Birthdays, Movies, Basketball, Car, Toilet, and Baby Name!

It’s been awhile since I last blogged.  But the past two weeks have been killer!

Cinch and girlsStarted off with Cinch’s 25th birthday with friends at Centennial Park in Coronado with a BBQ during the Red Bull Air Race.  It was definitely a good time.  Maybe next time though, I won’t get up at 4 a.m. to hold a spot.  LOL.

Cinch and boysAnd then Cynthia and I saw Star Trek.  Awesome movie, considering I never really was a Trekkie.  I’ll definitely see more if they decide to keep it going.  Speaking of movies, Cynthia has especially enjoyed watching movies lately now that she’s pregnant.  She says it’s like watching everything in 4-D because the baby moves inside of her whenever there’s an explosion or other loud noise.  LOL.

We also saw X-men Origins.  It was okay.  Thought it could have been better, I had higher expectations.  Seemed a bit short too.  It really had nothing to do with the other X-men movies so if you skip this one, it’s not a bad thing.

Artest and KobeWe’ve also been watching A LOT of playoff basketball, thanks to the invention of DVR.  Seriously, we don’t watch the commercials, it’s awesome!  Wished the Bulls beat the Celtics–they still got a lot of maturing to do, but watch out for them next year.  If Gordon can chill out and Rose can step up, they got a pretty good thing going for them.

Other team I’m rooting for of late has been the Rockets.  Most of you already know that I’m a huge T-mac and Yao fan, but this whole Laker/Rockets thing is interesting.  Brooks is like the Darren Sproles of the Rockets.  I wouldn’t be surprised if they go into game 7 this weekend with an upset, even without Yao and T-mac.

But of course, I wouldn’t mind if the Lakers advance.  Actually, I hope they do.  So that Lebron and Ilgauskus (Cinch’s fave) and the rest of the Cavs can kick their asses!  I don’t know–this Laker team really irks me. But–that’s another blog.

Car updates–We got Cinch’s car windows tinted so now I don’t mind being in the driver seat of her car so much.  Lol.  Also, her car broke down.. really random.  But we got that fixed, eventually.  Both of our parents sort of got involved and made it all more complicated than it needed to be.  *sigh*

Toilet.  This is awesome.  So for the past couple weeks, we’ve noticed that the toilet has been leaking.  Not leaking outside, but back into the bowl, so it wasn’t a big deal.  But then it got to the point where we couldn’t sleep because of the dripping noise.  Soo…  Thanks to Google..  I was able to take out all the old, broken down parts and install brand new inner-workings of a toilet! Haha, I’m so proud of myself.  Mario and Luigi ain’t got nothing on me!

T-678And as I wrap this up, there’s still so much to look forward to:  Friends and family’s birthdays and graduations.  Watching Terminator Salvation with our very own Resistance team.  More NBA playoffs basketball.  Just got my car cleaned and looking all new.  More baby appointments.  Baby showers to plan–yes, I said showers with an “S”.

And by the way, we’ve come up with a name for our baby.  But we’re not telling anybody yet.  Lol.
