Wolverine - Ignore the Critics, Believe the Hype

Seeing a movie like this makes me excited to be alive - in awe that human beings like you and I can create something so incredible it lifts you from your world and brings you fully into its' own, even if only for a brief time. I wasn't a big fan of the X-Men movies. (And yes, I watched purely for the pleasure of Hugh Jackman). This blows them all away.

Really? Wow. Okay, now I'll tell my husband I'll go with him to see it. I was kind of on the fence about it.

Yes, really! It was much better than I expected, much better. I'd see it again. (Even if Hugh Jackman wasn't completely naked, I'd still be this enthusiastic about it!)

Hmm, I've kind of been on the fence like Teri. I stopped seeing movies like this when I got divorced....I still haven't watched the last Batman and I bought it!

I'd go see it again. I thought it was a great time! Definitely the best of the X-Men and one of the better movies of this genre. I haven't been to one like it since last year's Hell Boy II and I was really disappointed with that one.

A Walk Through The (Dis)Enchanted Forrest (Halloween Party Post)

Welcome & thank you for visiting my post! For more Halloween fun today & throughout the weekend, visit A Fanciful Twist . For more Halloween & Autumn Fun, check out my "Autumn Tuesday" & "Halloween Thursday" posts by clicking on their labels in the left hand column. ~Happy Halloween & Pumpkin Blessings! *Update for those friends wondering, I put this together prior to surgery yesterday to make sure I would be able to post it for today! (Though it didn't post at 12:01am like it was supposed to). Anyhoo, I'm home and resting (uncomfortably). Surgery went well, my kidney tube and stone are gone! I have an internal stent on the left hand side but I'm okay with that because it comes out in the doctor's office in 2-3 weeks (no back to the hospital) and especially because it meant they could take that nephrostomy tube out! (The last nearly 2 weeks of that 15 weeks was rough with that thing, my body was simultaneously trying to heal aroun...

Gardens are mysterious, magical and enchanting, don't you think? Now follow me out into the garden, I have everything all ready for you, including music! (Turn your volume on). *Update: Music has reverted to my regular Fall soundtrack, 9/28/2010* For all of you non Practical Magic Blog Party folks, head on over to NJ Through My Eyes where I've posted 2 new slide-shows today; one is a preview of a new project I'm working on!

Not Exactly Music To My Ears and Acceptance

Went to my 'every 6 weeks' follow-up doctor's appointment with my Rheumologist yesterday morning. Apparently my heart palpitations/racing (not often, though enough to be noticeable), vision issues (blurriness and discomfort) and muscle cramps (too often & not dehydration) are "disease progression." Not exactly music to my ears I can tell you that much. We discussed my pain & swelling levels (back on the rise through the last 2 iv treatments) and agreed that my iv med should be increased from 400mg every 8 weeks to 500mg every 8 weeks. (This brings me closer to the area of 800mg, which Dr. A feels would be the max dose for me, and the fact that I'm getting closer to that mark scares me). One good thing to note, my blood pressure was "normal" for (at least) the 3rd follow-up in row and without meds, so at least that's one less thing for me to worry about (though it's like a needle in a hay stack really). I'm always on the verge ...
