Stupid name, smart movie

I saw Quantum of Solace Friday night, and I have to say, It was sweet. Loads of cools places: Italy, Haiti, Bolivia- not to mention the sweet action,(minus the boat scene, it was a bit to jerky for my liking; it looked like they actually filmed it from the boat)nice cars,and babes made it a real treat for the eyes. In fact, other than the boat scene, and name, (Although I guess ridiculous names are in line with the Bond tradition)I liked this one better than the last. On top of that, the song for the opening credits was done by the beautiful and talented Alicia Keys,(and the weird looking guy from the White Stripes)and you've got yourself one heck of a movie.In fact, I thought this was the best action movie I've seen this year. Then again, I still haven't seen The Dark Knight. My friend and I were talking about it after, and we decided this James Bond is more rebellious and bad to the bone than ever. He's basically James Dean on steroids. And HGH. Also, I was lucky enough to fall in love during the movie too...

Just look at her. Her name is Olga Kurylenko, and she plays a half-Bolivian, half-Russian chick with revenge for her dead family on her mind. People said she did a bad job, but I don't think so. Although... it is possible I just didn't pay any attention to her acting. Now that I think about it I can't remember much in particular about her acting...Dang she's fine!


The past few weeks have been kinda crazy. With my boss out of town, I have had to go clean a few more places than I typically do; luckily, she let me use her car while she's gone visiting her son's fam (having a car here is so great, I can't even tell you). On top of that, I house-sat and took care of her dog Ellie at her place for a week. She lives way up in the mountains, and it has great views, and is incredibly beautiful. There are Lemon, avocado, and Guava trees right outside her house, too. Ellie is an english cocker spaniel, and she's super smart, but spoiled. She even has her own treadmill that she walks on every day.

So anyway, today my boss came back, and I gave the car back. Part of me is relieved, because that mean I have less responsibility, but I know it won't be long until I really wish I had a car.
