Thoughts:
1. Diwali begins Friday. If you normally don't pay much attention to other cultures' holiday phenomena, it might help you navigate a few things this weekend. Namely that The Galaxy is opening what is predicted to be an INSANELY popular new Indian film this weekend. It would behoove you to avoid coming to visit me at work unless you want to watch me run around frantically trying to deal with people.
2. Lars and the Real Girl is a great film. Ryan Gosling is nothing short of perfect in it, to boot. Yes, it can absolutely seem a little derivatively heartfelt here and there, but it's good on the whole. The trailer is very misleading, actually, the film sounds perversely comical when it's actually much more of a serious and bittersweet endeavor. And if you don't tear up while watching the scene with the noosified teddy bear, you officially have no soul. Oh, and I bet I liked this movie a little more because of Nancy Oliver (who wrote episodes of Six Feet Under).
More later, I'm sleepy.
