Car

It turns out my Jeep needs some sort of repair to the transmission because it sounds like a stuck pig when I press the clutch.  As soon as it started making that noise, I took it home and parked it.  It’s now sitting in my parking space looking quite sad without someone behind the wheel.  Hopefully the repair only takes a few days.

We recently found a burrito place called Free Birds where they sell something called a Monster Burrito.  It is made with three tortilla shells and it costs $12 and up.  We’ve decided we will be getting those and seeing how far we can make it through them next weekend.  That and we’re going to try to drink a bottle of syrup each as they do in the movie Super Troopers.  There really is nothing to be gained from these food challenges except the experience and the bragging rights for being able to finish those things first.

We saw Up! today in 3D.  It was a really good movie (though I’ve not been known to dislike a Pixar film) and the short film that comes at the start of the movie was great.  Before each Pixar film, there is a little short film that doesn’t usually have a lot of words, it’s all about a funny character or two doing something outrageous.  This one is no different and it offers a lot of laughs!  I’d recommend the movie to anyone because it’s a good time and the 3D is really well done.  Mom, go see the normal version.
