Eclipse came out last night!!!! I was definitely there at midnight to watch it. And back at work at 8am this morning. Which = very little sleep for me. Nap time after work today!!!
I was concerned about the movie, because Eclipse is my favorite book in the series and I didn't want them to ruin it. And I was pleasantly surprised that it wasn't ruined at all. Hands down best movie so far. And they kept my favorite line from the whole series - "What happened Bella, you try to walk and chew gum at the same time again? No. I punched a werewolf in the face." And Charlie (Billy B.) gets a big kudos for being totally awesome. And Mr. Whitlock, be careful with that sexy accent. It could get you in trouble.
Since I haven't blogged in a long time, I'll give you two facts!
#821. "It takes an interaction of 72 muscles to produce human speech."
I wonder if they are counting the brain in there, because after some of the people I've talked to, I can guarantee not all people use that muscle to produce human speech. I would actually venture to say most people don't use that muscle. And I can guarantee it takes me more muscles. Because I talk with my hands. I think (and I'm sure many that know me would agree) that if you tied my hands down, I would have trouble speaking. I catch myself making crazy hand motions while talking on the phone, like that person can see my frantic airplane hailing.
#746. "The only insect that can turn its head is a praying mantis."
weird. It's official. Praying mantis are strange. Not only do they eat each other (and when I say eat each other, I mean the females chow down on the males - that will teach them to ignore the wife when she tells them to pick their socks up) and they can turn their head. But maybe that is what God gave them for such a faithful prayer life. Get it, they are PRAYING mantis. Haha. Sorry. Little sleep=bad pun Amanda. Who is not my favorite Amanda around. I much prefer delightfully witty Amanda or even slightly funny Amanda.

Haha, love the random facts.
ReplyDeleteI don't think it's that people use their brains, it's that their brains are having such a hard time with the easy stuff (making their lips flap and tongues wag) that it can't really comprehend the hard stuff (thinking before speaking--oh my!).
I think praying mantis is a pretty beastly bug. It does deserve a reward for it's prayer (I laughed at the joke so it was worth it).
Like the blog! It'd be great if you could check mine out sometime! withmonsters.blogspot.com
