Day 26 - OMG WTF? Season finale

As far as season finales go, Star Trek has had numerous OMG! WTF? moments. The first and most stunning time they did it was the end of season 3 The Best of Both Worlds, and did that make for an unbearable summer for me, and I’m pretty sure for my mom, who I insisted on going over all my theories with. All. Summer. Long.

Alice’s last puppy agility class was yesterday and tonight was the club’s summer general meeting. Between them I did manage to squeeze in a few minutes of time to work on my statue, and do a little reading. I also got a gift from work – an old rusty horseshoe. Why is this exciting? Because it’s going to become yet another Halloween prop! This one will be a quick and easy one too.

In non-Halloween related news, I should be finishing up the banister this weekend. The weather looks like it'll cooperate, and I should be able to get it cleaned and stained Friday evening and Saturday, and hung on Sunday, between the various activities that are going on.

Also, next week is the primary election, and once again I'm serving as an election judge. So everyone in Maryland (and any other state with a primary coming up) go vote! Unless you've already done your absentee ballot or taken advantage of early voting.

Afraid of spiders? Would you blow yourself up to kill a spider? This man did!

Lucy thought that it should be pointed out that she is in fact awesomer than awesome.

Just in case you weren't aware.

Our dog club decided to try having a single CPE run tonight, and I think Lucy and I did pretty well out there.

Day 17 - A movie that disappointed you the most

Wanted http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0493464/ made for such a great comic, that I thought if any studio had the guts to turn it into a movie; it would have to be pretty awesome. Well, it wasn’t. They took out everything that made the comic really interesting, and turned it into some crappy action flick that would have been completely forgotten had it not starred Angelina Jolie and Morgan Freeman.

We had puppy agility class tonight. We skipped last week because I won tickets to the Orioles game, and what a game it was! Tonight went well, and I love our new earlier time!

I actually ran this a couple of times and had several Dan Brown results, as well as a couple of Tolkien.

I also ran the Declaration of Independence, and it says that Mr. Jefferson writes like H.P. Lovecraft! Now there’s a fun plot hook for a Revolutionary War/Early Republic era Call of Cthulhu game!!

Day 07 - The most surprising plot twist or ending

I knew there was something up, but I was genuinely surprised by The 6th Sense. Star Trek the Motion Picture also had a thought provoking twist at the end.

Tonight we start puppy agility with Alicemonster. I really wish the class didn't start at 8:15.
