Where is Spring?

Here we are at the end of the month.  The end of April.  It was 92 degrees today.  After being 96 yesterday.  Where did Spring go?  My poor tulips have bloomed and got burned to a crisp the past few days.  Major bummer.  No wilting, just the evil, evil sun burning the edges of my beautiful parrot tulips.

On the positive side of the fast-moving seasons, May is just around the corner.  May is a big month: May 5th is the release of the newest Sookie Stackhouse novel, Dead and Gone, and then on May 19th comes True Blood in blu-ray.  I only ordered the blu-ray version because we missed out on the series in HD and I really want to see it in HD. (Uhm, cute nekkid vampire butt in HD?  Definitely!)  And let’s not forget the release of Underworld: Rise of the Lycans.  Can’t wait to see it – one I am very sad to have missed in the theatre.

June is a big month too with True Blood starting up again.  I was reading something somewhere that said that Allen Ball knows Eric is a big part of the books and will hold true to the story (while adding in other characters) – I really hope it’s true.  Eric is a HUGE part of the books.  Really, he’s why I keep reading.

July is TwiCon.  Can’t wait.  I purchased the plane tickets for my sister and I and have us getting to Dallas with plenty of time before it officially starts.  I think we’re mainly looking forward to meeting the stars of the movie.  Sad that Rob Pattinson and Kristen Stewart won’t be there — but hey, Jackson Rathbone, Peter Facinelli and Kellan Lutz MORE than make up for it. :)  And… to add more fuel to my love of Twilight, Michael Sheen, who played Lucian in Underworld: Evolution and Underworld: Rise of the Lycans, is playing Aro in New Moon.  WOO HOO.  Although, funny he was a werewolf fighting against vampires and will now be a super powerful vampire.

And then that’s it.  That’s my big summer plans.  The theme seems to be centered around vampires, although, it’s not something I can help or intended. ;)

I’m not ready for Monday.

This weekend feels like it came and went in a blink of the eye.  I’ve been meaning to start my mornings earlier during the weekend and it’s just not happening.  So by the time I get moving, I’m not in the mood to do the things I had planned to do.

Spring is here and my garden knows it.  The tulips are coming up, the grass is getting greener and the birds are chirping like no tomorrow.  Now to muster up the energy to weed the garden, plant more grass and feed the birds.  The most I got done this weekend was buying and watching Twilight on blu-ray. LOL

Speaking of blu-ray, I am LOVING the new “sets” that Disney has – combo packs.  You get the blu-ray AND the DVD.  I actually purchased Pinocchio this way and it’s phenomenal.

While still on the geek topic, The Husband is driving me batty over his cell phone.  Picks one, doesn’t like it, picks another, not sure, picks another… and so on.  There are two cell phones I want: the lotus or the iphone.  I can’t change until October.  It’s killing me.  So not want to hear him making choices.  I want it to be my turn.

Tomorrow is a busy day — heading an hour away to the doctors with the kiddo for a pre-cert exam for the dentist that is an hour away on Wednesday.  Fun.  All because of a cavity and his inability to allow people into his mouth.  Sigh.  I am not looking forward to fighting with an almost 8 year old over letting someone fix his teeth.  :|  One can hope that this week will be a good one, but I doubt it.
