2012...a glorified Hollywood version of Noah's Ark

No kidding, kiddies.

Okay, there were gaping cracks and earthquakes, but it all boiled down to the giant thousand-something feet tsunamis and the GI Joe-ish battleships that saved the day. Heck, they even had animals on board. Our typical hero (I can't even remember the dude's name) survived where he should've died at least 10 times over. And of course, Gordon, stepdaddy to the Hero's kiddies had to die so that Our Main Hero could reunite with his family. I found it kinda sad that Sascha died.

Me: It was depressing how Sascha died. It had to happen. (Inner thought: The poor bugger.)
G: Yeah. I know. He was so hot. And that sexy voice.

We got our lil bit of adventure's worth after the movies when we got pulled over by cops lying in ambush (like, seriously, in the middle of nowhere) - poor G had to do a breathalyser - oh, well, by then the cocktails would've been well been flushed outta our systems anyway.

While shopping in Woolies today I noticed how they had cartons of egg whites in the fridge section, which reminded me of a certain conversation I had with S and J while we were in Sydney. I can't remember exactly why, but we were talking about nutrition - bound to happen if you've got friends who are dieticians. Sorta.

Me: I usually remove the egg yoke from the whites before eating 'em.
S: Most of my friends do, too.
Me: Really?
S: Yeah. But they're guys, though. Guys who want to build their muscles, etc.
Me: !!!

One can only imagine what went through my mind when I stared at the cartons of eggwhites in Woolies - cartons which had little cartoon images of muscle-bound jocks with dumbells and headings that went something like "Build Your Muscles" etc

Heck.

And I am so hooked on Switchfoot's Your Love Is A song :3
