I have a big head and little arms. I'm just not sure how well this plan was thought through.

Yesterday evening I stepped off the bus.... right into a big pile of dog poop. I was not happy.

Ben took me out to chipotle to cheer me up. We laughed at the max occupancy sign (17) in the restaurant because there had to be at least 30 people in there, not even counting employees.

When we got home, we watched Meet the Robinsons, which I had seen the ending of on tv a little while ago and liked enough to want to see the rest of it. It was a delightfully nerdy movie. It had little jokes all over the place going by so fast, I feel like I only caught half of them. The Todayland part made me laugh out loud. It had space mountain! :)

My favorite character was the villain, Bowler Hat Guy. Everything he did made me smile. Everything.

( Two favorite Bowler Hat Guy moments )

I read that something like 60% of the movie had to be re-done because it was so bad the first time around. I watched some of the deleted scenes. I'm glad they changed what they did. It made for a much much better movie. It would have been very sad and cynical without the changes.

After the movie, I crawled into bed feeling a lot better. But just as I was drifting off, I shot straight up! I forgot to go to the pottery lab! Ben tricked me!

Oh well. I'll try again on Thursday. Hopefully there will be no dog poo to ruin that evening.

What miserable weather!

I was trying to walk my dog when a gust of wind grabbed my umbrella! I wasn't about to let it go and get soaked, so I firmly held on. Which meant my umbrella took me with it down the sidewalk!

Poor noname did her best to stand firm, but even she was being dragged down the block by the wind-filled umbrella. We were a very pathetic pair.

I did eventually get the umbrella back under control (after it flipped inside out) and we returned safely home. Noname is curled up on my lap shaking and chattering her teeth. Well, gums. It still makes a chatter-like noise.
