Calloh! Callay!

I have no clue.

So gang. Tonight I went and saw Alice in Wonderland with me familia. HOLY SMOKES. I LOVED it. Seriously.
If you haven't seen it I highly recommend you do.

In the movie the Mad Hatter quotes the Jabberwock.... I had the privelege of sitting next to my mother during the show. She quoted the WHOLE DANG JABBERWOCK in my ear during the movie.

"Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe; 
All mimsy were the borogoves, 
And the mome raths outgrabe.  
"Beware the Jabberwock, my son 
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun  
The frumious Bandersnatch!"  
He took his vorpal sword in hand;  
Long time the manxome foe he sought—
So rested he by the Tumtum tree,  
And stood awhile in thought. 
And, as in uffish thought he stood,  
The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,
Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,  
And burbled as it came! 
One, two! One, two! 
And through and through 
The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
He left it dead, and with its head  
He went galumphing back.
"And hast thou slain the Jabberwock? 
Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!"
He chortled in his joy. 
'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves 
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe;
All mimsy were the borogoves, 
And the mome raths outgrabe."

Actually, it was quite humorous.
Then, we went to Macaroni Grill for dinner. {my choice:)} It was sort of, kind of, a birthday dinner for me. Which meant FREE CAKE. AKA free put-you-in-a-comma-for-30-days-if-you-eat-the-whole-peice-chocolate-cake. Our waitress was named Carol. She was just a joy. (Little did Carol know that it isn't my birthday until Thursday... he he)

Well, kids. I am bushed. Have a good'n.

P.S. If you love me you will give me a 1.2 million dollar gift card to Anthropologie. Thank you in advance.

Oh my gosh... I love the Jabberwock! I had to learn the song for Honors Choir. It's so great!
