With a side helping of The Secret Power Is Heart.

I finally got a chance to go see 9, which was a much better movie than the reviews had led me to believe. I mean, yeah, there were some parts of the story that made no sense whatsoever, but to be honest that's par for the course with Hollywood movies these days. It was a visually spectacular movie, with some really disturbing and terrifying monster designs, an amazing sound board, characters I liked a lot, and some edge-of-the-seat action scenes. I would totally recommend it.

The insurance company finally paid up, so I have to find an auto place to fix my fender. I know there are a few around here, I just have to have some way to determine what places are good. I never know how to find places like this, do I just pick one out of a book? I have the same problem with doctors.

I've been staying at home this weekend; my roommates are in Canada and I am feeding their cats, as well as harassing them so that they don't get too lonely. And I am thinking about getting a cat of my own soon, yay!

Summer is definitely over up here; we had hot weather up until about a week ago when there was a cloudy cold day. Since then the sun has come back but it's much cooler. Today was a gorgeous fall day, temps in the low 60s and clear shiny skies. I actually got a lot more done today than I expected. I bought some herbs which I will put in the ground tomorrow, and I have been waffling recently over decorations. Do I want Halloween and/or Fall themed decorations, or no? How extensively can I decorate? Probably I'll end up just not doing much of anything at all, ah well.

Speaking of upcoming October, my sisters need to tell me what they want for their birthdays!

Lots of yay to various pleasant and/or happy things here referenced! Particularly the insurance thing even though I heard about that already.

Randomly, because [livejournal.com profile] ayelle and I were talking about it yesterday, have I mentioned that I really liked Ari's choice of bridesmaids dresses? That purple thingie was a really good cut and color for you.

Clothes, probably. I know I always say that, but since I never have the money to really upgrade my wardrobe the way it needs upgrading, I'm always doing it in drips and drabs.

I liked the dresses too, I'm keeping mine around in case I ever need to go to a semi-formal occasion. :)

I actually figured clothes, but what kind of clothes? Underwear, bras, formals, informals? What stores?

I haven't used it myself but I heard good things about angie's list, which has recommendations for various stores and services including doctors and auto repair (I think).

Hmm, sounds interesting! Got a link? (Is it like craigslist, or is it a hardcopy journal?)
