Commandment #11:

Thou shalt grill thy own meat.

I went to this place called The Monastery on Saturday with a group of girls from church. Sounds pretty freaking holy, right? Fooled you! (said in Dark Helmet voice) No, The Monastery is actually a bar/restaurant in Mesa. The bartenders wear monk's frocks, you can play a rousing game of horseshoes while listening to a live band, and yes, you grill your own meat. If you order a burger, they give you this packet that contains a bun, a slice of cheese, and a hunk of raw cow. You take your bag o' burger stuff over to these giant outdoor grills and grill to your heart's content. They have all the seasonings and condiments you could ask for, but the burger flipping is up to you. Weird...but fun.

I watched lots of movies in the past few days, ranging from mediocre to great. These are all movies I have owned for varying amounts of time, but for one reason or another, have never seen.
Here's the list in order of the length of time I owned the movie before watching it, from longest (FOUR. YEARS.) to least (1 week):
1. The Royal Tenenbaums
2. Braveheart
3. Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World
4. Shopgirl
5. First Knight (*cough*mediocre*cough*)
6. Love Actually

And to those of you who were freaked out by the angora rabbit...pansies. And by "pansies" I mean, "I totally agree."
