Max Payne DVD review

maxpayne

Well unfortunately, Chris and I are not only not getting better, we are both getting worse. He is home from work for the third day in a row, and now he's coughing up green gunk, and so weak he can hardly stand. My throat is irritated and it hurts at the top of my chest when I cough. I really, REALLY hope we can both beat this soon because it is exhausting to be sick and try to parent three kids too. I have no energy to do anything except lay on the couch and watch DVDs. One recent movie I watched was "Max Payne", the 2-Disc Special Edition, starring Mark Wahlberg.

Pizza Elbow Blogroll

I'm so glad it's Friday! Tonight is Pizza and Video Games night, and Chris got Xbox Live credit from a friend for Christmas and used it to buy a bunch of new albums for Rock Band. We'll be jamming to Rush's Moving Pictures right after we have our new Naturals Pizza from Pizza Hut, courtesy of the fine folks at the Zeno Group, who would like me to review it :) I have a big jumble of thoughts in my head today, they are like a tangle of vines keeping me from staying focused on any one thing. I keep bouncing back and forth from Gmail to Outlook to Bloglines, to...oooh, look! something shiny! Be prepared for a bunch of randomness: I've been actually reading feeds in Bloglines today, instead of just marking them all as "Read" and feeling guilty about it. It's been like catching up with old friends, although I hope when they see my comments they don't forget who I am. Elizabeth? Who? Didn't she stop reading my blog 3 months ago? Yeah. Guilty as charged. I got so swept up from about … [Read more...]
