The Road goes ever on and on Down from the door where it began. Now far ahead the Road has gone, And I must follow, if I can, Pursuing it with eager feet, Until it joins some larger way Where many paths and errands meet. And whither then? I cannot say. J.R.R. Tolkien

Damn the Floor and Damn AFI

So, I'm watching 'so you think you can dance' last night, but during a commercial I'm flipping (I miss my pvr and being able to fast forward through the commercials). And I see an AFI (American Film Institute) special. I love their specials (as I'm sure you are aware if you have read my posts). But, I was confused. This appeared to be the Top 100 Movies, but not the list I had finally finished watching. Then they mentioned this was the '10th anniversary' edition. What? I now have to figure out the differences in the list and see more movies? I know, I don't have to, but I'm kind of obsessive in that respect. Anyway, I will keep you posted on how different the list is (I didn't get to watch the whole thing and I didn't have a chance today to look it up). But, number 1 and 2 weren't any different and I still agree (Godfather and Citizen Kane).

As for the floor, well, I'm pretty sure I've posted it before, but maybe not. The floor at the casino and I have been at war since I started here. Back in December I kept slipping on different sections of the floor and at one point I ended up falling and spilling the contents of my purse all over the floor. Well, there had been a reprieve for the past few months. Little did I know the floor was planning a sneak attack to be launched today at lunch. As I left the cafeteria the floor struck. This time it took out both heels in a show of power and I ended up on my knees with my water bottle skittering across the floor. When I looked up I noticed that two of the guys I work with were staring at me. They asked if I was okay (I was, just really embarrassed) and I ducked into the bathroom. When I got back to my desk they had sent me a link to a website about 'walking courses' yep courses on how to walk. The floor definitely won this battle.
