Thank you to everyone who shared concern and advice, I very much appreciate it. I spoke with my insurer this morning and everything looks alright.
On the lighter side, a streak of watching good movies have replenished my optimism that good acting and meaningful themes will continue to live on in films. Prayers for Bobby was simply a Lifetime movie but left me bawling my eyes towards the end. Another film that left me in tears was the blockbuster Changeling. Though I was appalled by the true events I was also moved by the tragedies and the courage. It’s been a while since a movie made me cry. I also saw the emotionally intense Slumdog Millionaire and that turned out really good too.
I've also rented and watch a couple gay films by here! and both seemed just to appeal the straight acting (military, surfer) gay boy fantasy into play. Eh
It has been a few years since I’ve really paid attention to the Oscars. I thought Hugh Jackman made the awards show worthwhile watching, although Beyonce’s appearance and lip-syncing totally downgraded the moment. Sean Penn and Dustin Lance Black’s acceptant speeches were touching. Kate Winslet had my support although 1.) while I haven’t seen The Reader, I didn’t much care for Revolutionary Road though thought she did a superb acting job and 2.) there were probably a couple other actresses like Angelina Jolie for Changeling, who would’ve deserved it as well. Speaking of Jolie, the camera cut from Jennifer Aniston to her was pretty classless but interesting no less. Aniston should’ve dressed up more, you know a more elegant dress and hair put up. She looked like she just came from the beach with that braded hair piece and threw on some dress. Pardon my gay French but “shit bitch your ex was there with his hot wife. Dress yourself up!”
Ah, well I’m about to have another gay female celebrity ranting (ranting seems all I do on LJ anyway):
I’ve been watching clips from Kylie’s X Tour DVD and comparing them to Madonna’s Sticky and Sweet (that I did not see live), I think I have to give it to Kylie with her vocals and performance combination. You can judge yourself (before Geoff burns Kylie to a crisp):
