don't call me junior!!

well i've finished the indiana jones series. thank god. i also gave away 81 minutes of my life watching a documentary. but they were a funny 81 minutes.

indiana jones and the last crusade. better writing than the last one and better action, i thought. i've always loved sean connery, also. i've come to the conclusion that i should've just seen them on the big screen when i was a kid. all in all, a great nazi ass kicking time. grade: b+

word wars. ok, i can't figure what's more sad: being a star in a movie about playing scrabble all day everyday or watching a movie about people who play scrabble alal day everyday? that's rhetorical. this documentary follwed four men over the period about about a year en route to the 2002 national scrabbble championship game in san diego. these men had various intriguing personalities: the egomaniacal, gambling young kid; the maalox chugging middle aged man with chronic gastrointestinal reflux; the "malcolm before mecca" baltimore raised, pot smoking man and the tai chi practicing previous champion. it's really hilarious/scary and anyone who has ever had a dream will appreciate it (and be a little bit disturbed). grade:b+

otherwise, i had a little head clearing about my job woes. the truth is i'm really grateful to have a job. in all honesty, i control how much i want to do and in what priority. i get to sit. i get to goof on the computer at least an hour a day. i'm inside. i don't have to do groups. i get some praise every other quater. i got to buy a car. i get to pay rent and most of my bills (when i remember). i can travel and God knows i get to see whatever movie i'd like. so it's really not all so bad.

i've been having dreams where my mom is in bad circumstances. i think i'm subconsciously processing the bad stuff in the past which is actually great - it's a sign that that crap has moved out of my conscious realm of thought. i actually know that to be true. i'm enjoying my present (mostly) focused thinking.

it's raining men. so i saw this guy on friendster who i thought would be perfect for m. i asked him about writing her and he said sure! my roommate was bummed that on Nerve.com she had to make her profile available in able to write to others. my question: well why are you on the site? i can understand staying anonymous but you know what? you gotta put yourself out there. all i can say for myself is that i know this and thus i am not putting myself out there...not yet.

y'all ain't ready!
