Music and movies and stuff

Now that we’re not showing the house anymore, (we have an offer, so we get to do the song and dance with the bank while they think about approving it), I can bring my music equipment back out. I was having great fun with the Gretsch and pedals tonight before the boys decided it was their turn…

So cute. All those lights, buttons and knobs to play with, I don’t have the heart to stop them.

So, my internet shy friend and I went to the movies last night and saw Snow White and the Huntsman. Surprisingly, Kristen Stewart was fine. She didn’t bug me. I’d even say she did a good job. We, of course, went to see Chris Hemsworth because he’s beautiful. And he did NOT get enough screen time, which was tragic.

The movie wasn’t very good, however it COULD have been. There was a lot of potential there. If they’d spent more time and effort on story telling (and Chris Hemsworth) and less on crazy computer effects and trying to gross out the audience, it could have been really, really good.

But we had fun just the same. My internet shy friend is a very fun movie companion. She doesn’t mind my snarky comments and audible ogling during the film.
