Water for Elephants trailer

"Water for Elephants" - one of my all-time favorite books. I really hope the movie doesn't disappoint me. Release date is set for April 15th. Can't wait!

Water for Elephants movie

I just saw that they're making a "Water for Elephants" movie. It's supposed to come out some time in 2011 and will star Reese Witherspoon and Robert Pattinson. I can't wait. I LOVED this book and hope the movie lives up to it.

My "yay" list

• The stretchy glue stuff on the back of new credit cards...I kinda want to apply for another credit card just so I can experience that wonderfulness of that stuff.
  
• Watching my dog try to roll over...HILARIOUS!
• Massages. I'm sure most people love massages. But I love them more. I really like to be touched.
  
• Bubble wrap...I have no self control when it comes to bubble wrap.
• Stuffed foods. Food just seems to be better when stuffed with something that's delicious and bad for you. Think about it....stuffed mushrooms, stuffed jalapenos, stuffed olives...
• Really, just food in general. I love it. A lot. I really should be a fat person...
  
• The movie "Forgetting Sarah Marshall"...if you don't think it's the funniest movie of all time, then we can't be friends.
• Jamocha shakes from Arby's.
• Black and white photography...I dig it.
• Getting places on time. This doesn't happen very often for me, so I'm always excited when it happens.
• Embarrassingly horrible reality TV shows (namely, Kendra, Keeping up with the Kardashians, & Denise Richards: It's Complicated)
• Eyeliner...I'm neither goth nor emo, but I always have to wear eyeliner. I think it's because I have a red freckle on my right eyelid that I feel I always need to cover up.
• Appreciative parents (not so much my own parents, but the parents of my students).
• Reese's Pieces...by far the best candy ever.
• Bottled water...the one thing I can say I'm high maintenance about. I just won't drink tap water. Eww.
• Happy hour with my coworkers. I work with fun people and I feel bad for people who don't.
• Hot air balloons. My husband still owes me a ride!
• Live sporting events. I really don't like to watch sports on TV...I just don't have the attention span for it. But I love going to baseball or football games. Probably because of the tailgating...
• Mario Kart on the Wii...I'm always Donkey Kong.
• Peeling James' back when he has a sunburn. He never lets me do it though. He says it's gross. What's gross is having all that dead skin just hanging out on your body.
  
• Board games...I'm convinced that James and I have more board games then pretty much anyone else we know. What can I say? We're fun people.
