round one goes to the microwave

You can't make candles hastily... Apparently the change in temperature after the microwave leads to the glass shattering. Neat.

Steve Irwin passed away yesterday

Steve Irwin, the Crocodile Hunter, died yesterday while he was filming a show he was making with his 8-year old (child wasn't with him at the time), and he came across a stingray and came up behind it and it stung him and he died instantly. They tried to rush him to the hospital but it was too late. I'm saddened by this, even though I didn't watch his show that often because we don't have good channels, but he had young kids and a wife, and he was only 44.

i'm excited for tomorrow!

So, tomorrow is the orientation stuff for school! I'm a little nervous, because I'll be on crutches, but I think it'll go well. If nothing else, I'll start sitting on the grass if my leg gets to be too much, and prop it up on something.

What I wanted to tell you is, unless you have oodles of spare time and you don't want to do a lot of thinking, then don't rent "Just My Luck". I thought I'd give Lindsay Lohan one more chance, but boo on this movie. Besides the guy being kind of cute, that was really all it had going for it. It's definitely more of a kids movie, like 10 year olds and such. I was disappointed. If they'd just spun it a little more seriously, instead of giving it the "Freaky Friday" kind of switching luck, then I would've liked the movie... but the instant it became so easy for them to switch luck... then it became not realistic, and I lost interest. I like movies that are more believable. So, if you need a bit of a laugh and not much more substance, rent that movie, but otherwise, please DON'T.
