I'm feeling a bulletpoint post coming... you might want to back away slowly.
- Easter was a success. I spent the entire afternoon cuddled on the sofa with my sister watching TV. She made me watch "Burlesque" which I had successfully avoided until then (but it wasn't as bad as I thought,) and then insisted that I watched the first two episodes of "Touch" that may be one of the very few TV shows that gets aired in Italy at the same time it airs in the US. I loved it, btw. Have now watched all the aired episodes (four until now) and I'm hooked.
The best part of Easter, of course, was the evening. The show we went to see, the solo act of our favorite Italian comedian, was three and a half hours long and I don't think I stopped laughing once during all that time. Brilliant!
- Speaking of the show I saw on Easter, one thing the actor joked about was fans coming up to him asking for pics when it's six in the morning and he still has to drink his coffee. He was, of course, very funny about it and all, but it made me wish many so called fangirls could hear what he was saying and maybe think twice before approaching someone famous. Just because we think it'll be a great idea to stop someone from drinking his coffee and make him do stupid faces at our cameras, doesn't mean it actually is a great idea. And this is actually what I'd have liked to post as a reply to something someone wrote in a community...
- Lately I find myself really detached from things that happen around me. I'm not usually able to let things slide, to just shrug and say "No actual skin off my back." These days that's exactly what I think and do. I don't know what brought on this change in my attitude but I have to say I like it. Hopefully it'll last.
- There's a bunny floating around in my brain and I'm both excited and terrified. It'll be a long journey, I believe.
- I'm having very detailed weird dreams lately. They puzzle me a lot. My mind is a scary place.
- Finally I gave in and watched "American Horror Story" since everyone was ranting and raving over it, and called it brilliant. I thought it was pretty stupid, actually, and only liked Zachary Quinto. But then again, I seriously dislike horror movies, they all ring unbelievable and stupid to me, so I shouldn't have expected to like that series. It shocks me that AHS it's been confirmed for season 2, though, while something like "Ringer," that admittedly was not as spectacular as it had seemed in the beginning but still managed to be quite interesting, is likely to be cancelled, and something as brilliant as "Revenge" still has to be picked up for season 2. The rules of television are incomprehensible to me some times.
- It's unpopular opinion time in this post, it seems, so let me say that I can't understand how people can say that "Shame" is a masterpiece. It's not that bad, imo, just watchable actually, and Fassbender is good in it (and he's definitely something to look at... whoa!!) but masterpiece? No.
That's about it. Have a good week, f-list!
