Okay. Let me start with the background information, if I may…
Earlier tonight Mike twittered “watching Vantage Point”. Then after his movie was over, I spoke to him on the phone. This is the general start of our conversation:
Me: Hey! How’d you like Vantage Point, Round 2?
Mike: Round 2?
Me: Well yeah, you’re home viewing. Since we saw it in the theater.
Mike: I’ve never seen this movie before tonight. I didn’t see it in the theater.
Me: Yes you did! We saw it in the theater, and people around us were complaining about the ‘rewind’ technique that they used.
Mike: I didn’t see this in the theater! Was it someone else you were with? Did I see a different movie? I’ve never seen this before!
…Let’s just say, this conversation continued for awhile. Mike insists he’s never seen it (and it’s not really a movie you’d forget, or want to watch twice) and I was positive that I saw it with him. We looked through all related blogs, we checked our google calender that we update…and nothing. We cannot figure out the truth….what really happened back in February 2008 when this movie was released? Did I see this movie with you, honest reader? Was it Mike? Please help us. It’s no longer a matter of insisting one is right and one is wrong, it’s just not. It’s really a matter of finding out the truth, to put us at ease in this bizarre situation where we completely forget what actually happened in relation to seeing Vantage Point.

ha ha okay. so school is getting crazy. i’ll apologize right now - if i snap at/around you, or walk around in a haze and don’t notice you - it’s just the “end of the semester blues”. please forgive me, and allow me to make it up to you later. just 3 more papers, 2 presentations, and 4 exams till freedom*! until then, enjoy these silly pictures that in all my stressed-out-ness, still made me laugh a lot. hey! get outside and enjoy the nice weather for those of you who can! 
Add longer hair and 4 more cups of coffee, and it’s me!
HA HA HA HA HA. Funny.
HA! This is the best one yet. Silly.
* By freedom, I just mean until it’s summer and I’m still working as much, just in warm weather.
