Friday Fun

I've decided to start a new tradition of blog posts on Friday to detail all the fun things I'll be doing in the upcoming week. I thought this would be something fun to start doing and it will help me keep up with the blog.

This weekend I will be doing some much needed relaxing. It's just something that needs to be done when you're 38 weeks pregnant. Tomorrow the hubby and I will be going out to breakfast with my sister and I have nothing planned after that.

I plan on staying pregnant until at least May 1st, I'm probably the only pregnant woman that wants to stay pregnant this far in the game. I want to stay pregnant because The Avengers: Age of Ultron comes out on May 1st, with advanced showings on April 30th. I have not missed a Marvel advanced showing since the first Iron Man came out, so I need to see this movie. Obviously my daughter is going to come when she wants, but I hope she's a superhero nerd like her mother so she'll want to stay put.

I have decided to start with Iron Man and work my way up to Guardians of the Galaxy before Thursday, as long as I don't go into labor between now and then. I am hoping to get through Iron Man and Iron Man 2 tonight and then I can watch the rest this weekend.

I really am looking forward to the baby coming, don't get me wrong, but I was also really hoping for a May baby.  If all of this could work out that way, it would be wonderful!

So aside from all this fun stuff I have nothing really going on. I hope that these posts get more and more fun every Friday because this one seems kinda of boring. Oh well. Hope you enjoyed this post and will stick around for the others.

What are you doing this weekend?

Frozen

So, yesterday was a snowy Saturday here in New England. Hubby and I decided to go to the movies because we needed to get out of the house. Since it was snowing we decided to go see Frozen. I've been wanting to see this movie since it came out in November. We've just been so busy that we haven't had time to go to the movies. I was really happy that there were still showings.

I thought the movie was great! The songs were catchy and I'm still singing them! I even downloaded the soundtrack. I thought that it was a great story and I loved that the two main characters were sisters, I have a special place in my heart for sister stories. I  will even admit that I teared up a bit.

I had read that people were saying that this was the best Disney movie since The Lion King. I thought that it was really good but there were a lot of movies since The Lion King that were great. I loved the special cameo with Rapunzel and Flynn at the coronation (keep your eyes peeled or you might miss them).

I will definitely be buying this on Blu-Ray when it comes out in March. I also can't wait to get my picture with Anna and Elsa when we go back to Disney World in May.

Have you seen Frozen? What did you think?

Kids Today

"These kids today don't know what it's like to..." 

It's how I've been feeling lately, OLD.  I don't know why, maybe it's the holidays and having to work so much lately.  This time of year is always busy at work and it's hard to keep a positive attitude. So I made an impulse buy last week to cheer me up. I bought the Boy Meets World Complete Series.

I started watching it this weekend and I'm already on season 3! It's such a good show and I can honestly say that I am enjoying reliving a little bit of my youth.

It has gotten me thinking though. They just don't make tv shows like they used to. I don't really watch a lot of shows for younger people but I'm pretty sure there are no shows like this one. Shows "back in the day" always had a lesson in them along with the comedy. They were just something that the whole family could watch together. Don't even get me started on how much I miss TGIF! Great programming at it's best.

For now I will just sit back and enjoy the rest of the series!

What were some of your favorite shows growing up?

The Wolverine - Review

So I didn't have time this morning to write my review before work this morning.  Sorry for that, but here is my thoughts on the movie.  Don't worry, no spoilers.
As I said in my previous post, I am a huge Marvel geek.  The X-Men have some of my favorite Marvel characters and Wolverine is at the top of that list.
When I first saw the trailer for this newest Wolverine movie I must say, I was confused.  I think it was the whole traveling to Japan thing that I was unsure about.  But I was pleasantly surprised by how the film turned out.
It had it's ups and downs and slow parts, which every movie has.  I mean, you can't make everyone happy.  But I enjoyed the story and the action was amazing!  I don't really want to give anything away but I liked the fusion between the normal Wolverine style of fighting and the Japanese ninjas and samurai.  There is a fight scene on a bullet train that was really exciting.
Don't forget to stay after the movie finishes through the credits because there is a scene that hints towards the X-Men movie that comes out next May.
Did you see the movie yet?  What are your thoughts?

Movie Time

Tonight is the night!  It's movie premier time!!  I love going to midnight showings of new movies.  In my little neck of the woods we have showings before midnight so I'm going at 10:00. Tonights movie is The Wolverine and I cannot wait.
I have loved Marvel since I was a kid and have always loved the X-Men.  I have read some really good reviews about this newest Wolverine movie so I have really high hopes about this.
I will hopefully have a review up tomorrow, probably in the morning, after I have a little bit of sleep.
Are you planning on seeing this movie this weekend or another movie?

The Doctor

Late last week I was introduced to Doctor Who.
I know, I know, I'm a little late to the game, but let me say, it's amazing!  It's a really hard show to describe but for those that have watched it there is no other.
I started it last Thursday and I haven't been able to stop watching it.  I am already on season three!!
I am on the tenth Doctor, who is my favorite so far.  David Tennant is just brilliant!!
I love the whole idea of the show and the character relationships are wonderful!
