I think life would be funny if it were a musical. This weekend Farah and I saw Aida at the Clark Center (thanks to the recommendation from Morgen). We liked it but only one of the performers had star quality (Mary Roach). So we went online and looked up Aida to see the REAL deal, and apparently it is impossible to find online other than on iTunes. But in the process we found some great stuff on YouTube.
So to add to the list of friends I proudly present, The Musical Edition:
Lady Ursula. I know she was on our list before, but here is the YouTube Ursula. She is really good, but TOTALLY extreme and has an intense way of doing things.
The Yawning Man from the theater. Can you believe anytime there was a slow song this man yawned EXTREMELY loud. Also he crawled into the theater up the stairs. And to answer your thoughts, I am not exaggerating at all.
I'll think of more, but this was the blog I forgot to post last week....

Superheroes
Yes, I am officially back in the blogging world and I am officially back in the realm of Movie Goers. I went to see both Narnia and Iron Man this weekend and was pleasantly surprised by both.
At any rate I thought I would re-visit the realm of Superheroes. A long time ago I assigned people superhero personas. Well, some time has passed and I thought I would reassign some people and make some additions to my superhero team.
Obviously I am the geeky, noble, and annoying Cyclops.
I follow rules (sometimes annoyingly too much) and I tend to take charge. So I give myself the Cyc role. Also I have the girl, so there.
Farah then, by placement of myself, would have to be Jean Grey.
I think this suits her well. She knows a lot about people, reads minds in someways, and is hot. So yup, she is Jean.
Parker still is the Incredible Nightcrawler.
He kind of pops into your life says something funny, then the next thing you know he is gone. Also he is a blue-ish type of person and well, there you go.
Jon is probably the Beast.
I mean he has hair that is big a scraggly, and have you seen the jaw on this guy? He's got beast status. Also I know he has to be a pretty smart so and so because he is an arcitect. Well maybe not yet, but by the end of the week I'd say so.
Morgen or Morgan is Dust.
There I said it she wears a burka and that's all there is to it.
I guess I should include some newbies on the ol' blog here. I would have to say Micah and Katrin (though I have no clue as of yet how to spell her name so I will hence forth call her Mrs. Mason until I figure out the proper spelling) are on the friends list for sure. So now to assign them some characters:
Micah is pretty much Gambit.
He has a good sense of humor like Gambit, and he's tall. People like him and well, his eyes turn red at night after three hours of Worship team non-practice--ok well maybe not but I think it goes on long enough thank you very much.
I have to say Mrs. Mason is probably best associated with Dazzler. I was tempted to put her down as the Scarlet Witch, but SW annoys me a little bit so Dazzler it is.
This picture isn't how I remember her at all, but I guess it works. Dazzler is fun, good humored, has her obsessions and in someways is startling. I'd say Mrs. Mason has all of these attributes. Also I'm pretty sure Dazzler is pregnate in a comic, and well--so is the Mrs.
I am tempted to add more characters and friends on to the list but I will stop there since I am unsure as to the ethical boundaries surrounding other people's names on the blog. So until I obtain your permission I shall leave you nameless and characterless on the blog... SO in the mean time enjoy these Most Outrageous Clips I saw this week which had me tearing up in laughter:

The Other Woman
This may come as a shock to some of you... But there are a lot of women in my life. I know some of you are planning on breaking the news to Fauf, but she already knows. Yes, Farah is still my love, but I must make time for some of these other women in my life.
In my daily conversation this she is with me, I'm sure...
At 5:00 she speaks to me...
As I drive home she reminds me KSBY 6 is the station she watches...
When I am having trouble spelling things, she comes to me...
And when I need schematics, well... there you go...
Alas, there are many women in my life.

Headlines
It is risen, indeed.
Well life has been ridiculously busy over the past 43 days, hence no blog and very little online checking-in. So here is a quick run down of the past weeks. Rather than go week by week I think the best idea is to give some headlines, which if I were savvy would turn into newslinks. Here we go:
Shaws Seek Sullivan Home: Sullivans Eagerly Await the Move
The Birthday Month Comes to the Nest
Nesters Go to Disneyland
Mimi Rolls Out the Red Carpet
SoCal Shaws Meet the Nesting Shaws at Mimi's
Nesters Call the Cops
The Birthday Month Leaves the Nest
Nesters Call the Cops... Again
Shaws Seek Silent Nest
Nest 2.0?
No Word on The New Nest
Teacher Appreciation Week Comes to PCS: Farah Honored, Michael's Life in Shame.
Sullivans Seek Rental
Sullivan Family Moves to Santa Maria
Cassidy: Child Genius?
I can go into more details on a couple of these, but I am unsure which ones to detail the most. So if you want me to comment on one of them, please comment.
Enjoy.
