Smoking.

So it's been decided. I've decided to quit smoking. Sure I've tried before and failed. But this time I hope will be different.

Why?

Well, someone in my life asked me to quit. And that was enough. And I am hopeful it'll stick. Well, made a promise to quit. Not in a habit of breaking my promises. So I guess I have no other choice but to hold strong, and make it stick right :)

Anyway. We'll see where this goes.

How's the Movie Experiment going?

Well... hasn't been 1 a day... but I've been trying. Last week:

- Julie and Julia
- Funny People
- (500) Days of Summer
- District 9

This week? Well, what I am shooting for:

Monday: Ugly People

Tuesday: Ponyo

Wednesday: Dare I say it... The Time Traveler's Wife. I know, I know. Judge me. I would judge me to! I mean, it looks SO BAD! And I kinda feel like I saw the movie in the trailer. This is how I see the movie going: Guy comes. Guy goes. Guy comes. Guy goes. Guy and girl fall meet and fall in love. Guy goes. Guy comes. Girl thinks the coming and going gets too hard. Guy goes. Guy comes. Guy goes. Guy comes. They make up...

...and before he goes it probably will end in some cheeseball scene like they're running towards one another in a field. They hug. He'll say something like, "I have to go", she'll be all like, "I know."

He melts away all dramatic. May throw in a lens flare for good measure, annnnnnd fade to black.

That's the movie I see in the trailers. Maybe I'm wrong. I hope so. And they supposedly changed the ending from the book (never I good sign I think). But, we'll see, if I am really bored Wednesday, who knows. Looks to be a busy work week... so maybe I'll have a good excuse not too, haha.

Thursday: No movie, Alacartoona at Jardine's. In KC? You should go! $5 cover I think.

Friday: Inglorious Basterds, then that night: MONGOL BEACH PARTY (Google it KC peoples)

Saturday/Sunday: Not sure... movies opening that weekend seem a little light on shit I would want to see. I mean, do I really want to go see BandSlam or Shorts? Even IF it's a free pass? (the answer you're looking for is probably "no")

That's the week boys and girls. Let me know if you want to join.

Your eyes do not decieve you...

...these are PIE lollipops. Not created by my hand, but they are true nonetheless... and I am strangely finding myself craving one, and disgusted by them at the same time.

Never really wanted to...

...you know drop a shit ton of stickers on my laptop. I mean, you drop a couple thousand on a machine, do you really want to drop a ton of stickers on there? Well, I didn't, until I saw this:

So...

Alacartoona got bumped this week. They'll be playing next week at Jardine's... sigh.

Movie Experiment, part deux...

Did I mention I will be writing about these movies on: fuzzybug.net

enjoy!

Movie Experiment...

Okay so I have this card. This card gives me free movies for a year, me and a guest. Well... it's not free, paid for the stupid thing (but if anyone at AMC wants to give me a free one, I'm not going to say no). Anyway, like a free (actual free) gym membership I got sometime back, not using it as much as I should. So going to try a little experiment. Going to see a movie a day, unless there are plans, gonna see a movie a day until there are no more movies to see. So what's up for this week?

Monday: Julie and Julia

Tuesday: Funny People

Wednesday: The Ugly Truth

Thursday: Have plans, Alacartoona playing at Jardine's. You should go. You know, if you're in KC.

Friday: District 9

Saturday: Ponyo

So there it is. Want to join me? Give me a shout. But this shit is happening.

WIN!!!

Hope for more...

...from Epitaph One. And if you know what I am talking about, well, I think I love you.

It might be wrong...

...but you know you just giggled.

You probably have seen this...

...but I love this. It may make me shallow to be moved by a message of hope driven by celebrities, but the message is the same. And this message taking the shape of a song, a song driven by our President's words, regardless of who sings it, the fact his words are so poetic... this video gives me hope, and drive. However low I may feel, it's important not to lose hope.

Well. I wanted to share this with you, because everytime I see it, hear it... I feel stronger, more peaceful. And I hope you will too.

Are you from Kansas City?

This is just one more reason why I despise Power & Light:

Find the joy in your life...

Have you found the joy in your life?

I hope so.

I'm still looking for the joy in mine. I'm not sure what that is, or where I will find it. I think I knew at one point, that special something. You know, where you know where you belong, where your day gives you meaning. Where each day would present you with challenges that would grow you, teach you. Not only yourself, but extend to those most important to you.

I think I knew what that was. But somewhere along the way I've forgotten. And I want it back, to find it again, to discover it again. I don't want to simply go through the paces of life without thought, immersed in routine, because that's what growing up tells you to do.

I remember there was a movie in which it talked about if you're unhappy with your life, to have the strength to change it. I think I've realized that I am unhappy, as sad as that may sound... I just don't know if I am strong enough to change it.

Not even sure what I would change it to.

But there it is. Me, lost in a sea of doubt, and uncertainty, looking for that happiness. Cause I can't remember the last time that I was, you know, happy. But I'll keep looking. And if you're in the same boat as I am, I hope you will to.

So...

...this evening all I will say is that after a great day I chose to browse the internet only to find a great many things that make my butt itch, and my feet sweat.

And yes, I have been drinking this evening, hey, there was a birthday tonight. And if you know me, you know, if I love you, I love your birthing day.

Anyway. Sad to end a great day and night with the feeling of butt itching and sweating feet.

The end.

Will you?

I wonder if everyone in America will send me $1?

You give me a dollar, wouldn't you?

HULU

So I met people this weekend, people in my age demographic, who didn't know what HULU was. That is SO weird to me. I mean, really weird. Is that wrong?

It was just weird to hear a group of computer literate, young adults, who didn't seem like they stepped off a Amish farm say, "Wow, what is this HULU you're browsing?"

Bonkers.

Huh...

I had no idea the shitbox director Rob Cohen directed Dragonheart. Not a great movie, but WAY better than pretty much anything Cohen has done since. Mummy 3 anyone?

Stuff...

...going through some stuff. But I bought some shoes. Ladies you are right, that shit DOES make you feel better ;)

WHAT THE WHAT!!!

Seriously, I am unabashed about my geek passions, like say comics. Love the comic book. Even as it's become more "chic" to be geek of late, I have to say this guy... taking the fandom to a seriously scary place.

ENJOY!

Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful committed citizens can change the world.
