Lighting a fire

Posted on | July 26, 2005 | 5 Comments

Friday night – 8:30 p.m. – bring booze and a snack – we are watching Constantine and eating fondue. It makes sense, really it does. Hell. Fire. Fondue! So, come one, come all.

We watched Frida last night. I caught bits of it on one of the indie film channels, but I wanted to see the whole thing. I loved this film. Salma Hayek playes the tortured artist with grace and depth. The whole cast is quite well done, although I thought Ashley Judd trying to play with an Italian accent was a little hard to swallow. The struggle between Frida and her husband Deigo Rivera played out with both tenderness and bitterness. I don’t think I finished the film understanding why she put up with his philandering ways (although she was just promiscuous). I am interested in reading her biography and finding out more about her. I think I will take a short jaunt down to Winter Park to check out the bio and see if it’s worthwhile.

In other news. They fixed our drain last night. The kitchen drain broke on Saturday afternoon, so we couldn’t use the kitchen sink. It was problematic, but we made it through. It was nice to be able to use the sink properly again.
I’m almost done with Psychonauts. This last level is making me tear my hair out! And I think they fukt me on the save system, which could lead to my blowing up the PS2, but we will see if it’s as bad as I think it is.
My surgery is a week from Friday. Joy.
Mom flies in on the 3rd. She leaves on the 10th. Seven days of Momma’s love…happiness. =)
I ran this morning and got a wicked blister that tore open. It’s mighty painful. So, today at work I am wearing socks and flip flops (I can’t have anything rubbing on the back of my foot) and I must say that I am mad fashionable. Look at me rockin the sexy socks!! Woo hoo (end caffinated explosion).
