Cardinals, Dancing With The Stars, A couple movies and a couple dining experiences.

           Probably going to be a long post tonight, just a lot of things on my mind. Skipped watching the Cardinals most of the Cardinals game tonight. I watched Dancing With The Stars and flipped back and forth during commercial breaks. After Dancing With The Stars was over I just skipped watching the rest of it and guessed correctly how it would end up with the Cardinals losing this one.
            Dancing With The Stars was a shocker tonight, I was really surprised they didn't vote the Leah Remini from King of Queens off and Christina Milian got voted off instead. I don't know if I even believe the voting really matters and this isn't just a reality tv move. I'm a big fan of Leah's from King of Queens, but Christina has her beat on dancing. I think Christina was a better dancer than a lot of the ones still on the show.
            Took my mom to Springfield a few days ago and we ate at Old Chicago. I wasn't really impressed this time at all. We went right at lunch so they should have been really busy, but they weren't. They had nothing out on the buffet bar I was interested in, all specialty pizzas. My mom asked if they could put in a pepperoni and so I sit there awkwardly for about 15 minutes while my mom ate. She really didn't like what they had up either, but she was starving. We were seated right next the the buffet and apparently nobody else really liked it either. Most people were ordering off the menu and the pizza just stayed up there the whole time we were there getting older and older. We didn't leave because I knew my mom really had been wanting to eat there and she loves the soup. They normally bring a full bowel full, they brought half less than half. I gave mine to my mom and it barely made a bowel. When they finally got the pepperoni pizza out it was good and it lasted about 5 minutes. I went up to get a piece of pizza and they had let the stack of plates beside the buffet bar dwindle down till there was only about 20 left. I had to tell the manager all their plates were dirty because I couldn't find a clean one. After this time I went back on and lowered the score on my online review of this place.
           Yesterday we drove down to Springfield just to get out of the house for a while and go eat. We ate at Cheddar's and picked up some food at Popeye's to take home. Didn't really go anywhere else down there yesterday, just something to do. Mom is having a hard time getting around so about all she can do is go into a restaurant to eat right now, she can't walk around in any stores or anything.
            I watched Oz The Great And Powerful and Ted. Both movies were ok, I would only give them about 6 out of 10 stars. Oz The Great and Powerful I just didn't like the character, not really impressed with the acting. The movie gets a little better towards the end. Ted had some really funny parts, they really over did it on the drug use though.
            Hello Kitty our outside stray cat has let me pet her a couple times when I'm feeding her. I've been feeding her a lot now since my mom can't so she's getting used to me, still pretty wild though. Unless I've got food she runs. It's kind of the same deal with Yellow our other adopted outdoor stray cat. Hello Kitty likes to be petted I think, but she's just scared. Yellow I think it just moody, sometimes he likes to be petted, sometimes he doesn't care. If he did he would be like if you tell anybody I let you pet me I will kill you! He's always fighting with other cats in the neighborhood, he'll disappear for a while, show back up, usually he's all banged up. A week or two ago he had a pretty nasty looking wound on one of his legs and after several attempts we got close enough to spray some medicine on it. I don't know how much good it did, it looked to be a few days old and already healing up, but better than nothing I guess.
