If you have no opinion please just mark the "I read today's post" box so I know I had visitors today (since you don't leave comments and I know I have some Anonymous followers out there)

Today was a pretty lazy day. I took my brother to guitar lessons and then we went and saw Avatar in 3D (Sunday movies are kind of becoming our thing). This was my first 3D experience and it was pretty cool I'll admit, I don't know if it was worth the extra money you have to shell out  but it was cool. I've seen Avatar a few times on DVD but I never saw it in the theatre. It was re-released in theatres Friday with extended scenes that were pretty cool.

After our movie we grabbed some pizza (I think it's NiBo's new favorite?) They have delicious pizza and empanadas (today I had the raspberry cheesecake, delish! I had a roasted chicken one at the sweetcorn festival, delish also!) We didn't want to eat our ginourmous New York style sourdough sausage pizza in the car so we stopped off at the lake forest preserve on our way home for a picnic style pizza fest. [side note rant: I am so incredibly sick of mosquito's for the year I hope for a frost soon and they all die, then I guess it can warm up for a bit longer. I have no idea where these suckers are coming from I have Off'd myself anytime I venture out in fear of the blood sucking buttheads. But my feet are covered still and they itch soooo bad! I basically bathe my feet in Calamine lotion... ok I'm done back to the story] Before I exited the vehicle I made sure to douse myself in Off. So we sat at a picnic table scarfed our pizza in the great outdoors (clearly how pizza is supposed to be consumed). Then after we stuffed our faces to the fullest we decided screw the outdoors back in the A/C'd car, but still wanted to enjoy nature so we drove around in comfort and bug free around the lake to check out the view.

I have been to this area several times and on two occasions after experiencing this particular wildlife I asked aloud the same question.... "Look, are those real deer?!" Why do I ask this. I don't think they put up deer statues in the middle of the woods where deer live. I feel immediately stupid after asking but technically it's a legit question. It's not that often you just see deer hanging out on the golf course. It could be decoration to create the atmosphere right?! Well NiBo (my brother) was feeling daring and wanted to see how close he could get, I was curious too. My only preface was for him to be careful I don't want to explain this to mom, which has become our joke when he's about to do something stupid. But he got pretty close about 5ft I'd say. Clearly these are tame-ish deer, and they were all girls so he didn't have big scary buck running around. As we drove off the guys golfing rode right up to it in the golf cart and had a hard time shooing them off so I don't think there was any danger. But it was still fun.

Don't forget Monday night on the Bachelor Pad the new Dancing with the Starts contestants will be announced.

and one more little diddy.. TrueBlood you have disappointed me this season with your drawn out story line and no big drama or storylines and now I have to wait two weeks to see how this lame seasons ends... shame on you.
