A fairly pointless post

So I'm mostly creating a new post tonight so that Tom's sickly elbows aren't the first thing people see upon opening my blog. Which—thank you for the concern—the spots have begun fading, albeit the source remains a mystery. We've narrowed it down to smallpox, allergies, shingles, measles, mumps, acne, spider bite, leprosy, swine flu, bird flu, or—elbow's disease (a rather all-encompassing disease of the elbows). And since none of these are very serious at all, Tom has decided to forego a doctor's visit. Well anyway, Tom can pull off the spotted-elbow look like none other, and they sure were fun while they lasted. And speaking of looks—I've changed mine. I chopped my hair off on Saturday. My friend Nicole did it for me—the same talented lady that gave me my polygamist look several months ago. Indeed, her skills truly span all cultures.

In other unrelated news, who else is filled with anticipation over the upcoming Where the Wild Things Are flick? I certainly hope it ends up being as extraordinary as my expectations have led me to believe. Oh—and another great movie Tom and I just rented: The Boy in The Striped Pajamas. I recently read the book on account of Tom's mother's recommendation (if you ever need a good book to read, go to her. She's brimming with great reads.), and so I wanted to watch the movie too. I found both the book and movie excellent.

That's all.
