Movie listings
I had a nasty nightmare last night that kept coming back, even though I woke
myself up from it three times. I was a little shaken today. I won't describe
it, as it was too disturbing.
I felt pretty zen, however, after an hour and a half of Qi-Gong meditation in
my experiential methodology class. So zen, in fact, that I decided I would
rather not go to my pointless Human Rights class, which always stresses me out
with its fruitlessness.
So I went to Westgate and picked up a few things.
And I had a HUGE sub from Subway, one of them toasted ones. It was pretty
good. I still can't get over how different that place is since I used to work
there. And I've long since stopped requesting that they cut the bread
old-school, with the U-gouge at which I was so proficient. There's such a
high turnover at these places that none of those kids would know what I was
talking about. So, despite dropping half the contents of my sub on my lap, I
am sated, and will be so for sometime.
With a full belly and a clear mind, I'm *almost* looking forward to going to
work. I still have some notes to take on my presentation (BTW, Andy, that
clip plays fine off the CD on my computer, so I'm hoping it was just the PC we
were on last night), and then I'm set for the morrow. I might watch a movie
or something when I get home. I have to get up early for the chiropractor,
but I can handle that.
Andy and I saw "The Incredibles" last night. It was pretty funny. There was
a lot of humour that would not have registered in children's minds, but which
was pretty funny to us. There's this particular scene in a Winnebago that's
quite amusing. I recommend it.
I actually want to see a lot of movies this season:
Alexander (although Colin Farrell looks uncannily like my brother)
SpongeBob (don't tell anyone!)
Alfie (Jude Law is just too cute)
Motorcycle Diaries (nothing like a spiritual journey to whet a social
scientist's artistic appetite)
Polar Express (I like Tom Hanks, okay? I admit it)
Ray (DAMN this looks good)
Shark Tale (Will Smith is perfectly symmetrical. 'Nuff said.)
Bridget Jones 2 (Apparently, I'm getting Stefan and Andy to watch the first
one, then I'm dragging them to see the second -- HEEHEE!)
Vanity Fair (I liked the book, and I love Reese Witherspoon)
Surviving Christmas (only because I like that scene where Ben Affleck gets hit
in the head with a shovel -- I could replay that for hours)
Also, I got a very sad email from Lisa yesterday. She's heading to India on
the 21st of December, but her connecting flight from Providence to Mumbai
leaves her in Toronto for NINE HOURS. So she wants me to go and see her.
Seeing as I haven't seen her since August, and won't see her again until our
joint birthday adventure in March, I'm willing. However, I'm not too keen on
spending five hours sitting next to an annoying stranger on the bus, so if
anyone wants to come with me as a travel companion, maybe see your peeps in
Tdot, please let me know. It's a Tuesday, so I figure I'll get that day off work. Maybe Chel, if she's super
nice, will let me crash at her place, which means I can come up Monday night
and then be fresh as a daisy for Tuesday. But I've got a month to figure this
out.
Anyway, I should get my ass in gear, stop flirting with the Pie over the
internet, and get some work done before I go to work. *Sigh*
