On Friday, we saw The Change-Up, and I can't figure out why it got somewhat of a bad rap when it came out. Granted, it wasn't on our must-see ASAP list, and the only reason we watched it was because we had free tickets for an older movie, but it was quite entertaining. There were some cheap laughs and funny situations. The meaning of life was not imparted, and the outcome was predictable, but the journey was laugh-out-loud satisfying.

No other movies on our radar at the moment, but later this week, we'll go to an advance screening of Warrior, and then we're looking forward to Real Steel.

Until then, more Deus Ex!

Next month, we're heading to New York for a little vacation, which we coincided with the US Open tennis tournament, so we had planned to see our favorite Kim Clijsters in her bid to defend her title. We have our plane tickets and tickets to the women's final, only to find out this week that she will not be competing due to a lingering injury. Talk about bad timing!

Yesterday was spent lounging around, running some errands, and going out to a fancy dinner, after which we made a failed attempt at watching The Green Hornet. This is the second time we've dozed off while watching it. The movie is not too bad, though it's a little weak.  In our defense, though, there was wine involved.

Later today, we might watch The Change-up, since we have free tickets to redeem toward an older movie.

These short vacations are brutal. Too much eating all the time!

Today we saw House on the Rock, which is equally fascinating and impressive as it is disturbing. Built by Alex Jordan, the House on the Rock is quite literally that, a HUGE house on a mountainside with room after room decorated with specific collections ranging from dozens of dollhouses, hundreds of guns, the world's largest indoor carousel and other creepy items (a pickled head, for instance).

Afterward, we had a picnic/BBQ by the lake, which of course had my undivided attention, and then dinner at a local dive bar/fish fry place. We're stuffed...

By the time we got back home, the locusts were out in full force!
