Bunny, ball ball



Had a pretty cool day today. Started off early. We woke up at 8 am and got Diana ready for her first full day ofs school. She only went for 45 minutes the first day. A normal day of junior kindergarten will be just under 3 hours. We packed up a snack and got her there on time. She had a great time and told us she sang some songs and heard a story and played in the play ground. I am so proud of her. Her teacher said she was great today.

After Kath went to work Rob showed up. He brought along a couple of classic movies-Howard The Duck and Hudson Hawk. I hadnt seen Howard the Duck since it was out on the big screen in 1986. I remeber it doing badly but i remember not having a problem with it. It was the fist movie about a marvel comics character and was produced by George Lucas. Also of note its one of the first movies Tim Robbins appearred in. He went on to be in shawshank redemption and direct Deadman Walking. He even won an oscar. Upon viewing it again i realize its still a cheesy movie but i didnt hate it or anything like that. As a matter of fact now that Marvel comics has been purchased by Disney i think they should do a sequel or a re imagining. Lea Thompson is still hot so she could totally be in a new Howard movie.

I always liked Hudson Hawk and feel it is one of Bruce Willis most under rated films. To this day i donèt understand why this film didnt perform better at the box office. It has a lot of funny scenes and many memorable quotes. It made me want to watch more Bruce Willis movies like The Last Boy Scout and Striking Distance. Maybe Rob will be up for another movie day. So thank you Rob for coming by today to watch movies and drink pop.
