There weren't a great deal of movies that appealed to me last year. I passed on most of the big ones, both in the theater and on DVD, but here are the ones I'm happy to have seen...

Best Exotic Marigold Hotel
Brave
Hugo (not sure if that counts; it was a 2011 release and I saw it on 1/1/12)
Monsieur Lazhar
Moonrise Kingdom
Ruby Sparks

I don't think I ever said this, but I did get a new television. Got it at the very beginning of February, in fact. It's a 26" SHARP LCD flatscreen, which I got for a more than decent price at Costco - my brother's best friend is a member and he kindly took me. I love it and so far it works just fine with my old (circa 2000) DVD player. *knocks wood ( Read more... )

I have voted.

*grinds teeth but settles down to wait*

Mostly moved. Have internets, though!

Have to go clean old place and get rid of trash.

Current (now old) apartment now devoid of furniture!

Movers have the van packed up and ready to go, so I'm off to the new place's office to sign the lease and get the keys.

Dylan is poking around the old apartment with the rest of my things; I'll be going back and forth all day. More later.

It's late Sunday right now. I didn't do a whole lot this weekend, which I'm not too thrilled about ( Read more... )

I know. It's been far too long since I updated. But it's awfully hot and I really don't feel like doing anything more strenuous than lying on the couch and communing with my cats. So when the temperature falls under, say, 95, that's when I'll write. Okay?

...to spend your life. Yeah, baby.

The H-bomb didn't tap his arm incessantly on Saturday night, which pleased me immeasurably. He sang "no sugar in my coffee, no sugar in my tea" a couple times as well. What a relief.

Headstones kicked ass. As Tam said, I met Trent. Who's, well...adorable. So's his girlfriend Sara. Heh. And I think I met ( Read more... )

It's been what, over a week since I last wrote? Well...let's see, I went and saw my girl, which was fucking fantastic. We went to open mic and saw the boys play, but she wouldn't sing. I'm still a little unhappy about that. But she's promised to call and hold the phone up if L sings that Paul Simon song tomorrow. Because she's cool like that. We ( Read more... )
