Movie update: watched "Dr. Strangelove, or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb" and "Rain Man" today. The former didn't particularly excite me, although in its defense I had all sorts of other things on my mind (I was talking on the computer, I read some things...granted, none of this reflects well on the movie's capacity to bring you in). The latter, however, is fucking fantastic; Hoffman's performance was so convincing, so thorough, and so touching; and Tom Cruise actually impressed me, for once (not something I'm very keen on admitting, as some of you know). I've decided that my opinion of him is not as low as it was before, though I don't completely abandon my prior complaints. I'm probably gonna watch "Midnight Cowboy" or "Y Tu Mama Tambien" tonight, tomorrow I'm gonna watch "The Terminal" with a few friends, and some time next week I'm supposed to see "Saved!" with another friend; all in all, I'm definitely taking care of my movie intake pretty well.
The beach, however, is still up in the air. Hopefully a trip to it will occur before I head off to Cali. If not, definitely soon afterward.
About a week after I get back from Cali. I'm going to visit family in D.C. for five days. This should be nice, especially since I rarely am able to see them, though it'll be bittersweet, since it'll probably be the last time I can see a certain family member before she passed away. I hope, at least, to be lucky enough to spend time with her throughout the visit, and help fill her time left here with love.
Also, I'm looking to read a whole lot before I leave for Cali. I need to get things like that done now, while I can, because once I'm back I predict that I'll be damn busy with all sorts of things.
Speaking of things I need to do, I still barely have any script ideas developed. I'm gonna throw some together in the next few days, in hope of at least making some headway. One among you readers of this very live journal has offered to help me bounce ideas around and develop them, and ye shall be notified once there is anything to play with.

I'm yearning to write something new. I'm hoping some substance will come to me before I waste this feeling away.
Oh, and as a matter of interest:
Alex pointed this out, and it is very true: the word "meaty," when used in reference to one's penis, is pretty nasty. Honestly, it seems like it would be a pretty big turn-off to refer to your thang in that way; any thoughts on that idea, womanly readers?
And, with that, I'm off for the night. Sleep well, all.
