Here’s a “found in Siskiyoutopia” that I’ve been saving for Heart Day - found this on the street in front of my house - cute, huh?

It’s a little beat up and been around the block, but isn’t that how love is?  When you first find it, you cherish it, pamper it and place it in a prominent spot - but as time goes on you start to take it for granted, you’ve seen it enough and eventually you drop it and neglect to pick it up.  It gets run over by the trash truck, stomped on by neighborhood kids and weathered by storms.  Then one day you rediscover it and you think to yourself, “awwww, I remember that!  How did it end up out here on the street?  I think I’ll take a picture of it:)”

My husband asked me what I wanted to do for Valentine’s Day this week (after I reminded him that it was coming up:)  Money being pretty tight lately a fancy dinner out on the town isn’t really practical so we’ve decided to spend an afternoon together watching one of our all time favorite movies - Alien vs. Predator!!  Yep, the romance just oozes from the seams in our house, no?!  But, come on, have you seen AVP?  It’s like pretty much the best movie ever made!

Happy Valentine’s Day:)

Wow… Alien vs. Predator ~ I would never have guessed…. For us, we might vote for one of those kind of “chick flicks” like “August Rush” or “Sleepless in Seattle”….

Happy Valentine’s Day to all!

ah yes, the classic chick flick…. they’re good, but the thing with AVP is that you really get to see the monsters up close and for a long time, instead of just dark silhouettes or fractions of seconds of slimy, teethy, monster shots. You know, it’s like marriage……;)….. once your married you get to see everything! Not just the shimmery glimpses of what seems to be perfection, but everything! The good, the bad and the ugly - that’s what AVP is like. You get to see the good, the bad and the ugly of both Alien and Predator. Man, I dig that movie! And I did luck out in the marriage game btw, because I got the best one out there! Envy me:)

‘Tis the season and I can create a ‘love’ metaphor for just about anything:)

HEY YOU TWO. AUGUST RUSH AIN’T NO CHICK FLICK. ITS A VERY MANLY MOVIE. MY WIFE RHONDA CALLS IT MY SENSITIVITY TRAINING. I’M MAKING HER SOMETHING CORNY AND WRITING HER A SMUSHY CARD. DANCING IN THE DINING ROOM.
