Our Weekend Entertainment Splurge

Since we had a blockbuster coupon for a 99 cent rental and an unlimited rentals coupon for $1.99 my husband and I decided to take advantage of the savings and rent a few movies over the weekend.

The weekend before last we rented Babylon A.D. starring actor Vin Disel. Unfortunately I have never seen the Babylon television series, so I really don't know how well it goes along with that. I can say it was a fairly enjoyable movie that reminded me a lot of his character Riddick from the Pitch Black and Chronicles movies. If you want to know more about the movie, my recommendation is to head to the Babylon A.D. link. I'm not good with giving out details and not spoiling a plot.lol I can tell you this, if you like the Riddick movies, you'll enjoy Babylon A.D.

Another movie we saw over the weekends this month was My Best Friend's Girl. It's a HA HA comedy starring actress Kate Hudson. When we rented it, we were told by the employees at blockbuster that it wasn't a great movie. However, we really enjoyed it. But, if you're offended by sexual humor then I don't recommend this movie because that's what the entire movie is about! The guy goes on dates with other guys' girls to try to make them lousy and get the girls to go running back to their old boyfriends.

And finally, Mirrors. This was probably my second fave out of the three of these movies. It's a horror movie starring actor Kiefer Sutherland. I like Kiefer Sutherland despite his baby boy image and it's been a while since I've seen him in anything really good. And I was not disappointed! While it's not the type that will jump right out and scare you, it's still twisted and the ending is a tear jerker.

The Weekend Has Gone.

It's definitely been an interesting weekend. There really hasn't been anything too exciting happen. Same old people same old thing. Some people I have learned, never change.

I'll give you an interesting example of the past week. Twice now a certain someone has hinted big time that they're completely broke. It was a big enough hint that it was obvious they were hoping we'd pay their bills once again. If we had the money and it was anyone else, it wouldn't be a problem. But this person isn't really broke and we know this from past experience and from the fact that they blew all of their money on a shopping spree over the weekend. So, that would be why they are broke. Sigh. I love shopping too, but food and a home are more important. And children are a number one priority verses shopping sprees! So I am a bit miffed that their kids are less of a concern at the moment.

The rest of the weekend went whizzing by. I can't believe that tomorrow is a Monday! Wow. I think I really do need a vacation because I can't remember doing anything over the weekend, let alone enjoying it.lol

Finally!

The weekend...well for me anyway, is finally here. The only thing I hate about this job is the fact that I do work Saturdays. But, in reality... I never do anything on Saturdays anyway, so it's not like it's a really big deal.lol

The only other thing I hate about my job is the fact that it's bring me down. Physically. Anymore it's difficult for me to walk. Not a good thing at all. My husband did buy me a foot spa for Xmas, but every time I try to use it is an inconvenient time for him, so I give up.lol

On a last rambling note: Had to give up my dog. She wouldn't stop fighting my husband's dog, so she had to go. Gave her to my best friend, but she lost her in a matter of minutes. Sooo now Daisy in on the run somewhere and no one seems to be able to catch her. Hope she's alright. Sigh.

Holiday Flying

With everything beginning to look up here, I may very well consider taking a vacation sooner than I had figured. Dialaflight.com is a UK travel company offering worldwide services to travelers looking for weekend breaks. This is an awesome idea, especially for me right now since my schedule is very hectic and I really can't take time off from work to get away on a vacation.

Dialaflight isn't just about great weekend breaks, however. They also offer hotel accommodations and care hire (very similar to limousine service). So, whether you're looking for short breaks to places like, Paris, Rome, Barcelona, Prague, Vienna or Venice... Dialflight can make it happen for you. How cool is that?

Even if you live in the US you can still use Dialflight's services since they offer city breaks as well. Looking for a way to get away over Thanksgiving or Christmas break? Dialflights has some fantastic holiday offers as well. I could see myself on Langkawi Beach for the holidays.

If you're looking for a weekend away from the kids, work, whatever... You'll definitely want to check out Dialaflight.com. Hmm I wonder....
