It Happens in 3's

...and I am not even talking about celebrity deaths. How come unexpected expenses, bad luck or breakages come in 3's. First our dryer stopped drying clothes and then our relatively new MAC computer blew out some internal power fuse and wouldn't turn on and now my husband's piece of crap, it's really a lemon, Volkswagon Jetta over heated on the freeway at 4:30AM in the morning and he had to get towed to a repair shop. Lucikly in this round of breakages the costs have been kept to a mimimum. We called our home warranty place and they told us they don't cover dryers so that made us freak about having to buy a new washer. Luckily in the end, the broken dryer prompted my husband to sit down and fix the dryer himself. Then last week the hub sat down to our computer and couldn't get the thing to turn on. We freaked as this was only 2 years old and we had no idea how much that would cost to get fixed. Luckily in this case the Genius Bar people told us we had purchased the AppleCare package so that repair was free. Finally, this past week, the hub calls me and tells me his car is over heating and leaking coolant. Now in this case because the car is truly a piece-of-shit-lemon we had to pay for something. But we were planning for the worse thinking we would have to go out car shopping. Luckily as it turns out we only have to spend a few hundred dollars to get it fixed. But believe me we are still probably going to go car shopping. When it rain it poors. Why is that?

What is Twilight?

I have loved movies and worked in movies and I consider myself knowledgable about movies but I have no idea what this whole Twilight craze is all about. Do you? I know it's something to do about vampires and that it's the new Harry Potter but what the heck is it? All of the sudden everywhere I go I hear about Twilight. They are interviewing talent on the radio and I have no idea who these stars are. It's like Hollywood grew a new list of talent over night and didn't tell me. Anyhoo, that movie opened last night to gang buster numbers but yet, I have no idea. I have no idea about the Jonas Brothers either. Am I getting old? I guess so.
