I got my car fixed and it was ridiculous. I got sick the day after I got home from Birmingham and it has taken me until now to feel good again. Which is also ridiculous. I went to Louisville last weekend and saw my grandparents and Mark. That was pretty fun, except we're all worried about them. Tonight after work I'm going to Owensboro because we're having a shower on Saturday for my cousin who is getting married soon. My cousin from FL who rarely comes will be there and the cousins from KY who rarely come are making an appearance. So that should be nice. They're fun. Fortunately I think we're coming back on Sunday, so at least I have one day of the weekend to do something useful. I feel like I've been really busy lately, but I don't think I have. I was just really tired for about a week because I was sick. I think tomorrow is going to be kind of crazy, since my grandma's house will be full of people and we're in charge of food. At least we'll be having good food.
Also, last night I was at a friend's apartment and I glanced at her calendar and exclaimed in dismay, "Did you mark the date of High School Musical on your calendar?!" The answer was yes, but it's worse than you think. Apparently, the people at the Capitol here did it. How awful is that? I was horrified. Because as I told Dave and Rachel while Zoe was making us watch part of High School Musical 2, the worst part about it is that it's available to do as a musical for your school or whatever. Think about that-watching High School Musical, but worse. Remind me not to encourage any children I may have in the arts. Also, I ranted at Mark last week because Zac Efron was on the cover of Rolling Stone. I really can't figure out why. I mean, he's been in like five movies, three of which were made for television. I realize that two of those movies are part of like an insane children's pop culture thing, but dude. He's like the only person in that cast who does not have a record deal. Anyway, apparently crappy movies offend me now. But I love crappy movies! I guess even I have standards. Yay me.

Dude, Zac Efron is the only one without a record deal because he doesn't sing all the stuff. The part is for a tenor and he is apparently a baritone, so even if his voice was good, he wouldn't be able to sing it. Anyway, you have to admire Disney for their business savvy with the whole thing. Name another children's movie whose soundtrack was the #1 album in the country. Twice.
No, dude, I know that. I'm fairly certain that I'm the one who told you that. He did do his own singing in the second one and in his Rolling Stone interview he claims he didn't take the record deals offered to him because he didn't want to get it like that or something. Please, Disney had no clue it was going to explode like that! I think they're having to pay out the ass to get the kids for the third movie.
What about Hannah Montana (not a movie, but probably will be at some point) and Lizzie McGuire? I know they weren't as big as High School Musical, but seriously, Disney knows what it's doing.
I loved Lizzie Macguire, and so did Zoe. Hilary Duff used to be so cute. Anyway, I hope the shower was fun. Sorry we couldn't be there, but that would have been WAY too many people!
