A brain dump if you will.<\/p>\n<p>Starting with some TV &amp; Movie thoughts&#8230;<br \/>\n&#8211; I officially stopped watching <i>Ringer<\/i>. I couldn&#8217;t stay engaged. Not even the eye candy that is <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/name\/nm0344435\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ioan Gruffudd<\/a> could save it for me. That&#8217;s just sad.<br \/>\n&#8211; But I&#8217;ve quickly replaced it with <a href=\"http:\/\/beta.abc.go.com\/shows\/once-upon-a-time\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Once Upon a Time<\/a>. This show is miles better. MILES. I&#8217;m a sucker for fairy tales anyway so this spin on the genre is so interesting to me. Plus, I&#8217;m kinda loving all the little nods they give to each story &#8212; like in the most recent episode featuring Cinderella, Henry racing to beat Regina home and losing a sneaker on his way up the stairs. I see what you did there, show. All in all, good stuff.<br \/>\n&#8211; OMG. Has everyone seen the <a href=\"http:\/\/insidemovies.ew.com\/2011\/11\/14\/the-hunger-games-trailer\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Hunger Games trailer<\/a>? I&#8217;m a fan of the books, particularly the first one, so this trailer has made me unbelievably excited. I especially love how it focuses on the set up and ends with the countdown. I got CHILLS.<\/p>\n<p>And some random personal notes&#8230;<br \/>\n&#8211; Just under TWO WEEKS until our trip to Orlando &amp; Miami. The days can&#8217;t go by fast enough.<br \/>\n&#8211; I was bored with my hair so I decided to get another digital perm. I suck at styling my hair so YAY for easy &#8220;wash and go&#8221; styles.<br \/>\n&#8211; I convinced Rob to bust out the Christmas tree and decorations over the weekend. YES, I realize we haven&#8217;t celebrated Thanksgiving yet. But since we&#8217;re not hosting for our respective families this year AND we&#8217;ll be on vacation after the holiday, I figure we might as well get as much use of the decor as possible. At least that&#8217;s what I&#8217;m telling myself.<br \/>\n&#8211; Because this entry is all text, here&#8217;s a random (and LOL-worthy) pic of us playing our new favorite game <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Dance-Central-2-Xbox-360\/dp\/B0050SYYEK\/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1321343321&amp;sr=8-1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Dance Central 2<\/a>&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><center><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/ever-lasting.net\/temp\/dancecentral2.jpg\" border=\"0\"><br \/>\n<\/center><\/p>\n<p>FUN FUN.
