Randomness

I have a lot of random thoughts and not sure how to make them all into one cohesive blog entry. Maybe bullet points and hyperlinks are my best option.
  • I finally named my car! I wasn't really trying to name it, or even concerned with the fact that it didn't have a name. But as I was driving to work, I caught a glimpse of my car's shadow and it dawned on me: Fiona! FYI, my last car's name was Shrek, because the shadow looked like him, with the side mirrors as his ears and all. It made me laugh, so it stuck. So when I saw my new car's shadow, it still looked a little like an ogre, so....she shall henceforth be named Fiona. I like it.

  • Since her single came out, I have been adamantly boycotting Lady Gaga. Everytime I heard the song on the radio, or heard her name, I immediately changed the station. It was mostly based on her ridiculous factor, plus the snippet that I'd heard of her song didn't seem like something I would enjoy. But the other day I decided to give her a chance... I listened to the song when it came on the radio, and yes, it was dumb. But it wasn't that bad. I have to admit, it's catchy. And I'm very entertained by the twang in her voice when she says "dance".
    But now....EVERY SINGLE TIME I get in the car, I hear that damn song. If it wasn't annoying the first time, it's definitely annoying now. Here's hoping that she comes out with another single before the boycott is back on.

  • In other, slightly related news, I am totally in love with Ne-Yo. If you haven't listened to him, you really, really should. It's a little hard to admit, but my love for him is starting to rival Jason's. (I can't help it...his voice is so smooth and his dancing is so sexy! Plus, Jason is starting to get a little 'out there'. You know it's true!)
    My mom went to see Ne-Yo in concert on Friday in California. I honestly don't think I've ever been so jealous of something in my entire life. And for some absurd reason, he will not be making a stop in Denver. So sad. But at least she sent me pictures and videos so I can pretend like I was there. :)

  • On Friday, Steve and I went to see Coraline: 3D. It was pretty good. The animation was really neat. But the story, which was by Tim Burton, was a little creepy. I definitely wouldn't take any children to this movie, unless you want them to have nightmares about psycho mommies and dolls with button eyes... Mostly, we went because it was in 3D. And we are huge 3D nerds. (as evidenced in the picture below...)

Okay, maybe we're just huge nerds. But I don't care, I love us. :)

Fiona!! Nice, I love that. :)

Ne-Yo more than Jason? Wow. I never thought that would happen.
