I'm sorry, but I've been so tired lately that all I want to do is sleep! :)

Baby Peanut Update: 70 Days Left!
So I'm on week 30 (eep!!) and I have 10 weeks to go (if I make it to 40 weeks that is)!
It's now starting to sink in and terrify me that labor and delievery is coming up, later than sooner I hope!
- Braxton Hicks contractions: they don't hurt but they catch me off guard and sometimes feel odd and it gets annoying at times.
- Back pains begin: I'd have them sometimes, but now they are starting to become more and more frequent.
- Pee-runs: more and more I'm running to the bathroom... at one point I swear it was 7 minutes between two of my runs!
- Exhaustion setting in: I'm good for about 3-4 hours, then I'm ready for a 8 hour nap
- Kick counting: the fun part! and boy o'boy he kicks, punches, shuffles, wiggles, and now hiccups!
#6 DZP: To Kill a Mockingbird
Scout and her brother Jem, live in the fictional town of Maycomb, Alabama, during the 1930s. The story covers three years, during which Scout and Jem undergo changes in their lives. They begin as innocent children, who spend their days happily playing games with each other and spying on the town bogeyman, Boo Radley. Through their father's work as a lawyer, they begin to learn of the racism and evil prevalent in their town, and mature painfully as they are exposed to it. - Wikipedia
Finch: "It's a sin to kill a mockingbird."
Now I loved reading this book when I was in high school. I even named my kitten Scout because she was a tomboy! But I've never seen the movie till now, and Gregory Peck was very nice to see in this!
I love all the characters in this book/film. Atticus Finch is a great father for raising 2 motherless children, and can really shoot a gun! Jem is brave and rugged; he always wants to be the leader and treats Scout like a little brother. Hence why Scout acts like a tomboy, and is shy when she has to wear a dress for school. Scout is my favorite out of the children: she's smart for her age and wants to learn about everything, and she gets into fights!
#6 DZP: The Birds
A wealthy San Francisco socialite (Melanie Daniels) meets and pursues a potential boyfriend (Mitch Brenner) from a San Francisco animal shop to a small Northern California town called Bodega Bay that slowly takes a turn for the bizarre when birds of all kinds suddenly begin to attack people there in increasing numbers and with increasing viciousness.
Annette brought this movie over one night because it's one of her favorites, and I've never seen it... nor really any Alfred Hitchcock film. Straight from the get-go, I knew the Melanie Daniels character was going to be an odd and strange lady. She meets a good looking man and immediately calls up her contacts to find out his name and address. Then she finds out from his neighbor where he spends his weekends, Bodega Bay... crazy stalker!! Then it gets better: she drives to Bodega Bay, finds out the house, his younger sister's name, and then rows a boat across the bay to the house!! He is cute, but jebus, she went through a LOT for the pursuit!
Now thanks to Annette, everytime that I see a flock of birds, or bird sitting across the wire, or bunching up here and there... I'm going to think about this movie and resort to the people who's eyes were plucked out from and murdered by the birds. Oh and seagulls no longer say "Mine?" so innocently!

Happy 300th Post!
Saw this adorable skin for the iPhone 4 and had to get it! I've always loved the Mr. Men and Little Miss collection. The Little Miss Sunshine one was too cute and I had to have it (plus the movie is one of my favorites!) Availible at GelaSkins.com
But *cheers* to the 300th post!
And on to another 300 more!
