The Life Aquatic

Watched The Life Aquatic last night. One of the best things about being in Utah is watching all the rated R movies from Clean Flicks.

Aquatic was a most random movie. A giant man-eating "jaguar" shark, a love interest with a pregnant woman, digitized sugar crabs, pirates, guns, explosions, red fishermans caps with matching speedos, an arch rival, island adventures, Bill Murray dances to beat-box music in a wet suit, and a redeeming oceanographic documentary from Team Zissou.

This pretty much means I loved it.

Anyone interested in buying a team t-shirt or red cap (no speedos yet) can get it here.

All I said was that they matched. The thing is they always talk about the speedos but never actually wear them in this movie. Oh, and did I mention everybody on the team got a matching gun?

Playing house

I have no idea how I got here. I spent so much time dating and being single and going through boyfriends and now here I am -- in my late 30's, married and with a baby on the way. Sometimes it doesn't feel real, like I'm playing house. Last night my husband and I ordered nursery furniture from Pottery Barn. We made a list of things we still need to get from Amazon and discussed the credit cards with the best points to put it on for travel miles and cash back bonuses. We have 401k's and a savings account and talk about stock investments. You'd think, at almost 40, I would feel like a responsible adult and this would all feel normal right now. It does not. Any moment I wonder when I'm going to wake up. There were times I thought maybe I'll never get married. I wondered if I'd be able to have children -- or get the chance to even try. This baby, so far, seems so healthy and so far I've felt healthy throughout the pregnancy. I'm blessed with go

Don't Touch My Junk

I am appalled that so many in my generation are ready and willing to roll over and be sexually assaulted (and let their children be sexually assaulted), give up their rights to privacy and ignore their rights as stated in the 4th Amendment all in the name of supposed security at airports. This new TSA measure is outrageous and ineffective. I did not always feel this way. Like so many others, I didn't see the big deal. However, on more careful examination of the 4th Amendment as well as the many, many assaults that have already taken place, and along with an understanding of the measures we really should be taking to ensure our safety, I have changed my mind. This video is of a man who recorded his experience going through TSA. He asked the TSA agent not to "touch his junk". That's when the TSA agent put him on the no fly list and asked him to step out of line. After questioning he then tried to leave the airport but was told he had to go through the entire procedu
