Would You Steal This Car?

I do not understand people who steal.  I completely understand the need to protect items.  However, this car... I ...why?  Lol.  I do not believe this person has anything to worry about.  And I say this in good humor :-).

Wise Words From Macklemore

So yeah.  I wanted to share this with the world - they are wise words from one of my favorite songs :-).  I can just feel the love.  How nice of him to write this for his daughter.  Warm fuzzies!

Growing Up (Sloane's Song)
by Macklemore (Ben Haggerty)

"You put the work in, don't worry about the praise, my love.  Don't try to change the world, find something that you love.  And do it every day.  Do that for the rest of your life.  And eventually, the world will change.
-
Tell the truth, regardless of the consequence.
-
And every day, give your mama a compliment.
-
The quickest way to happiness?  Learning to be selfless.  Ask more questions, talk about yourself less.
-
Watch the sun set with best friends from a rooftop."

Check out Magical Girl Policy

One of my favorite stories is called Magical Girl Policy.  It's about a group of college students who use special powers to fight off evil in their town.  There's obviously quite a bit more to the story, including interactions and struggles with various types of relationships, but I don't want to give anything away and it is best to simply read it for yourself.  Try chapter 1 and see what you think!  Please and thanks.  It's an online story - here is the link - just copy and paste the link into a new window.

Gleenobly's Mix Tape Side A & B

Trinity the dog passed away today. RIP. I love and miss you girly!

The dog I used to have passed away September 24, 2015.  I am glad I got to see her last October.  She was 17.  Thank you to my ex husband for letting me talk to her over the phone just before she was put down.  And for giving her rocky road ice cream as her final treat since of course she never had it before and you don’t give dogs things like that.  But since she was passing, why not?  Some songs off Youtube that help me mourn the loss of her.  God I miss you and I love you Trinity.  Rest in peace and stay cute okay?

RIP Leonard Nimoy

RIP Leonard Nimoy who died Feb 27, 2015.  You were an inspiration to me!

A for originality, inspiration

A for the cast

A for making me think outside of myself

B for the slow beginning

I am a firm believer in not giving away spoilers so, to be 90% honest, there is not a lot I can say without giving anything away.  Just that this movie pleasantly surprised me.  It was a really big deal to me and so I highly recommend it.  I am such a movie nerd that I want to buy the DVD so I can watch the extras.  I enjoyed the family dynamics, the things that had to do with space, NASA, time, dimensions, universes, exploration, adventure.  I love a great, original sci fi flick and this movie went above and beyond my expectations.  It was funny - I was thinking how it kind of reminded me of Inception (excellent movie by the way) - then I realized both were directed by Christopher Nolan.  Very cool.  This movie also reminded me of another favorite movie of mine - A Sound of Thunder.

I had guesses about the plot and some of them were correct.  The last 30 minutes really did a lot to tie things in, leave not too much hanging, and give a fantastic ending.  I was telling my husband how I was quite pleased with the movie as a whole; he agreed with me and we don't always agree on what we think about movies.  All in all, it was also very touching and I cried several times

Gleenobly's rating: 9/10
