I love the sound of fire alarms at midnight

Mar 22, 2006 00:18

Lying in bed watching tv and about to fall asleep here 20 minutes ago and all of a sudden I hear a piercingly loud deafening beep in my apartment. Get out of my room to realize that it's my building's fire alarm and everyone is outside. Seems some idiot or idiots pulled one of the fire alarms in the building and pissed us all off immensely. Now I'm much more awake thanks to this event. On the brightside, the fire department did a hell of a job on the response time, only took about 5 minutes for them to be on site ready to roll in there in case of a real fire, so I feel better if there ever was a real fire here.

Springbreak was good. Seeing the family and some friends again. Hockey night was fun, despite the outcome. Funniest thing to me was how Tampa now wants to be known as Hockey Bay, USA. Nice ripoff of a real hockey team and city, as Detroit is known as Hockeytown, USA for the Red Wings. But what do you expect from a bunch of bandwagoners.

Saw some movies as I usually do in my spare time. The Hills Have Eyes and V for Vendetta amongst newly released films. Both were good films. Finally saw a couple movies Dustin told me to check out a long time ago. Got Big Trouble from Netflix, very funny. Also saw Hearts in Atlantis on TV while on break, awesome film. Watched The Ice Harvest and Rebel Without a Cause the other day. Saw some Roberto Rossellini films in my film class yesterday. I enjoyed Rome, Open City which is supposedly one of the most influential films of all time according to my professor, he put it in the category with Citizen Kane and Goddard's Breathless(seeing that later in the semester).

Just picked up Cell by Stephen King and Everything's Eventual by King as well today at Barnes and Noble, looking forward to reading some King again, been a little while.
