the trees are bare, and everywhere the streets are full of strangers

Donnie Darko

Creepy, disturbing movie that made me burrow my face in a pillow on more than one occasion.  Don't really understand that film.  It scared me, yo.  No, really...it scared me.  I don't know why, as I didn't totally "get it," but it left me feeling generally unsettled and anxious.

The perils of dorm-room decorating are vicious and manifold.

At times life seems so grim and cheerless that I can't find one positive thing to say.

Fortunately, this isn't one of those times.

My mom is pretty much the sweetest woman ever.  I love my car in all its serviceable, unfashionable glory.  I love happy music.  I love people.

Sometimes I'm overwhelmed with warm, fuzzy feelings toward the human race in general. On other occasions, I'm inundated with seething resentment  toward it.  Just depends, I guess.  But when people unite to accomplish good things, I love them.  When they are obnoxious and petty, I don't like them much.  I don't know.  I'm confused and tired and, like I said, full of anxiety.  Soon I'll be carried away by a soothing tide of sleep, I hope, and the anxiety will have been washed away by morningtide.

Mo Rocca is rather rakishly dapper.
