Orphan was actually kind of boring, which is amazing, because how in God's name can any movie with this plot description be boring?

I had a dream last night about an old flame that tangentially involved Livejournal, and so I thought, maybe I'll dust off the old place. My dreams have been weirdly nostalgic and vaguely sexual lately....there has been a little parade of old acquaintances making out with my subconscious dream self ( Read more... ) -
Some things I've looked at recently.
My assessment of Dollhouse: Boring. What's the point of a Whedon show without Whedonesque dialouge? I suppose time will tell, but it seems to episodic for me. Also, I hope the King of the Feminists is enjoying all the naked Eliza Dushku promo shots ( Read more... ) -
Things to Complain About
- I am taking this class on the anthropology of the Middle East, and three weeks of the semester, most of my fellow classmates still seem to think that India is a middle eastern nation. The only ones who do not believe this, apparently, are the ones of middle eastern or Indian origin. And me, of course, but really, I'm a Citizen of the World ( Read more... ) -
Welcome back to me.
Hello there, Livejournal. It's good to see you again. My life had turned to bullshit around October, but recently, it's reverted back to it's usual pleasant state of mild anxiety ( Read more... ) -

3 Notes

One of my fondest memories is utterly losing my shit with the Boy in the Leather Jacket to some amazingly peppy, very English sounding guitar song and feeling as ( Read more... ) -
Once upon a time I was falling in love, now I'm only falling apart....
One of the greatest joys in my life is the Independent Film Channel. Today Total Eclipse was on, which I hadn't seen in a million years. For those of you who aren't big into homoerotic literary bio-pics, it's a movie where a young Leonardo DiCaprio plays Arthur Rimbaud and David Thewlis plays Paul Verlaine. If that sounds really fantastic, let me ( Read more... ) -
Amusing myself to LIFE!
Yesterday I went back to work, which was a blessing a curse. It was a blessing, because my job is actually one of my favorite aspects of my current life, and a curse because I am not entirely recovered from having an organ removed. Being on my feet for eight plus hours has left a pain that I suspect will linger ( Read more... ) -
HOLY SHIT!
My beloved World/Inferno Friendship Society are going to stage a production of their concept album Addicted to Bad Ideas, based upon the life of Peter Lorre. And where are they choosing to stage this, exactly? Oh, only at the very university which I happen to attend! This is truly a wonder. For instance, I wonder why they would chose this ( Read more... )
