Made a couple breakfast burritos for dinner. One would have sufficed. But I can't bring myself to toss the other because they were so good. I've just been staring at it for five minutes now.

Lol, who only eats 2 breakfast burritos? That's a light snack.
 
I brought back a cooler full of leftover food from the bachelor party. They were just going to throw away perfectly good eggs, cheese, brats, potato salad, macaroni salad, chips, tamales, buns, and tortillas.

I backed my cooler up to the door and said, "Woah, woah woah... Fellas... Load 'er up."
 
Was in DSM for an event paid for parking then went to put my driver's side window up and for the 2nd time in the last few months it wouldn't go back up. Freaked out about the idea have my car wide open to thieves for a time span of 3 hours. Put everything in my trunk. Tried one last time and finally got the window up.

You haven't seen my breakfast burritos. Protip: Steel cut oats cooked like burrito rice with taco seasoning.

The new girl in our office finally decided to personalize her cubicle after a couple weeks. She hung a decorative mirror in it.

It's more oval than this, but similar:

Please tell me I'm not the only one that thinks that is really weird.
Is she a Disney princess?

This is the second time 00 got sick yesterday. Must be a little under the weather.
 
Boxster how was hobnobbing with the Leaths?

Rewired part of a building today. Went to a middle school track meet to cheer on the niece, dear lord I'm glad I only go to one of those a year. I can watch little kids BB(back when she was younger) and at least enjoy it, but track just bores me. Hopefully rain holds off tomorrow and I can get my yard caught back up.

Try doing volleyball.
Talking about boring. At 10U slowpitch softball last night, my daughter pitched the first inning and threw something like 3 strikes out of 38 pitches in the first inning, and she's the best pitcher on the team. The second inning was much better as it was about 50/50.

I than proceeded to my son's baseball game. I had broken out the winter jacket and was still chilled to the bone by the time his game got over at 10.
 
So what's the scariest movie to you? Not necessarily best, but what creeped you out the most? I say that because I feel when it comes to the horror genre, what's scary and what's really well made can be two different things.
I still think the scariest movie is Jaws. My daughter thinks it's cheesy (she noticed that the eyes of the shark look like stickers) but it still makes my skin all tingly for almost the whole movie.

That is a hard question. I think it's hard to compare them since they might be scary for different reasons and different genres within the horror genre:

3. Suspenseful

I could probably come up with my favorites for each category?
This is not a horror movie but the most suspenseful scene I can think of in a movie is in All the President's Men. There is a scene where the reporter is talking to Deep Throat in a parking garage and Deep Throat is mentioning some implied threats. All of a sudden, the reporter turns his head and when he turns it back Deep Throat is gone and then there is the sound of squealing tires. After that, there is only an eerie silence. Every time I see this I start looking around the room for men in black watching me.
 
What kind? Honeycrisp are the best.

"Honeycrisp is an apple cultivar developed at the Minnesota Agricultural Experiment Station's Horticultural Research Center at the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities."
They also introduced my fav pie apple, Haralson. :smile:

Since the Honeycrisp patent ran out, the U of M has been pushing the Zestar apple. It' just not as good.

Also, I like the Pink Lady apples and the old-school Granny Smith.
 
Honeycrisp is for sure the best. We talked about planting a couple apple trees and I wanted Honeycrisp as one.
