sour

As weekends go, this was weak.

Today was marginally better than yesterday, but it still sucked. Saw Snatch, which was amusing but very much like Lock Stock and 2 Smoking barrels. Maybe a little too much so. Listened to the commentaries, Guy Ritchie is kinda an asshole. Watched Scandal. John Hurt was extremely unappealing, and I didn't feel all that bad when he got his comeuppance in the end. It's all well and good to play with fire, but when you get burned... what do you expect? War of the Worlds was the most entertaining film of the weekend. Chilling at times, yet the sugary ending didn't spoil the whole experience for me. It had a lot of disturbing things to say about people: The innate likeability of humanity shrinks as the number of them grow.

Guess the week's about to start soon.

I'm going to enjoy it even if it kills me.

sorry to hear about the suckage. for what it's worth, i understand that snatch *is* lock stock and two smoking barrels, just remade maybe even by the same people but with a bigger budget. i could be wrong. this is just what i remember.

life should be better to you!

Sorry for the deleted comment. I should not speed read first thing in the morning :) Seriously though, I hope you feel better soon. If you hate the job then get out. That weight is probably bringing you down as much as anything!
