More Behavior Testing.

More behavior testing.
More odd results I have to come up
with an explanation for.
Here is some stuff found in my boredom.
I was inspired by Paul Krassner's Disney Parody below.
Nothing as good was found, but here are some funny ones to share.


In 1967, Paul Krassner published Mad artist Wally Wood’s parody as a centerspread for his satirical magazine, The Realist, and then as a poster.

Here are some other Disney parodies.






In other news...TODAY IS HARRY POTTER DAY!!!!!!
Will post all about tonight's silliness tomorrow!!!

Now I'm going to finish behavior
and GET OUT OF HERE!!!!

Cheer Up.

Its been a few days.
They haven't been crazy,
but they have been plenty busy.
Saturday I went to lunch with Jess at Zea's Rotisserie.
VERY good.
The prices for dinner may not be worth it,
but for lunch it was a great meal.
I had veal with sweat snap peas
and buttered sweet potato!
YUMMY...just writing about it makes me want some now!

Currently I'm waiting to do behavior and inject some ratty rats.
Yuck!

Then after lunch Jess and I saw
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.
LOVED it!!!
SO much better than the other movies.
I liked it so much I went with Katy and Haylie
to try and see it at the IMAX theater in Covington.
Unfortunately the IMAX showing was sold out.
Boo.

But we saw it on the regular screen again,
which I didn't mind so much.
I really liked it!
It was dark and intense.
I'm so glad the kids are growing up.
Rupert Grint was pretty cute too!
I hadn't really noticed him before.

Before:


After:

I couldn't find a very good pic online...:-(

There are also more nuiances to the film
Now I can't wait for the 7th book!
Though I may just need to skip to 6 and read fast.
I've been really bad about just picking up the books.
Plus I've been busy too.

I'm trying to finish up the first batch of
secondary applications.
Seriously, the University of Minnesota has 12 questions!
I mean...come on!
But New Jersey only had two, so I went ahead and got that one done.
I just need to reread and get the courage to turn it in.

I did those Saturday afternoon.
At this point Ashley had come in.
She stayed with me that night
and then we moved her in to her new place Sunday.
Then we moved her into her new new place Monday.
But I was treated to Baskin Robbins...woot woot.

Though weird things happened.
We were sitting outside Baskins
and a couple approached us.
They were asking for money,
wife had surgery,
kicked out of brother's house,
need $27 for a motel.

I think in the past I would have ignored them.
But I've been on a social justice kick.
And even if they were lying,
to put your pride aside and ask,
they probably really needed it.
I gave them the $7 in my wallet.

Even now, part of me is thinking,
why?
But even if I was taken advantage of,
atleast I feel like a decent person for trying to take care of our society.
Now I am bummed out.
I can't wait to finish these rats.

I'm supposed to get together with Jenny tonight.
Which means no reading today.
Argh! I love seeing everyone and having a life,
but I am such a loner!!!
I think if I had just had one afternoon this weeekend
I wouldn't be feeling quite so edgey.
Plus work doesn't make me any happier.

So all my Rainbow Brite stuff here...is to make me happy!
Because I feel more like Stormy.


I want to feel like this:



Toooo funny...and perfect!
She could SOOOOOO make that movie!
And I would totally buy a ticket!!!

Why, hello there?

What a surprise!
I woke up from my nap
and was debating ordering Fresco's
when we heard a knock on the door.
Who is it?
Why it's my mother!

They drove all the way from Graceland
to New Orleans today.
Coincidently my phone ran out of batteries.
Thus, it was charging, on off mode
while I napped.

It worked out really well though.
We went out to Superior Grill.
(Seriously, I've spent way too much time there this summer!)
No margaritas tonight.
but that is A-ok with me.
It was soooo good seeing them.
Sometimes you just need a hug!

It reminds me of this moment from the Chipmunks adventure.

Unfortunately this version is with real voices.
Its cuter in the Chipmunk, overdosed on Helium voice,
but the idea is pretty clear...
I love my mother!

Well...good night!

PS...HP OOTP is officially out today!!
Must call Katy and get to movie theater!!!

Sublime.

Summertime...and the livin's easy.

Maybe too easy.
No work yesterday,
and all I did was lounge about.
Today was pretty much more of the same.
Though I did manage to get up and go to the UC.
I had chicken tenders and diet coke for lunch.
Then I read and caught up with some people on the phone.

Plans with Jenny fell through tonight.
I hate not having a car.
Boo!
Though it did give me the chance to upload my Sublime CD
AND mess with photoshop.

Lookie lookie!

Pretty! haha...or so I'd like to believe.

In fact, I find the above version a bit over done.
This version is my personal favorite.



Though this one is fun too.
I may even like the graphic background a little better than the fleur de lis.



Well...not too much to report.
I am now on page 509 of HP 4.
Only 225 more to go.
I really need to read HP 5 and 6 ASAP!
Those were really the ones I wanted to get to,
but alas, I just haven't moved as fast as I should have.
I'm hoping to finish HP 4 by Wednesday...
we'll see how busy I am....
HAHA!

Anyhooo...
listening to Sublime...
catch you later.

I don't practice Santeria
I ain't got no crystal ball
Well I had a million dollars,
but I,
I spent it all...

Summer Storm.

So much of the world fascinates me.
Incredible to think any of us have a place here.
Oak trees planted hundreds of years ago.
Attempting to be a doctor.
Wanting an office and a house.
Wanting to travel.
Wanting to make a family.
So much contradiction.
How does one enjoy their youth with all this?
Hard to make a decision.
That's the brave part.
Easy to stick to the path.
Scary not to succeed along it.
Scarier to stray from it.
Scariest not knowing what's next.

Storming outside.
Two hours now.
Lightning, thunder, the usual.
Got caught outside.
Hung out reading HP at Newcomb.
Decided to stay wet, buy Southern Pecan coffee and read some more at PJs.

Shola sleeps peacefully.
No trains this afternoon.
Time to turn in my AMCAS.
Scary.
