Yes. You read that right. I have a crush on a senior citizen. The sexiest senior citizen ever:
Sylvester Stallone is almost 65 years old (July 6th). How is it possible for a man of his age to be that hot? I don't know and I don't really care. ;)
Okay, so maybe I find older guys attractive anyway... but I didn't think I'd find someone 40 years my senior attractive!
Philip thinks it's hilarious. He says that beautiful Sly Stallone is my boyfriend. It's probably unnatural, but I'm okay with that. :D
It mostly started when we watched The Expendables. I mean, in the movie, he was gorgeous, tattooed, strong, and he fought for the girl even if it meant he might die. What's not to love??
Come on ladies! Surely I'm not alone. Even if it's not Stallone, have you ever had a crush on someone unusual?
I love Netflix. I've been a subscriber since April of 2008. It's a glorious company. I don't have cable or satellite, so when I want to watch television, I turn to my friend Netflix.
I have a Roku player that streams Netflix instantly. I can also stream from either of the 2 Xbox 360s in our house (master bedroom and the living room -- Philip is a super gamer!), the blu-ray player in the living room, or the Wii in the living room. Or, if I'm really desperate, I can stream from the laptop or the desktop computers. :D
So, you wouldn't think I would ever have any problems watching Netflix. BUT NETFLIX HAS BEEN DOWN FOR HOURS!!! It's killing me. I've switched sleep schedules so that I can be awake when Philip gets off work. That means that I have to sleep for a few hours when I get home from work.
To do that, I watch Law and Order: Special Victims Unit. It may seem strange, but that's what puts me to sleep. I have always liked to have something on the radio or television to fall asleep to. I've seen the SVU episodes so many times that I don't need to stay awake to watch them. I can fall asleep to them.
But, that's only when my Netflix is working! Which it's not. :( Hopefully it will be back up and running soon.
So, in conclusion, I highly recommend a Netflix subscription... but, be careful! You'll soon be addicted. ;)
A few weeks ago I blogged about my dislike of Rihanna. I am apparently very close to alone in that (I've got Philip on my side so boo-yah!).
It got me to thinking about music in general. I have very odd tastes. I like a little bit of everything. My playlist on my iPod is varied. I have everything from Marilyn Manson to Taylor Swift on there. Everytime I play the iPod while cleaning (using our awesome Bose!), I think that the neighbors must think I'm nuts.
So, even though I like a lot of different kinds of music, I also dislike music that is really popular. For instance, I think the two most overrated bands ever are the Beatles and the Rolling Stones. Seriously overrated. I mean, I can listen to some of the Beatles, but it's nowhere near as good as people pretend it is. The same goes for the Stones... except a lot of the music from the Stones, I just don't like at all.
There. I've said it. Now all of you crazy Beatles lovers out there can hate me. ;) I will still always know in my heart that Aerosmith is and will always be the greatest band ever. :D
Philip and I hadn't been to the movies since November (when we went to see Harry Potter). We both really like to go but there hadn't been a whole lot of movies that piqued our interest in the past few months. That changed this past weekend. I wanted to see either:
or
Well, we ended up going to see Battle: LA on Saturday night. It was so good! It's a really good war/battle movie. Even if you're not a huge sci-fi junkie, you will still enjoy the movie. I highly recommend it! :)
This past weekend was our first movie of the year, but it won't be the last. Next weekend we are going to see:
Yep. Philip's pick. ;) He loves Simon Pegg... and that other guy whose name I can't remember...
After that, we'll probably go see Red Riding Hood since we couldn't see it this past weekend. Then, the following are possibilities for April:
And, I'll definitely be at the theaters on April 29th for:
The following weekend (May 6th) will of course be spent watching:
And May 20th will be spent watching (and hoping for the best despite my thoughts that it will most likely be garbage):
And, despite what you may think, we won't be going to see Hangover II. We thought the first one was completely overrated.
Next up is one that I am really looking forward to. I tried to not watch the trailer for it because I didn't want to get my hopes up, but we saw a trailer when we went to the movies this past weekend. It looks so good:
June 17th will have us watching:
And we'll be going to see this one on June 24th (we love Jason Segel... plus it looks hilarious):
Of course, July will be a HUGE month for movies. I can't wait! July 1st is:
Megan Fox is gone, but I don't really care a whole lot about that. I'm guessing that the movie will be crap, but I still have to see it. After all, I thought the 2nd one would be crap, but I ended up really liking it.
July 15th is the end of an era:
Of course, I will be re-reading all of the books and re-watching all of the movies before we go to see this. And, we'll probably see it more than once. I can't wait!
July 23rd, we'll be seeing:
I'm not really a huge fan of Captain America and I don't think I'll like the movie that much, but we have to go see it anyway.
July 29th we'll be seeing:
Okay, so it sounds ridiculous. But, I have high hopes for this one. I love aliens. And, cowboys are cool, too. Plus, I really like Daniel Craig.
Then August and September are pretty meh. October will most likely have us watching Contagion and The Three Musketeers. And, the rest of the year is pretty meh as well. But 2012 will have us watching Ice Age 4 and The Dark Knight Rises. Oh, sweet Batman. :)
