It's been a pretty good week to start off the last full month of summer ( Read more... )

Well...looks like I spent way too much time on my last post and I ran out of energy to go any further. I'll try to sum everything up in this post...with pics!

Ugh, I've felt like ass lately. I think I've got a quasi-summer-sickness - I haven't been able to sleep right the past two nights, I am coughing a lot tonight, and this is all before my big Grouse Grind adventure on Thursday evening. Ugh ( Read more... )

Wow, has it been a busy few weeks or what? It's going to be a fun and exhausting summer for sure!

Particularly his opening sequence, where he rips into Slumdog Millionaire, Milk, The Dark Knight, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, Frost/Nixon, The Reader, and The ( Read more... )

Well I had a very good weekend. It won't be as glowing a review as it would've been had I written it yesterday, because our "special friendship" is going through a troublesome time right now - as we're trying to define it ( Read more... )

The Dark Knight, currently the second highest grossing movie (in the US and Canada) of all time, has met an untimely and disappointing end ( Read more... )
