’s AVATAR is in theaters today. What about this movie interests you the most?
Sponsored by AVATAR. In theaters December 18. Buy tickets now.
Special effects of course :)
I think we're going to see it tomorrow afternoon to try to avoid the crowds.
A Christmas present Brett ordered for me came in the mail yesterday...he couldn't wait for me to open it and since it drives me crazy to see presents under the tree and I ask for a million hints I wasn't opposed to opening it. (how's that for a run on sentence?)
It was a clarinet!!! Oh and I was excited!! The first words out of my mouth were "I think I still have my old sheet music!!!" So I jump up and dig them out and sat on the couch for a good 2 hours playing. I have to admit, I had to google some of the fingerings but it all totally came back to me. I'd play a song and yell to Brett in the other room "Do you know what song that was?!"
I did tell him that I don't know how much I'll play it so he can't ask me why I don't have it out everyday. He was like "well, as long as you're happy tonight with it that's worth the money to me" awwwww
I really am spoiled...I'll totally admit it.

Mystery Couple Starts "Magical" Chain Reaction
It played like a scene from a holiday movie
-- a mystery couple, who didn’t leave their names or numbers, walked into a
restaurant, finished their meal and then set-off a chain reaction of generosity
that lasted for hours.
That’s just what employees at the Aramingo Diner in Port Richmond said a man and a woman did during their breakfast shift last Saturday morning.
“It was magical. I had tears in my eyes
because it never happened before. I’ve been here for 10 years and I’ve never
seen anything like that,” said Lynn Willard, a waitress.
Willard and other waitresses told NBC Philadelphia that the couple started the chain reaction by paying double: for their own meal and for the tab of another table of diners at the restaurant. There's no evidence that one group of diners knew the others.
“I could not believe it … and it continued
and continued, it was very nice,” said Willard. “They asked us not to say
anything until they left, but we said ‘Merry Christmas, that person picked up
your tab.’”
For the next five hours, dozens of patrons got into that same holiday spirit and paid the favor forward.
The diner’s manager said not one person was
concerned about price of the check -- which averaged between $12-$30.
“It was a surprise to all of us, the girls were even taken aback,” said Linda. “Those who took the check also tipped the waitress. So nobody had to do anything other than pass it on and that’s what they did. They just passed it forward.”
It’s a true holiday story that proves how a small gesture of kindness can create some magic.

Are any of my Voxy neighbors participating in Whiskerino? Two friends from Glasgow are doing it and while I can't grow a beard myself (not that I've really tried), it's fun to watch their daily progress. Plus, they're coming out to Nashville for the big finale and I'm *thinking* of taking a weekend trip! You know I love Voxy meetups, so let me know!
...I'd wear these (and technically they're 4.5" heels).
That's right. You heard me. And you'd oogle my footwear, I'm sure of it. Alas, my walking technique is more refined with much less heel involved. Damn you Gwen Stefani & your cute shoes.
