Have been contemplating putting together a post about body image and body acceptance but am not entirely sure what I want to say. Plus, you know, it's all tied up in crazy issues because, well, doesn't everyone have crazy body image issues? So I guess I'll spare you all that for the moment.

I have seen things besides Star Trek in the past week. No

Though I do kind of want to see the scene where Doc and Marty first meet. I have this picture in my head of this crazy-haired guy practcally running over a pre-teen sitting on the curb, covered in dirt and bruises cause the kids were picking on him again. Hmmmm *ponders*

Mmkay, now I want to read that too. Who can we force to write it? *joins you in pondering*

I know, right? I just got this strong feeling while I was watching that Marty didn't turn out okay because of his parents but because of Doc. Especially in the first movie Marty's parents seem so separate from him, as if they hardly know him or he hardly knows them.

And then I just saw this kid in my head. How he was small for his age and he had all these dreams and ambitions but the world just keeps on grinding him down. Actually, the more I think about it the more I'm sure that Marty ran into Doc on his skateboard and because of how Doc reacted Marty kind of ends up following him home and hanging around whenever he has a chance.

Man, this means I'm really going to have to write this. Oh brain, why do you love hate treat me this way?
