An American Carol

If there's ever a time when I think it would be imperative to go to a movie on it's opening night, it would be tonight. This movie (An American Carol) is the first big step by the conservative people in the People's Republic of Hollywood, who are hiding in the closet (because they could be blacklisted if they are discovered to not be communists like the rest of em), and if we don't support it, then other conservatives in Hollywood will be afraid to come out. It needs a big opening weekend, or else...

So I think y'all should go see it this weekend. I know we will, Lord willing.

Interjection by Becky: Plus it's directed by the same guy that did Airplane! and Naked Gun so it sounds like a good time.

On another note, there's gonna be a Sara Palin rally tomorrow (Oct. 4) at the Home Depot Center, starting at 2pm. I emailed got this reply about the rally. If you want to go, you need to email them by 5pm TODAY. [SEE UPDATE BELOW]

Halloween

So I was looking my Google analytics reports and saw some interesting stuff in the keywords. Last year I wrote a "review" of a book on Halloween I read. This year, it's bringing readers. Okay, maybe not readers, as all but one spent 0 seconds on the site. And the last? 4 minutes. I'm impressed, considering what they were looking for.

4. christian halloween john piper (this one was not a new visitor)
6. halloween laboratory
7. john piper halloween
8. john piper on halloween
10. outline for "all saint's day" worship service (this visitor also visited another article on my blog and i'm highly curious which one)

Well, that's all for now.

Except...QotD: would you still have a job if economic policy went your way? I'm not sure i would. Without income taxes and with less government involvement, payroll would be much easier to process. So less people would need to outsource for that and more people would be able to do it, making fees less and competition higher. My boss, a tax preparer and financial advisor, would always have business though, because people would always be investing. The stock market would be a little crazy at first though...good or bad? I don't know. Let me hear your opinions!

First Post as Mrs. Watkins

Althought legally my last name is still Grove. >.< I'm so anxious for the marriage certificate to get here.

Thanks to everyone who came to my wedding and we missed those of you who didn't. We are having a Costume Reformation Housewarming party next month though, so please email (wedding[at]becksterslaboratory[dot]com) me if you are interested. It will be a fun time off BBQ, costumes, chillaxing, and who knows what else. Also, if you took pics at the wedding, please email them to us or send us a link to where you uploaded them. Everything happened in a blur so i would appreciate being able to see it from a slow, third-party perspective!

The honeymoon was great and i'll be blogging on that when i can. I also need to update the website to it's permanent state and there are a LOT of thanks i need to add. Before that, i have to finish unpacking boxes, unpack the suitcases, put away the gifts, and decorate. Which makes it really aggravating to go to work. Maybe we'll be up to the task Saturday. Nathaniel's job asked him to work Saturday in order for them to give him ours tomorrow and Friday. He's telling them no because we need that day too much, which will still probably not even be enough. I don't want to be living like this for much longer. Our apartment is much too cute to be such a mess.

Squee

If the world doesn't get sucked into a Swiss blackhole and end today, then the above reveals how many days are left until my marriage to my dear little buttercup.

Two in One Day - Go Me!

So i was looking for Filipino catering places for the reception and ran across this:


This one still tops all:


Then 13 Going on 30 and THEN Michael Jackson's original. Yeah.

Election '08
