Thank you, come again!

I am so sleepy right now that I'm actually considering going to the car and napping in the backseat. I think I'll be getting my monthly visitor soon, as I've noticed that feeling extremely tired/sleepy prior to getting it has become a regular occurrence of late. It used to be break outs, but that's kind of ceased. Now it's the extreme tiredness. *YAWN*
Of course, it could also be due to the fact that I haven't gotten much sleep in the past couple of days. Last night, J&R&I went to see The Princess Diaries 2, and it was TERRIBLE. Now, I didn't have v. high expectations of it (given they've completely departed from Meg Cabot's books and because I thought the first one was pretty bad, too), but I thought I might be able to glean some guilty pleasure from it. No. Awful, awful, awful.
I think we only stayed because we were going to watch Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle afterward (yes, the second viewing for me and Rob), and that managed to salvage the movie-going experience. It's just so fucking silly and funny, and yet effectively layered with social/racial commentary. There's a good article about it here. Plus, I had no idea that it was such a critics' darling. Ebert and Roeper gave it two thumbs up. Who knew? I am so impressed with these movie critics! (<--- Never a sentence I thought I'd say.)
Yeah, so go see it if you are so inclined. *ships Kumar/Giant Bag of Weed*
Did I mention that the first thing Jade did when she arrived was to mop my floor and do my dishes? It's so great having her around! Oh, and when Robbie and I were on that touristy island, we went into an antique shop, where she purchased an iron hand. (I do not know why anyone would need or want an iron hand, except now when she says I'm making her want to strike me with her iron hand, it's not an idle threat.)
