Hello dear readers …this is my attempt to write something sensical (if that’s even a word) before I fall into my Tylenol Cold PM induced coma…we’ll see. One of my readers suggested that I should make it my goal to post 5 times a week, and while I’m not sure that even I can handle my navel gazing that many times per week, I decided to make it a challenge to myself.
First off, the latest adventure in my Netflix obsession, which I enjoyed tonight, was Lars and the Real Girl. It was funny and sad and quirky and honest and personal, and I just loved it. I seem to be seeing a lot of great movies lately — why oh why did I not start using my Netflix properly earlier? (For a few months I was Netflix’s greatest dream, paying way too much a month and keeping DVDs for weeks without ever watching them. I’m trying to make up for it now!) By the way, how did my fellow bloggers/Netflix users who were about to watch Into the Wild enjoy it?
My eyelids are starting to droop…must stay awake…
I often wish that there were a device that I could hook up to my computer where my thoughts would just be transcribed into a blog post. Then I wouldn’t have to rouse myself completely from sleep to capture all the brilliant thoughts I have when I am half awake.
Like now. Sheesh, this Tylenol Cold is strong stuff.
Today I woke up at 4:30 am and was wide awake. If that happens again tonight, I promise more blogness…
Heh… if I had such a device, my posts would be filled with a lot more swear words.
Into The Wild was good. Most hilarious for me was the reaction of the audience I saw it with out in Pasadena. I’ll have to find that old post for you at some point…
Nancy Oliver is an amazing writer who worked on SIX FEET UNDER before writing LARS. I haven’t seen it yet but I love love LOVED the script and of course what’s not to like about Ryan G . . .
Glad you enjoyed it!
In the category of movies I haven’t seen made from scripts I loved from the past few years . . . add THINGS WE LOST IN THE FIRE to your queue . . .
