Couldn't sleep, so I got up to check my email. No emails, so I felt like blogging.

This week went by kind of quickly. Wasn't too horrible for being first week back from break. On wednesday I ended up seeing Starsky and Hutch for a second time, and yes, it's still funny. I think I'm going to buy it when it comes out. Friday we had showdown. Our band's performance was it's usual crap. We played Pirates of the Carribbean with wind1 after that, and it was better than any of our other performances but still wasn't very good.

Weekend was relaxing. Saturday I had Laura over. Sunday my mom was out and it was just me here with my sisters. I took them to see Home on the Range. My review in a nutshell:

It doesn't suck as much as you think.

Give it a chance. Yes, it was made for children. Yes, the plot makes very little sense. Yes, the Disney Feature Animation division is going to hell in a handbasket. But, it was entertaining, and it kept me laughing almost the entire movie. Given a little more effort it could have been another Emperor's New Groove. As long as you can suspend your disbelief (there are cows doing matrix moves, horses jumping onto rooftops and down canyons, and hypnotic disco yodeling), there is a strong chance you will enjoy it too. I also thought the integretion between 2d and 3d animation was beautiful. Best I've seen Disney do it. I'd give it a 6.5 out of 10.

Aight, I'm gonna try to go back to sleep now. Goodnight.
