Up All Night- The Growing Prysocks

It was eerie trying to go to sleep last night. It was just so quiet and empty. I ended up waking up before my alarm, partially because Beesly felt the need to bark at every little noise.

I have decided to make a theme for tonight, because that's what one does when left a lone for a week. Perhaps if I give themes to my days it will slow the loss of sanity. Today's theme is "Assassins" because I'm watching Ninja Assassin and later I will be playing a new game called "Assassin's Creed II." I will also be assassinating my progress in losing weight by eating pizza. Not just any pizza! Store-brand BBQ recipe chicken pizza. The description on the box reads, "Add pizazz to pizza night with this sassy southern recipe!" I would be hard pressed to find a more awesome sounding description than that.

Ninja Assassin made the "Steph probably won't watch list" probably because of the graphic violence. So far, this was a good call. But there has been an awesome laundry room romance scene, reminiscent of Ross and Rachel on Friends. Except the chick was secretly a ninja and tried to kill the guy after pretending to ask for help folding a sheet. It didn't work out for her. So far I'm having trouble deciding whether this movie is about a ninja who is also an assassin, or about a guy who assassinates ninjas.

Remember how I described the abundance of frozen baked goods in the freezer? Well I may have made a fatal error. I've had it in mind to get a special treat for myself from the grocery store. So I came home with a giant tub of store-brand rainbow sherbet. (BTW, I totally thought that was spelled "sherbert" until a red squiggly line told me differently. So I had to wikipedia "sherbert" to verify. Sure enough, "sherbet" is an Americanized derivation of "sorbet." So I guess it should be pronounce "sher-bay," which means I have not only been spelling it wrong, but saying it wrong, too.) Anyway, the sherbay tub was too big and so I had to empty and rearrange the entire freezer.

The ninja guy is practicing with a weapon that is basically a really sharp knife at the end of a metal chain. Definitely not something Steph could watch without hiding her face for 90% of the movie.

I'm gonna finish this movie and have a sherbay float. Look for more stream of consciousness commentary on my life in the near future.
