Understudy

She just wants an understudy, a body
double for the days when she does
not feel like appearing in any of the roles
she has assumed and/or been assigned.
She places an ad in the paper. Wanted:
one wife, mother, daughter, neighbor,
friend. Live-in OK. Own car necessary.
No lines to memorize; everything ad-
libbed. No days off.

For Cathy - Wordless Wed. late again

Nothing to say?

I have nothing to say lately. Have you noticed? lol

I went to the American Beauty Project this past weekend. That was interesting. It is a tribute of sorts to the Grateful Dead. A different band plays each a song on Workingman's Dead and the American Beauty album. We went Sunday, which was The American Beauty album.

Surprisingly all the GD songs I know come from this album! Although it usually makes me cry, I have to say one of my favorite Dead songs is Box of Rain and the interpretation of it at the ABP **REALLY** made me wanted to cry!! I can appreciate the artists talent but her version was just horrid, maybe even beyond horrid.

A Friend of A Devil wasnt bad but if **I** noticed you messed up the words and music to Grateful Dead song well you really must have messed them up!!!

OTOH Dar Wiliams did a simply beautiful Ripple.

Truckin was fine as was the encore number Going Down the Road and Feeling Bad. (Which I dont think is from the AB album and I am not sure that is even the name of the song. lol) The rest of the songs I do not know and I liked then well enough but not really knowing the GD version I shouldnt comment on them.

There was a lot of talking by the emcee in between each song and that was kinda boring. People were even falling asleep!! I guess maybe it was not so bad if you were into the history of it and the music but I was there just to dance. We actually had one guy Sushhhhhh us a few times for having too much fun!! Felt like I was at a Who concert and not something related to The Grateful Dead!!! Every Dead show I have ever been to has always been about fun fun fun -- probably too much fun!!! and of course dancing dancing dancing.

This review probably sounds negative but I did have a great -- or should I say grate ;) -- time!!!

Where's Kenny????

Is what you have been emailing me. I know ladies sorry I missed Wordless Wed this week -- next week 2 pics! I promise! lol

Dirty Filthy love

Clearly I am sucker for a movie with creative camera shots/editing.

There was not as much of it as in Pieces of April or Garden State but still I heart the shot of the main charcter shaving in the beginning and the shots in the van towards the end.

The movie over all is sad and touching. Totally different from what I usually watch.

Now off to finish Disc Two of Season 1 Weeds.

Next batch

The latest movies I watched are Dreamland, Myth of Fingerprints, The Break-Up and Clean.

The first two were okay, they were entertaining enough but didnt truly move me in the way you need to keep watching.

The Break-Up was funny, a lthough it was a bit sad.

Clean was good. I really liked it. It was about a woman trying to reclaim her life after years of drug abuse, widowhood, etc. Here is more info: cleanmovie.blogspot.com

Next up is Dirthy Filthy Love

I know you all been waiting for

my Wordless Wednesday a pic -- sorry its late but the cutest one ever!

You never know I just might ;) lol

In the year 2007 I resolve to: Start working on the street corner. Get your resolution here.

Pieces of April

This was a great movie. I loved the camera angles, the shots, etc. It was much on the line of Garden State.

I also have a thing for movies where the entire story occurs in one day, That was this -- it took place on Thanksgiving.

movies, movies, movies

Ever since I got my new lap top I have a habit of taking it to bed with me and watching dvds until 3 a.m. I didnt say it was a good habit!

In the past couple of days I have seen Something New, The Devil Wears Prada and the first 6 episodes of Weeds Season 1. The latter is my favorite thus far. For tonight I have Pieces of April.

But first the new season of The L Word begins in 20 minutes!!!
