King a Ling


I just watched the Movie King Arthur. I must say, I’m not a huge fan for movies set in the golden olden days, but, man, I really liked this one. It was about King Arthur and his Knights, and how they had to serve fighting for Rome for 15 years before they were free to live as they pleased. They were among the greatest warriors of their time, and were on the brink of freedom when Rome called them to one last battle. It was the battle of their lives. Armies of people teamed up that you wouldn’t expect, Battles were won by smarts because of being outnumbered, people were killed, people were rescued, and the coolest thing is, that this is based on a true Story.

This movie was so good that it made me want to live back in the day and be a knight!

On a Side note, one of my favorite parts of the movie was when I realized why traditionally king Arthur’s knights were called “knights of the round table,” because King Arthur promoted equality, and there is no head to the table.

Good Movie, Go watch it!

"Stephanie Off the Counter!!!" - Says Mom


I’m in my house with a girlfriend of mine and we are getting travel mugs to go down to the river with. You see we needed travel mugs because we were going to drink wine, and clearly we can bring a wine glass down to the river. I tried to reach my highest cupboards but I couldn’t. So I propped my self up on the counter, then the stove, and under my knee’s on the glass part of a flat top stove… Crack crack crack….

Can you believe it? I broke my FREKIN Stove.

I post this blog as an advisory warning. Listen to your parents, don’t sit on the counter. It comes with a very expensive price tag!

Please pass the Ketchup, I think its going to rain.


Some Random things that make me smile…
