With all of the hype around the 'Harlem Shake' dance I had to look up 'Harlem Shuffle' on Youtube. It was a Rolling Stones song I heard as a youngster. The video I found had Carmen Electra in it, who was doing various suggestive poses. Does it seem relevant again when she was married to former NBA player Dennis Rodman, who just met with the North Korean dictator? possibly.
I just e-filed my federal income tax return through H and R Block, later than most years. Now it's on to the state return soon. I am able to file the federal for free but not the state return so I usually send in the state forms myself.
The plans called for seeing the Ice Castles at Mall of America, but it was closed due to the weather. It had been raining quite a bit. It was the last scheduled day for it, so now it's closed for the season. I went over to the nearby IKEA store with my date and we got some various food items, including cheese as I really like cheese. I responded to all of my birthday wishes on Facebook that I saw, I think there were 52 total. I'm thrilled to get so many well-wishings and like letting all of these people know this. Before going to the Mall, we ate at a Perkins as there was a coupon to be used up soon. In the evening we ate at a Dairy Queen for the same reason. I found my DVD copy of the movie 'Up in the Air' and we watched it. I laughed a lot while watching it. I knew this was a Jason Reitman-directed movie, and I like many of those he's done like 'Thank You For Smoking', 'Juno', and "Young Adult'. He's willing to handle social issues that not everybody's willing to tackle. I said I liked 'Air' as it was a Midwest story, though having George Clooney in it sure helps. Most of the cities they visit are in this region. There were some things in it I said I could relate to, like seeing mostly empty cubicles in the office due to the economy. And I liked how they did cover the small-town part of the Midwest as well, when he's attending his sister's wedding in northern Wisconsin. There was one connection to my favorite movie that I liked, 'Good Will Hunting', and it was the choice of a song. A memorable one from 'Hunting' was 'Miss Misery' by Elliott Smith. In 'Air' they have another song of his, 'Angel in the Snow'.
