Casino Royale

Went to see Casino Royale the other night at the Arlington Cinema and Drafthouse - I didn't have much in the way of expectations but I had heard it was good. Well - I must say, after that first action sequence I was hooked and Daniel Craig instantly became the hottest man alive (which surprised me!). He is so freakin smoking in that movie that I just want to jump on him. I was prompted to write this entry because I have seen a few commercials for the DVD this evening and every time I saw it I literally felt my loins boiling - physically turned-on as if he just grabbed me and threw me against the wall and started ravaging me. Totally insane!! Perhaps it is because it's been more than a while since I've gotten any or perhaps he is just so fuckin gorgeous as Bond that I want to pounce instantly.

Either way, the movie blew my doors off - it was awesome and probably one of the best Bond movies made (when you don't factor in the original more silly format, which I love also - big Connery years fan!). He pulls the role off so well and the confidence he brings to Bond is so hot (not to mention his perfect body, me-ow!). I highly recommend everyone to see it - I will be purchasing it just so I can re-watch it and stare at his manly goodness on a very regular basis.

Worth

People's wealth and worth are very rarely related. - Malcolm Forbes

I like this quote. Makes me feel like my poor ass is actually worth something!! ;)

I'm terrible at updating....

I have no job and yet I still forget to even write a blog. I guess part of it is because I feel like no one reads it so I could just write in a journal and it would be the same effect for me. But I want to write more here, so I will be better. Let me update what's been going on:

I quit my job at BSC and last day was Jan 17. I then packed my life back up (again!) and moved back to DC where I feel I belong more-so than Cali. My brother and I drove across country which was fine - the best part was going to visit Gordon's parents in Michigan and then venturing into Canada to see Niagara Falls. I am glad we made those stops. I also saw Chicago for the first time in my life and I really want to go back when it is warmer to explore the neighborhoods. Really big city!

I made it back to CT just in time to see Amy's newborn, which I was really really happy about. It was so good to see her and I'm so excited for her now that she's a mommy. I envy what she has - her life right now is a lot of what I've always wanted for myself (a loving, unconditional husband, a house close to family, working from home, starting a family with the man she loves) - I am so happy for her and hope someday I am as lucky as she is. But that someday is far away - marriage and babies have no place in my world right now... I need a job and to get my health situated before I would even think about dating again.

So now here I am back in Virginia. I am really glad to be back, I'm just getting a bit bored waiting to hear about a job. I have some connections I am hoping will come through and I've otherwise applied to jobs online, which don't seem so promising. We'll see what happens... but I can't be unemployed too long otherwise I'll go broke!!! Esp bc Dan and Gordon and I are moving into our new home on March 20th and I will need to pay rent once my savings runs out (which is going quick with my student loans sucking the life out of me!).

Anyone want to give me a job??? Anyone even reading this? I didn't think so. Haha.

Soooo... my life now consists of sleeping, cooking, and LOTS and LOTS of Wii. I am addicted to Wii Sports and I spend many hours playing. I'm now at Pro level for Tennis and Bowling.... yeah, I truly have no life!!! Today I cooked up a new recipe - a Turkey Meatloaf. It was quite healthy and with a salad on the side it became a very fulfilling meal. I generally hate regular meatloaf, but this did not have any of the traditional ingredients. I substituted wheat germ for oatmeal or breadcrumbs and used lots of shredded zucchini in the mixture. I even sneaked some fennel seed powder into the sauce for the added health benefits. Dan claimed he could taste it, but I guarantee he couldn't with the red wine, tomatoes, garlic, and other spices mixed in. Either way, it was yummy and now I'm babbling!!! What else is there to do?? I ain't got no job!!!!

I have lots of stories to add from before I left San Francisco which I will write about soon enough. This is plenty of updating for now!
