Scary Movies (or should I say over rated?) and Air Conditioners

Well, we saw Batman this weekend. It was too long and I thought the plot was a little thin. Batman Begins had a satisfyingly thick plot but this was was just ridiculous. I was told how wonderful this movie is but honestly, it was just extremly violent and TOO LONG!!!! I thought that the movie was done and then it's like a WHOLE NEW MOVIE STARTED!!!!! When I thought it was finishing the first time it was already too long then when it kind of started again it was just torture to have to sit through more of it. I'm really glad it was free, I wouldn't have wanted to pay to see it.

I'm sorry I'm complaining a lot today but I have another problem. Our air conditioner sucks! We have a house that is only 3 years old and our STUPID STUPID STUPID air conditioner keeps freezing up. We clean out the filter constantly but it keeps freezing. When the air conditioner freezes it will get all plugged up and no cold air can come out of it so we have to turn it off for 48-72 hours. Yesterday was SO MUCH FUN, all day in the heat!!!! It was doing so well for like three weeks we hadn't had any problems with it but then it froze up yesterday. GRRRR!!! I am going to have to pay to have somebody come out and look at it. Just to look at it! How irritating! Does anybody know a good fixit man that can come look at it for me?

Okay, something happy. Noah is just about the funniest kid in the world! (I really ought to do the picture thing - I will someday I promise) but yesterday in church he was sitting on my lap before and he was like "Mommy, am I a sister?" This was in the middle of Sacrament meeting so I was trying to get him to sush (Noah doesn't have a quiet voice) and I said " No, you are a boy so you are a brother." He burst into tears and cried "No, I want to be the sister." I HAD TO TAKE HIM OUT!!!! Then we had an episode with a red crayon. Noah's favorite color is red so he asked for the crayon so he could color his picture of Nephi (we only do church related stuff in sacrament meeting and no treats at all, it just causes conflict - the instigator, of course, is Noah!) so I gave it to him and he screamed "This is the pink crayon, I want the red crayon! My favorite color is red!" I HAD TO TAKE HIM OUT AGAIN!!! This story is the kicker. We all walk out to car and, as usual, Noah bolts. We get the other kids in the car and Mike starts his weekly trek around the building to find him. He comes around without Noah so figures he's gone inside. Mike goes in a looks for him but has no luck. At that point I'm freaking out because there are so many places he could go! I'm trying not to let my imagination run wild but there are lots of people leaving so he could have run out into the parking lot and gotten hit by a car or somebody could have nabbed him or, knowing Noah, he could have wandered far and wide looking for a piece of candy. After about my third lap in the car I see Mike standing on the sidewalk with this little imp. It turns out that he (noah) somehow got inside and went into the primary room (WITH A DIFFERENT WARD!!!!) and was singing songs with the senior primary! He was just sitting in the back swinging his legs and singing songs. That kid! He totally didn't see any problem with what he was doing! GRRRR!!!!!
