Make A Move, Iceman

Yay! X-Men III didn't suck!

Of course it wasn't perfect, and it was as close to the Dark Phoenix Saga as X2 was to God Loves Man Kills, but really, I'd rather have that than having to explain the Shi'ar Empire, the Starjammers, a cosmic entity that destroys worlds, Jean imagining herself in colonial America and whatnot in a Hollywood movie. An appearance by the Hellfire Club would've been cool though. I actually preferred 'the cure' storyline to Phoenix's. Bryan Singer, that Superman flick better be worth it.

The key to happiness is lowered expectations. And Girls Who Rock. That and X-men are my two favorite things. Yay for Wednesday!

Oh, and I love you, Shadowcat.

Geek moment over.

It's a busy week, and I don't just mean about work. After Wednesday's trip, I've got a wedding reception and a baby shower/birthday and maybe something over at All Is Beautiful Here this weekend. And before that I need to do some shopping. Maybe work a bit over the weekend. And go to the gym before it feels like giving my money away to the Fitness First Charity Fund.

Had another activity this week, which was bowling. Since I don't really bowl, it's then required for me to make fun of it. Here are my corny ideas for monickers for professional bowlers:
  • The Assassin
  • Iceman (for grace under pressure sportsmen, like early Kimi)
  • Cannonball
  • The Destroyer
  • The Cobra (for bowlers with custom-made bowling balls with the "trapped snake" design. Must "hiss" after every strike)
  • Kingpin (naturally)
  • Mr. Turkey
