look at this - 3 posts in 3 days. amazing. i should really try to get back to posting every day. :shrug: we'll see.

we went to see the spirit last night. randomest film ever. i can see why it got 14% on rottentomatoes (even though metacritic gave it 30). some scenes just seemed to come out of nowhere, as if frank miller sat down with the objective of surprising his audience. or maybe it's will eisner's objective - i don't know; i didn't read the comic. but for all that, i still enjoyed it. it made me laugh in parts and it had a good ending.

i got about 9 hours sleep last night :) add that to the 11 hours on monday night and you get a well-adjusted me, content and able to interact with people on a normal level. we'll see how long this lasts once i get into work.

right, gotta go. ooh - acually - i was in town yesterday and i got a new wallet. it's about twice the volume of my old wallet and it dosn't fit in my pocket nearly as well, but it's pretty looking. i also picked up the three musketeers, a book i've been meaning to read since forever. it's a new (2005) translation i got, so hopefully it will be written in a style that's easy enough to read. having to keep track of 20-comma-sentences just dosn't happen for me. i'm hoping it will be good because the 2003 translation of dante's inferno that i have is excellently translated (by a belfast man, no less).

ok - i really have to go now.

  1. I can't decide if it was too bad to be redeemable or so bad its good. Still SamL was cool. and Eva Mendes ftw.
