i count my life on my fingertips.
Eek. Tomorrow is Monday. Sad times. This weekend was tragically unproductive in the academic sense of the word.
I saw The Black Dahlia. Save your money, kidlets. It was bad. Like laughably bad. I've never held Scar-Jo or Josh Hartnett in the highest regards as actors, and well, let's just say after this film I probably never will. I mean, I knew this was supposed to be film noir-esque, you know, girl walks into the detective agency, and baby's got a sordid past with a crooked boyfriend, cue the music and the swelling romance and all that other stuff...but man, was this bad. I actually laughed. It was a movie about a mutilated young actress and I was laughing. That kind of math just doesn't quite add up.
And because reading about the Korean War isn't my idea of a good time, a meme to pass the time (stolen from

Sex reminds her of eating spaghetti
I am wasted but I'm ready"
- "Wasted and Ready" Ben Kweller
2. Touch:
"And if the snow buries my,

Waving you
Good-bye."

4. Depress:
"Her green plastic watering can
For her fake Chinese rubber plant
In the fake plastic earth
That she bought from a rubber man
In a town full of rubber plants
To get rid of itself.
It wears her out, it wears her out
It wears her out, it wears her out."
- "Fake Plastic Trees" Radiohead
