The Worst Movie Ever Made!!!

Two things today! An update on Adam's picture and the worst movie in the world.

First up: Adam's picture. He's been on the piano for a week because I've been too lazy to move him. Yesterday I finally found him a new/temporary home. And I have to stress the word "temporary". He wasn't on the wall a scant 10 minutes before there was an uproar. Hannah started making gagging noises and even Hallie who, up 'till now has been a quiet supporter of my decision to vote for Adam, said he was creepy and didn't belong. I was asked how long he would be there and I smiled a secret smile. " Oh, I don't know," I said.

Then Curtis came home from work and within 10 minutes of walking in the door roared "What is that doing on the wall?" You have to understand that Curtis normally doesn't notice anything!!! Even weeks after some thing's been in the house, even if I've dyed and cut my hair, even if he trips over whatever it is, he doesn't notice it. But he noticed this one!

Then the kids started in again, "He is not part of the family," and "How could you put that creepy guy next to your precious children?" Over dinner I was given several suggestions of where I might put the picture: back in the piano room, in my room next to my bed (Curtis vehemently objected to that one), or on my bathroom mirror. Curtis suggested a backyard bonfire, which was met with cheers.

*Sigh* I'm afraid Adam's days are numbered.....after I find at least one place for him (heehee).

Next up: The worst movie ever. Okay, maybe there might be a worse movie, but this one was pretty bad. On Friday Curtis and I were desperate to see a movie. Well, I was desperate and Curtis just wanted to please me. There wasn't really anything that totally jumped out at us so we settled for the 7:50 showing of "Land of the Lost". We thought "Hey! Will Ferrell--must be funny."

It's not.

When we arrived at the theater we saw my cousin and his wife coming out. They hadn't seen anything to entice them so they were going to leave without having watched anything. When we told them what we were seeing they decided to join us. About 15 minutes into the movie I wanted to walk out. I don't normally walk out of movies. I'm actually a little more careful about what I go to see, but this was a major lapse in judgement.

We didn't leave.

We should have.

I kept hoping that they would run out of raunchy jokes, but they didn't.

And we couldn't leave because my cousin was laughing (real or fake? Didn't know). We didn't want to make him feel bad. How awkward. It was horrible. I can't believe Will Ferrell was in such a horrible movie. I can't believe that cute girl from "Pushing Daisies" let a disgusting little monkey-guy grope her throughout the whole movie. And I can't believe Matt Lauer let himself be used for this atrocity. Actually the only mildly funny line in the movie was "Matt Lauer can suck it!"

See? Not funny. Run, don't walk, from this movie.

And if you saw it, I'm sorry.

If you saw it and liked it, you're deranged (no apology will be forthcoming).

Now I have to go move Adam's picture before there's a mutiny on the Bounty!
