Fear Fest '08

Whew! What a weekend. More about that in just a minute, but before I dive into that, I'd like to take this opportunity to say how much I love AMC. Yes, that's AMC as in the TV channel. Today I woke up and wasn't feeling so hot, so I called in sick and curled up on my couch with a million pillows and AMC's Fear Fest '08. It's all horror movies, all day until Halloween is over. Yesterday I watched no less than 5 horror movies, including one so amusingly titled The Midnight Meat Train (note: it does involve actual meat). This morning, I have taken in The Omen II, The Omen III and I'm currently in the middle of An American Werewolf in London. I literally haven't left my couch all morning. Not even to shower or eat or anything. I don't know if I should be proud of that or not (probably not).

Anyway, I'm beginning to not feel so much like a pod person, so I think my movie marathon will last only for today. Tomorrow I'll go back to joining the ranks of the real world.

Which reminds me, I had an excellent weekend! On Friday an old pal from Phoenix came to hang out and on Saturday we went up to Phoenix for my uncle's wedding. It's hard to watch movies and blog at the same time, so here are some choice pictures from the weekend to keep you entertained whilst I get my scary movie on.

Nothing beats impromptu car photo shoots. Especially at 2 in the morning in line at Viva Burrito.

We did not know those people in the car. Serious.

Mom and Uncle Mario, the groom.

Myself and the Escalante ladies.

I'm not going to lie to you; I didn't know what half of that business on my plate was. But I ate it. I ate it and I'm not even sorry. Which just goes to show you that you don't have to know what you're putting in your mouth to have it be delicious.

Austin, Imy and Tomas. My younger, but not so little anymore, cousins and brother.

Ugh, I hate the bouquet toss. Maybe it's cause I'm a single girl and I'm forced to recognize that in front of a bunch of strangers I don't know. My strategy for every bouquet toss is to hang out in the back with a drink, as clearly evidenced in this photo.

Cuttin' a rug with the bride.

The bride and groom.

Well I hope you're all happy. Now I have no idea what's happening in my scary movie. Although it's probably not all that difficult to figure out. Oh look, he's turning into a werewolf. Good, now I'm caught up.
