Back in Callao, folks.  Alas - we are without internet, so I have to borrow my cousin's computer for a spell.  However, I have been using my internet-free day to catch up on some movies.  Here's the run-down:

1. Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull: Ummm... I should have watch the first three again before I started here (well - maybe just "Raiders" and "Last Crusade")  I'm only slightly confused.  What movie was this Marion chick in?  How many women does Indy have?  I mean - it's not James Bond or anything...

I just have to ask.  Aliens?  And Indiana Jones?  Mr. Lucas - are we just a little desperate for source material here?

Shia LaBeouf is NOT that cute.  I'm sorry - even with the motocycle and the jacket.  He's always going to be Louis Stevens to me.  Weird.

Harrison Ford is amazing as always.  So, I can't really blame him either.

2. Twilight:  I'm talking the movie here.  Not bad, actually.  For the movie (yes, the book is better - 9 times out of 10, it will be).  Quick story:  I wanted to read the first three before I started "Breaking Dawn" (which I have NOT started - any spoilers and I will disembowel you with a plastic fork).  Except I did not have my copy of "Twilight" handy.  So, I watched the movie, figuring that would tide me over until I could find it.  Well - it didn't.  And I had a copy of "New Moon" sitting on the shelf.  So, I figured, what the heck - and I read "New Moon," deciding to count the "Twilight" movie as having read the book (for now - hey, I want to get on with the ooey-gooey Breaking Dawn goodness).

3. Wall-E:  Baby sister's idea - and I need to find "Prince Caspian" (no one in my family had the foresight to purchase it.  Lame).  I quite liked it.  It's a Pixar movie - they're usually pretty good.  Even with the whole "Earth covered in garbage and humans escape it with their retarded-selfish-ideas" tree-hugger premise, Wall-E himself is a cutie.

4. Kung Fu Panda: Umm - lost interest 3/4 of the way through.  Maybe when it's recycled on Disney Channel and there's nothing else on.

5. 24: Dad FINALLY got TiVo and we have the whole season recorded (YAAAAAAAAAYYYYYY!!!!!)  My theory - the writers looked at the craptastic debacle that was season 6 and - put two and two together and decided "We canNOT have even a halfway decent season of 24 without Carlos Bernard."  Actually, I don't give the writers that much credit - I blame rabid fans (sorry, Keef, love you too, but there's only so much even you can carry.  And Ricky Schroeder is too much of a goober).  Tony - even as a (ahem...) "villain" ... yes PLEASE!!!!! (hee hee)  It almost makes having to watch Janeane Garafalo's ugly feminist mug bearable (almost - Mary Lynn Rajskub, please come to the front office - your Chloe-starved fanbase is waiting)

I'm only halfway through the third episode.  See disclaimer for Twilight for caution on spoilers *polishes supply of plastic dinnerware*

Let's see... my room is a disaster - trying to unpack and I don't have room for even half the stuff I brought (or mailed) home from Florida.  Stupid pack rat tendencies.  I blame my paternal grandma.

And I am on Facebook.  And I still don't get that stupid mess of... stuff.  Too many complicated navigation thingies.  I've never been very social anyway.  Meh...

Oh - and my Lappy died while I was gone *tear* - so I will be getting a new one.  Dad borrowed it for his business stuff, and that's why it is now in a vegetable state (technology and my dad do not mix - it's like vinegar and baking soda).  He said he'd buy me a new one since it's his fault I am Lappy-less, so that is good news.  Once that happens - I will be re-vamping my layout.  It's in need of some redoing.  So, look for that.

Peace out.
