Nature & Science Museum, Dallas, TX

So we (bff, her kids and her friend) went to the Nature & Science Museum in downtown Dallas. It was cool, was nice to spend some time with her and the kids. I've been getting Fridays and Saturdays off lately and it's nice. We went through this Spy interactive exhibit which was cool, then we went through the rest of the exhibits.

I also finished the first book in the Percy Jackson series, now to get the next book and see the movie. I say that it was a decent book, helping me a lot in figuring out how to write for YA, plus it's a decent series. Especially when you come from the Harry Potter age. It's easier to read, so it's definitely geared for the younger crowd, where as Harry Potter was more for the 14ish and up. Percy Jackson can be easily read by 9 year olds and up. I'm excited to see what happens next.

Lost the Final Season

 Yes it's sad, Lost will be ending this year, but I am so excited. Watched the season premier last night after getting home. I must say that I don't think any of my questions were truly answered, and now I have more. I won't say anything about the episodes for fear of ruining it for some one, but I just can't wait to see how this last season plays out.

Marie's Soap Box - Bad Drivers!

So I was driving home tonight and came across some bad driving... I just don't understand why you have to go so fast when you are already allowed to go 70 mph on the highway. I come from California, where the chances of seeing 70 mph on the highway is not often. So why is it important for you to speed up behind someone, just to pass them, then get right back in front of them to speed off.... This is not the autobahn where you can go as fast as you please. Another thing, use your damn blinker!!! It's not that hard, it's sticking out of your steering wheel for a reason! C'mon people, use your brain and drive safely!

Banks suck...

So my account was just fine, until wednesday morning and something else messed it up, so basically I'm getting a new account with a new bank that actually provides you with alerts to let you know when you're spending too much money...lol... so yea my wednesday was stressful. Hopefully today (thursday) will be better and I can get stuff done.
