I'm watching Fight Club on DVD. I didn't expect much from it - it's really Palahniuk's writing style that makes it such a good book, rather than the plot. Chuck Palahniuk has a distinct writing style that you never think is "okay." It's never so-so. You can either love or hate it, but it always leaves an impression on you. But the movie so far is pretty good. The acting is excellent, and the directing is...well, average, to be honest. But I can see how turning a book like Fight Club into a movie would be unimaginably difficult. Personally I wouldn't dream of attempting it. Too much substance, too impossible to take off paper and put on film. Too many fans to let down and write you hate mail.
My father surprised me on Thursday night with a Nikon D70. On the count of three, envy me. 1, 2, 3. It's amazing and I love it to death. I went shooting for hours today and was blown away. I don't deserve this camera, I know. But I love it still, yeah.

I'm hungry. This entry is pointless. I should stop feeling bad about letting my LJ die down now that it's public.
