well.. i ended up seeing Finding Nemo with my cousins and siblings... it was pretty good, you know, the usual Pixar/Disney thing. one thing that i REALLY like about the Pixar/Disney colaborations (other than the mind-boggeling visuals... even their 1989 pre-show short film was pretty impressive...) anyways.. as i was saying, what i really like are the subtle adult humor that they throw in to keep the more sophisticated audience entertained that sails undetected over the radar of the younger crowd. and this movie is no exception. granted i would have rather seen 2Fast 2Furious (not for the plot i assure you.. i just wanna see tthe cars) but at least there is one movie that can actually keep people of all ages entertained, and that is truly impressive.

that said.... i now ponder something: Pyro, how can you, after watching Finding Nemo, go and eat sushi??? the blunt irony should be enough to deter you.... but also the many references in the movie to not eat fish... (not that i dont like sushi... i love it) but you dont go and eat fish after watching a movie in wich you want the fish to live.... something just seems wrong about that. i duno. i got nuthin.

anyways, after the movie we grabbed some birgers at In n Out, went to my cousins house and installed a DVD player and came home.... with my cousin Ben.. hes weird. first thing he does is throw on Monty Python and the Holy Grail... funny movie, but i was hoping to something else, o well. then... he and my bro set my bro's clock radio to wake them up at 2:30 AM...?!?!??!? what the hell for?!?!?! they end up just walking to the family room and resuming slumber on the couch. they then wake up again at 6:00 and drink chocolate milk. i eventually wake up around 9ish and watch the Matrix and listen to the commentary and watch the white rabbit mini documentaries. my cousing proceeds to burst into my room, anounce that i am awake and ask if i would make Bagel Bites... ?!?!?!?!!?!? WTF!?!??! BAGEL BITES?!?!?! AT 9AM!??!?!

he then returns at 10 and asks to have lunch. im thinkling that maybe if he hadent woken up in the middle of the night.... and then again at 6 and had only chocolate milk for breakfast.. he would not be so hungry... idiot. so.... i make him these potatow things just minutes after i myself have some breakfast. when lunchtime finally does roll around, his mom shows up to drop off my sis (and my other cousin Chrissee) and guess what... Ben has a Peanut Butter and Jelly sandwich.. and my brother follows suit. do they bother to ask if anyone ELSE wants to eat? NO! so i ask the others if they would like a sandwhich.. after getting the orders i walk into the kitchen to find Ben scraping the "ash" off of a slightly burnt piece of toast...onto the counter... WTF!?!?! could he not walk 5 feet over to the garbage to do it there?!?!? not only that, but he is planning to make yet another peanut butter and jelly sandwhich!!!!!! OMG!!!! DOES IT EVER END!??!?! so i quikly nab the toast and make my cousin a sandwhich out of it and make myslef one astonished that so much food can be consumed by such a slim little person. eventually his mom showed up and freed me from his wrath. how does she do it?
