movie binge…monday blues

well maybe monday blues isn’t the best description. but it was a little difficult to get up this morning. that’s what i get for going to bed late over the weekend…and why did i go to bed late over the weekend you ask?

started off saturday night. luis, camilo and went out to jp seafoods for dinner with the intent of catching a movie at the theater at night-but by the time we were done eating we weren’t really up for traveling anywhere. so instead we headed over to video underground (best movie rental place ever) to pick up some movies to watch at home. We each got a movie of our chioce: luis chose The Passenger (1975), which was directed by Michelangelo Antonioni; camilo chose Thrashers’ Beers Bowls & Barneys (2004); and i selected Shortbus (2006), which was directed by John Cameron Mitch. three very different movies which we watched in that very same order listed above…it was an interesting combination of movies too-which made for n interesting evening. we started off with a movie that was very visual, beautiful scenes with very little dialog, followed by (what was very tense for me to watch) a series of clips of people skateboarding in pools-and falling hard on the concrete, ending with a movie with a few orgy scenes and lots of nudity (which was kinda hot). so at the end of the night-which was around 3am, it was a good night.

next day camilo and i brunched at dogwood, came back to check out an apt in jp, and chilled for a bit after that till i got enough energy in my to pick up the place and make a little dinner. then luis came over again and joined us to watch out netflix movie Talladega Nights (2006)…next thing you know-it’s midnight!

so here i am, monday afternoon, looking forward to that time where like in the flintstones intro i can say ” yaba daba dooooo” (this is where he’s working and the coworker looks at his watch and then pulls the string that’s attached to the bird to ring the alarm letting him know he can go home)…anyway-you get the point.

happy monday!

    I hate the movies. BUT, now that I have a larger TV and OnDemand from Comcast, I’ve already watched…

    Smokey and the Bandit
    Blue Thunder
    FX
    FX2
    Annie Hall
    Rush Hour

    and a few others. And I’ve only had this since Thursday.

    Wonder what the summer will bring with new releases. I’m never leaving the house.

    Saw Rush Hour II last night.

    It’s good to keep one post up here. That way I’ll just come here when I see a movie. Keeps it simple.

    Yay!

    Hope all is well. I will not be buying your PS2 stuff because I’m destitute. Stupid taxes.

    But I will urge other buyers to contact you day and night to get the games and the system.

    Later,

    Jeff
