Wow

Dude. This "friends" thing brings a whole new dimension to LJ. Not sure how I feel about that.

Matthew doesn't seem to have updated. The world is falling apart. Life sucks. I am going to.... wait, okay. Repeat to self: not addicted to fanfic, not addicted to fanfic, not addicted to fanfic. Oh, hell. I'm trying to give up my sweets addiction; can't I just keep this one?

Oh, wait. Nevermind. He updated. The world is sweetness and light. God I love this guy.

Shit! Why isn't the printer working????

Once again, my day is beautiful. Took the bus instead of the metro this morning; so much nicer. Beth gave me my very first LJ comment; life is beautiful.

Oops! Must go to class.

So I like that movies have messages. And I like that sometimes I can understand the messages, relate to them, etc. That's great. Spiffy. Moving on. But my problem is this: what if the message, while meaningful and relating to me, is something I already know? Then that's a waste of an hour and a half of my time unless there was a cute guy in the movie. Like, if the movie has a message, it should stretch things farther, make me realize MORE about the message than I already knew.

Beth didn't like "Chasing Amy" cause she already had the message, and it was a why bother kind of thing. I liked it cause I thought the message really had to be out there in a patriarchal and homophobic society, and besides it pushed things farther for me and helped me discover how I look at things. I can see how "The Banger Sisters" message could be important, but I already learned this lesson and incorporated it into my life so I was left feeling disappointed. Why do movies have to be only an hour and a half? So not fair. Cheats us out of lots, especially if well-written. On the other hand, more than 90 minutes of "Knockaround Guys" would have led to homicide on my part. So there is a reason.

Ramble.
