What did you do on your summer vacation?

Me, I went on a sweet camping trip that involved hidden waterfalls/caves. I'm trying to wrangle photos to get them on here. We'll see. Also, I've read nearly a dozen books, one was of course Harry Potter... 'nuf said; I've gone to the drive-in three times, always a good time; and my guilty pleasure Big Brother was on again, I love that trainwreck. Good times really. I've been busier at work than I would like, meaning less time for friends but that can be remedied.

So let's here it friends. What were you doing this summer while I wasn't looking?

Side note: Office Season 3 comes out on September 4th and premieres on the 27th... wheeeeeeeeeee!

Desert Island Movies

Okay. Ashley has thrown down the gauntlet and I'm not one to back down from a challenge. So here goes, my top five desert island movies...

1. White Christmas - Yes, I watch it all year long and never get tired of it. "Where'd you leave that? In your snood?"

2. When Harry Met Sally - Comic genius: "You know, I have a theory that hieroglyphics are just an ancient comic strip about a character named Sphinxy."
-or-
Jess: "Baby talk"!? That's not a saying.
Harry: Oh, but "baby fish mouth" is sweeping the nation? I hear them talking.

3. Apollo 13 - I love the high-pressure, last-minute, problem-solving to get oxygen. All of NASA coming together to bring those men home. It's a great moment in history. And who hasn't said, "Houston we have a problem."

4. Princess Bride - Really, 'nough said.

5. National Treasure - I love the race through American histroy to solve the puzzle. I'm a sucker for history, what can I say?

Creed Thoughts

Oh, how I miss The Office.

If you are an intelligent human being who enjoys a good laugh, then you have inevitably tuned into The Office on NBC. I am currently having some withdrawal issues. I'll be the first to admit I didn't want to give the US version a chance. It wasn't like they were even trying to use the BBC premise and build off ot it, they flat out copied it. However, I caved. Derek brought over the DVD's and we watched them straight through, all 9.7 hours of them, until nearly 4am. And I was hooked. And season 3 was still running so I just kept on watching. I don't like having to wait.

So what's a girl to do during re-run season? Watch season 1 & 2 on DVD until you wearout the dics? Well I've done that! Now what!? Why visit Creed's blog of course.

Conveniently located at: www.creedthoughts.gov.www\creedthoughts you no longer have to wait for you Office fix. This week's featured topic... Crab Apples. A side note from Creed:

Side Note: Crab apples have nothing to do with real crabs. I don’t want to get into some kind of lawsuit because you made an idiotic assumption, so I’m setting the record straight right now. Crab apples contain no actual crabmeat. There you go.

And there you go. Only 27 days until season 3 on DVD and 50 days until the one-hour season premiere. I'm giddy just thinking about it.

I really think it's the next generation that has it made. Just think of all the great shows that will be out on DVD that they get to watch free of commercials, re-runs, threats of cancellations, and the endless waiting for the next season to start. Spoiled brats! I just don't have the will power to wait until a show is completely out on DVD, I have to see it before someone spoils it for me.
