I will be detoxing the next couple weeks, meaning no alcohol and getting back onto the elliptical. I must have had dozens of beers this weekend, not to mention the few other beverages which I imbibed in. I never really got too drunk though, mostly because I spread said drinks over the course of many hours and many days ( Read more... )

I rewatched my favorite movie last night...for the millionth time, but none of them recent. I remembered the first, seeing these beautifully flawed characters stretched larger than life from the front row of a packed theater. I reconnected to the music, and felt nostalgic for a time I couldn't possibly remember. I remembered my own starry-eyed ( Read more... )

So i started this tradition sometime in college (i can't quite remember when it began) of the V-Day DVD marathon. Every year I go for a different theme and the only real requirement is that it go sort of against the whole lovey-dovey grossness of Valentines Day. If I recall correctly, the first one was "movies about dysfunctional relationships" ( Read more... )

my apartment is clean, and relatively picked up. i feel like i'm maybe living like a human again, though i have several bags of items that need to be taken to goodwill/the used bookstore and still have a big pile of things that need to go to the dumpster. that's mostly due to the fact that i cleaned out my storage closet and am tossing several ( Read more... )

i certainly didn't spend all of saturday watching the america's next top model marathon on vh1...

no. technically i also finished reading I am America (and so can you), watched Liar Liar & The Tiger & the Snow and took elliot for a walk. :o)

I'm going to see Juno this weekend. I don't care when, or with whom but it opens in Phx tomorrow and I will be up there so I am going to see it :o)

Anyone in??

some bastard is cooking biscuits and they smell delicious. are these people trying to make me fat???

ps- Gone Baby Gone is amazing. Ben Affleck may have redeemed himself, just a little bit.

i have been in the mood to comedy-binge lately...since i got all up to date on "dexter" anyway. this has led me to discover two films which i had previously missed out on: real genius and snakes on a plane, the first being far better than the second, though it has some charms as well...mainly the snakes' choice of biting locales and the utter ( Read more... )

i have been in a strange mood pretty much all weekend. it has manifested itself in a multitude of ways. yesterday it made me ask mom to come down here so i would have someone to go shopping with. of course i found only three things, and refused to try on any shoes because shoe-shopping is the most depressing act ever for a person with weird- ( Read more... )

maybe i've just been too exposed to the media lately, but it seems like every movie i've seen in the past week is some sort of amalgamation of other films/tv shows/etc. or maybe these films ARE just derivatives of other popular things...maybe ALL films are and i'm just especially cognizant of it right now. Spoilers are possible... ( we'll start with tuesday's movie... )
