Fourth Of July Recap

The Fourth of July is always a big deal in the Zohner household, and to be honest, why wouldn’t it be?  After all, I come from a long line of rednecks (my grandma used to have a TV that worked on top of her TV that didn’t).  The Fourth of July is the perfect redneck holiday!  Not only do we get to celebrate the birth of our nation but we get to blow stuff up and cook meat on fire.  Who could ask for more?

Hannah’s New Shoes

Asphalt PieI know I’m late in posting this but a few weeks ago Hannah turned four years old.  For her birthday we went to Winger’s for lunch and then went and saw Pixar’s Up.  (Up was an amazing movie that I would recommend to anybody.)  As soon as we walked into Winger’s, Hannah told the hostess that it was her birthday.  This worked to her advantage since she got a free asphalt pie after the meal.  As you can see, she enjoyed wearing it almost as much as she enjoyed eating it.

Hannah received some pretty cool birthday presents.  Chelsea gave her some clothes and shoes but the clothes were too big and the shoes were too small so Holly had to exchange them.  Yesterday she had some time so she took Hannah to the store and let her choose the clothes and shoes that she wanted.  Hannah found some pink glitter covered  shoes with Disney princesses on the inside so she had to have them.  My response to Holly when Hannah showed them to me was “Really?  You really let her get these?  Really?”

It’s A New Year…

…and I couldn’t care less.  I have never understood the fascination that people have with turning the page on a calendar.  Well, I can understand it if they have a really cool calendar like Dilbert or The Art of Star Wars.  Still though, even the presence of a cool calendar doesn’t excuse the “festivities” that take place with the coming of a new year.  Standing outside in the cold and counting backwards from ten just doesn’t appeal to me.

The only year that I have looked forward to is 2000 and that was because I wanted to see if the predicted horrors of Y2K would actually happen.  Obviously they didn’t which was a great disappointment to many survivalists that had stocked up on toilet paper and Mountain Dew but it was nice to know that my VCR still flashed “12:00″ without missing a beat.

The Clone Wars Reviewed

Thanks to my friend Carl, this morning I was able to attend an advanced screening of Star Wars: The Clone Wars. For those who know me, you know that I’m a big Star Wars geek so being able to see the movie a whole week before it’s released was awesome. (I think that it should help my geek cred. Maybe +5?)

I’m too lazy to write a plot synopsis so here is one from allmovie.com.
