Today is supremely busy with it being the 4th of July. Happy Birthday, America!
Because of that, I’m sure I won’t get my exercising in, but we’ll see. I’m holding no hope though. After the fireworks I’ll attempt to do my strength training though. We’ll see.
I’m doing great today! I made it through the worst temptation ever. We went to the theatre and we got absolutely NOTHING. No popcorn, no soda, definitely no candy. Go me! I did eat some peaches when I got home as I was feeling the snack monster knocking. I ate a light lunch so we could race to the movie, so it is all good.
I’m doing great as far as my calorie intake for today. I’m doing awful for protein. I figure dinner will solve that issue though! Carbs are creeping up fast though. I’m still under my target span though, so we’ll see. My fat levels are very low.
Let’s see how bad dinner kills me. Currently my levels are:
Calories: 575
Carbs: 102
Fat: 14
Protein: 12
Woot!
We’re heading over to a friend’s house in a bit. She’s got someone licensed to shoot fireworks so apparently there’s to be a “show”. Suits me just right because I have no desire to deal with city traffic. Though a part of me thinks I’m a bad Aunt for not taking my nephew to see fireworks in DC. The traffic is just so nightmarish that I do NOT want to deal with it. Seriously. Last time I went there were far less people here. It still took four hours one way. Four hours to go 55 miles is NOT my idea of fun. And honestly, it wasn’t worth it. Maybe Clinton was just unpatriotic. Or maybe DC fireworks really do suck. My town does just great over our river. Humph.
Happy 4th to you all!

No popcorn at the theatre! I’m shocked. Shocked. 😉 Popcorn is the best part of going out to the theatre.

It seems like an abomination. But we got there late, had just eaten lunch, were really broke, especially after paying for the tickets… so we decided to forgo everything. I had a bottle of water… ROFL. The movie was pretty good. We saw transformers

The prices at the theatre are an abomination, too! I don’t know what your prices are like, here tickets are around $10, then a small drink and buttered popcorn is over $10.
Oh Transformers looks good. I’d like to see it.

We go to the matinee for the cheap seats. 6.75 for adults, 6.50 for kids. Yuck. I don’t know how much it is for adults for evening prices. Whatever it is, we can’t afford that for sure. It’s a shame because I really prefer the theatre experience. We’d go more if the tickets weren’t so outrageous. In fact in the summer we go to a ton of movies because the theatres here show older kid movies for free. Two a week. And we have two different theatres. So like this week we saw Happily N’Ever After. HEHE

There are theatre’s that show movies for about $3.75, as well. They’re just not as fancy and play months after the main places. Free movies is a good deal. 🙂
I can’t wait for OotP!!

Re: HAHA.. I know!
yeah we used to have a cheap theatre like that. I don’t mind waiting. (Hence the free movies thing loving in this home) I’m really excited because one of the upcoming movies is Night at the Museum. I really want to see that on the big screen! So yay! HEHE We own the DVD… haha but haven’t watched it because i got it and then the list came out. Well why spoil myself???? HEHEHE
I don’t know that we are going to make it to OotP at the theatre. It’s just so expensive. You better believe we’ll try!
I can’t believe the new book is almost ready to come out!!!!!

New movie! new book! I’m beside myself with anticipation. We’ll go to the movie because I have a gift certificate for Galaxy, also enough for popcorn. 😉 So yay.
I look forward to the book and yet I don’t want it to end. And I just have to wonder what will happen to the Professor! I can’t even think about it. lol

We’ll probably attempt to make it to the movie, but it’s just so expensive so I don’t know. SIGH. I’m torn about the book. I’m kind of tired of Harry. The last couple of books he’s driven me nuts. I do wonder about Snape. My personal theory is that he and dumbledore planned everything. Possibly even faked it… But I definitely think that Dumbledore knew that Snape woudl do it. I think that Snape wanted to save Malfoy from making a HUGE mistake he’d never be able to take back. I can’t wait to read the book though!

My interest in the books is tied to Snape, the most interesting and complex character to grow from the series. Is he loyal to Dumbledore or Voldemort? It really doesn’t matter to me, however, I do believe his actions are out of loyalty to Dumbledore working as a double agent. I agree that Snape had to save Draco mainly because of his vow with Narcissa. Oh it is interesting to think of what might go down now.
I should re-read THBP.

Snape is definitely the most interesting character. But I’m kind of partial to those chaotic characters. 🙂 They take more thought!
I should re-read as well. Both OotP and THBP. One for the movie, the other to get ready for the new book. But I just don’t have the time right now. 😦
