Will and I watched Troy this afternoon. It’s a really good movie, but it’s hard to enjoy when you know the actual story of the Trojan Wars. I did, however, enjoy half-naked Orlando Bloom and naked Brad… yum! 
I hate to admit, but I think I like the hollywood version of Troy better than the real version haha
I’ve been in a shopping mood lately, so I went to the mall this evening. There were some huge sales going on! I bought a skirt, two belts, and a top from Gap for only $50. I also bought 3 swimsuits and a cute skirt from Aeropostle. The swimsuits were only $20 a piece (for top and bottom). I never shop at that store, but a pair of capri pants on display caught my eye … I’m so glad I ventured inside because the swimsuits I took home are adorable. One of the suits is reversible – a two for one deal! 
Hope everyone enjoyed my pictures from the trip. If you didn’t get to see them, take a peek at the previous blog entry. Before I forget to mention it, the Quilting Bee awarded me with a special patch for my Cozy Quilt 
Emma mentioned in a guestbook entry that I should make more Octopi pixels, so I think I will do that later this week… thanks for the advice, Emma! Have a good night everyone.

I thought Troy was an excellent movie, whether it followed the story exactly or not. I wasn’t expecting it to really follow the story anyway, as most movies like Troy don’t. I thoroughly enjoyed it, and I will definitely be seeing it again.
It sounds like you got some really good deals at the mall. I wish I could afford to go shopping. I can’t even afford to make my usual weekly thrift store rounds anymore. Hmph. I’m glad you were able to bring home some cool stuff though.

I only half assedly know the story of troy so I’m sure it will make no impact on the enjoyment I get from the film when I actually see it. I hope I do because everyone is saying it’s really good.
Anyway can’t wait to see more little octopi pixels

Wow, everyone’s just been raving about Troy. I’m beginning to have higher and higher expectations about the movie. I just hope that by the time I watch it, I won’t be disappointed!
