(no subject)
Well, today I checked Livejournal for the first time in quite a while.
Reason being: my laptop is finally fixed and back in my grubby hands, and I was interested in anything the_perkygoff might have written up about Otakon, (the huge geek-tacular anime convention of close to if not more than 20,000 people in Baltimore). I'm not excited at all, because I'm expecting things to go wrong, and probably will up until we actually arrive.
I figure a little bit about current events is in order.
I'm finally settling in at work, though getting up early still remains very unnatural to me.
A job really cuts into your time doesn't it? ^_^ It's scary how little I do, like it saps all my energy for pursuing entertainment out of me.
I feel like I don't read enough, can't bring myself to sit down and watch movies, or play games. I seem to spend rather a lot of time worrying about food and how to budget my money so I don't spend it all on food.
But I do think soon my entertainment cravings will re-stabilize, and life will settle into some sort of pattern that I find suitable.
Today I was really impressed by some movie news, including trailers. Set reports on the movie based on Neil Gaiman's Stardust have got me really hopeful about this movie. A sci-fi movie called The Fountain looks gorgeous, sort of like 2001: ASO with three different stories set in 1500 AD, 2006, and 2500 AD.
Of course the geek in me is pretty jazzed for the CGI Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, rumblings of a Stargate movie sequel, and the Transformers live action movie. And a step in the right direction is that the original voice of Optimus Prime is gonna be him in it, so hurray for the old-school fans.
I think I might try to get a NetFlix account.
And everyone should see Three Extremes because it's fucked up and awesome and bloody and it has three different stories, so one of them you're bound to like.
And I'm kinda really hungry, so if there's anything I forgot to mention that you think should be or whatever, leave a comment.
