Hobbit Home?

Isn't this cool? This guy built a whole home out of natural materials in Wales. And he and his family actually live there. It looks so cozy! And I love the Tolkien theme. Sooo fun. :)

I Wanna Be a Trekkie

Maybe that's not something I should publicly admit. But it's the truth. Call me a nerd, I can handle it.

I saw the new Star Trek movie the other day and LOVED it! Not terribly confusing, but enough that I want to see it again to understand it. I didn't know a thing about Star Trek before seeing it, and I still wasn't confused. I think they did a great job.

Now I'm not quite obsessed, but we'll say intensely interested. I'm convinced I should be Vulcan, because I thrive off of logic. But the eyebrows? Maybe not.

So if you are a Trekkie, or want to be, you'll like these links:

Harry Craze!

Go ahead, call me a nerd. But I will still love Harry Potter.

I remember when my 5th grade teacher, Ms. Bowen, introduced me to Harry Potter and I've been hooked ever since.

And now the movie for Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince is coming out this month and suddenly my nerdiness is revived. (Find the preview here.) I'm planning on reading the 6th and 7th books again while I am at Lake Powell this week.

Speaking of Lake Powell, I can't wait to water ski!
