the rest of my new year’s pictures are now up on eloise. so you can go check them out. and i spent beaucoups amount of time on the phone yesterday with gene wherein i was most definitely not ooey gooey listening to the mellifluous and refusing to allow him to get back to his funner activities. in point of fact i had to wait like half hour for him to call me back when i first contacted him when he was busy being a host. sigh. (don’t make sad face, gene! i’m not complaining, i really didn’t care. =) uhhh yeah so i got neck cricks yesterday attempting to learn how to upload pictures myself directly to eloise and when that failed i got inducted into fun computer nerd realm where gene told me what to type in creepy black screen with the weird words and the symbols and i sent pictures thru the ether (who knows how *that* works) to CH for him to get to and put up for me. so cool! i felt, briefly, like a hacker. with absolutely, mind you, no idea what i was hacking or how i was doing it. prompt! hash! mput! hmmm don’t laugh. i know i wasn’t actually haxoring. you know how i can tell? i can’t even write 4aXor correctly. i am in fact merely a sad loser whose brief brush with glory and fame on the start: run: command menu of ms dos prompt (old skool) created delusions of grandeur with johnny lee miller/angelina jolie epic showdown type action. ha ha ha! supposedly *real* hackers hate that movie. jacob told me that once. than again, other than all the cool things i know of that jacob has done, i’ve never really thought of him as a hacker. and those things, secret things, which he has done…dunno if those really count. maybe jacob is a fraud like me? j/k jacob. i’m sure you’re the og gangsta of the underground code world.

sooooo i’ve been wondering. which as you can tell, takes up all my time and makes it impossible for me to create actual posts cause the brain is too busy being with the thinking instead of the type-gushing. you know how i’ve got all these weird idiosyncratic paranoias about posting? the whole counter thing? and the irritation at sean’s blog being funnier than mine? and the possibility of kristen appreciating someone else’s blog and finding it more interesting than mine? right well. ok. due to the fact that locust is still on a different fucking time zone, i’ve almost gotten over the counter thing. and due to kristen ego-pumping me today i know that i am the bestest funniest cutest thing ever. and so my issue now is: if sean’s blog was funniest cause it didn’t have all the in-jokes and it was updated so infrequently–now that he updates all the time and has more in-jokes and i have been a lousy updater with, uh, still primarily texts composed of in-jokes–could it be true that now i am funnier than sean? was that question in itself really funny? oh ho ho ho ho, i think it was. goddammit. sean is still way funnier than me. and i hate that counter! and kristen is full of ego boosting manure! huff huff huff.

i’m working on the pictures from the dinner party, more from new year’s, and sat night at 26 mix. don’t mind me. i collapsed from exhaustion after taking marina to the airport and so i didn’t really manage to upload more pretty fun pictures. and anyway, most of you saw them yesterday. so whatever. in the meantime, here is a picture of a certain miss lindsay baynes which i received today (btw she will be visiting this month, bf in tow.) tagline is: “oops. we’re getting behind. someone down here better start popping them out daaammmn quick.”

ok so i know gene wants to compile these all in one place…but i’m not sure how else to get them from me to you gene. so i’m putting them here and you can either snag them from here….or…..bring a zip disk and we can try to download my scans or something. i can’t email them because the file would be too big for my puny little email to handle and sooooo anyway…i’m just putting them up here….for now…whatevs yo.

they’re not in any particular order, and they’re only half-assedly labeled. and there’s also another half roll of them that i’m going to have later. plus nuala’s pictures…maybe she’ll give me some of those bad boys. =)

ha! little bow wow! ah shit dood. i think this is worth watching just for the commentary featuring the director, “bow”, and jonathan lipsinisskkkiiiwheee.

otherwise, it’s just Bad. not even good bad really.

lot of kids who can’t really act. lots of pro basketball players who can’t really act.

cheesy ending. SUPER cheesy with the added addition of 2 for 1 special orphan adoption.

bad writing. stupid direction. no interesting filming techniques. too much basketball games.

why did i watch this? why not i say. and also i blame it on marina. though…it was admittedly me who said, “let’s see like mike! hwee!” and her that said, “ah man.”

maid in manhattan and two weeks notice

Categories: Movie Reviews

these two movies were practically the same movie which is why they are getting the same entry.

1) both set in manhattan

2) both with a really rich guy and a (relatively) poor woman

3) both women with “causes”

4) both movies featuring norah jones music (though two weeks notice actually had her cameoing)

5) both cheesy romances with really no redeeming qualities.

honestly i liked main in manhattan slightly more. it actually had more of a plot. sad, huh? and i don’t even really like jlo whereas i do like sandra bullock. heh.

so these movies primarily sucked based on the fact that they were kind of degrading to women. though 2 weeks was also not very shining the light positive on men either when the example was just hugh grant’s character (and his driver was pretty shitty too. being all with the speech about knowing how to work the women but then revealing that he still lived at home and was under his momma’s thumb). maid was a little better since jlo’s portrayal of a single mother was actually pretty good and her ability to cut ralph fiennes down on some racial issues was well delivered. and she had a job and was getting a promotion and kept and expanded the job even after marrying the rich guy so that was a little bit better at showing a positive role model i guess. 2 weeks on the other hand, even though bullock’s character went to harvard law, she constantly needed saving. there’s this one scene where she has to go to the bathroom (it’s dumb, disgusting, and unnecessary) and he carries her to this mobile home (they’re on the freeway) and convinces its occupants to let her use it. and then they lose thier car and he has to call for a helicopter to come pick them up.

the one thing i did like about 2 weeks (and this totally just makes me a romantic) was this one scene where they’re in a restaurant and first hugh grant spoons all the ice out of his water and into her cup, then she takes all the wierd crunchy stuff off the top of his salad and puts it on hers and he takes all the radishes off her salad and puts them on his. they do all of this without even thinking about it. it’s just something that has become ingrained because of how close they have become and it’s adorable. and it’s perfect. the timing is right on. and at the end her going, “radish! radish!” cause there’s one left on the plate and him removing it for her is just so cute. oh man.

the one last thing that is the same about the movies is that it’s the man who has to change for the woman. at the end of both, the men have screwed up thier chances for love (ralph fiennes for not accepting the maid when it’s revealed that she isn’t some high class society dame and hugh grant for going back on a promise not to destroy this landmark building) and the men have to find the woman again and grovel and be re-accepted. which….is all well and good i guess. except for how it’s so unlikely and also so trite. what, it’s always that the woman has some convictions or something and the man has to alter his perception of things to fall in line? or it just doesn’t really show either party to be realistic or well-adjusted. why doesn’t the guy just find some woman who hasn’t lied to him about their status in society or some other woman who isn’t so quirky and demanding? why don’t the women find men who automatically accept them no matter what or who don’t back out of promises or forget about trust?

romantic comedy, yes. fun, yes. good morals? noooooooo.

rentals. both of them. really.

so not once. NOT ONCE did i use the bathroom in the frat house. of this fact i am inordinately pleased. you have no idea. even though admittedly brian did clean the bathroom like a mofo and it looked hella better than the other time i spent time in the fratty frat, but still. frat pisser. not something i wanted to step into willingly. possibly now you are asking, “well michele if you didn’t use the bathroom, where did you go?” but the thing is see that i didn’t go at all. which comes, i think, from not drinking anything. and that is probably enough information about the michele bowel movements.

that party was really fun! i was kind of surprised honestly. considering how irritated i was both before the party and then at the beginning of the party with all the fucking wierdos that were there. but then things evened out. and i was like, hey naked hippies, all right. how ya doing, you goth people? ah, people with no fashion sense, what’s up? it was like a bizarre mix that actually worked due in large part, perhaps, to the complete non-intermingling of groups. fascinating.

i actually took a shitload of pictures. but not with a digital camera, (gene), so i can’t send them for eloise. and i am not at home (more sad for me) so i can’t scan the ones i did take yet. but i will. oh yes. and then you can all see them. whether they are on eloise or here or both or something.

speaking of me being not at home. being at work FUCKING SUCKS. not only am i a)sick but b)i left marina at home alone and c)i’m tired! whine whine! shiiiiiit. and i have to be here tomorrow too?! suckity SUCKING.

heh. bah.

brian: thank you soooo SOOOOO much for letting us have the party there! you are so great! and i cannot believe i forgot to ask yesterday when i talked to you if you needed help cleaning up. i hope it wasn’t too messy and everything was fine and umm yeah.

and thanks to gene too for the bonfire idea, which was fucking super sweet. and handling the music and making sure things ran smoothly. thank you thank you!

and thank you to everbody else for drinking the noxiousness and eating the fruit. in one fell swoop i cut my liquor collection in half there. hell yeah. good on me.

oh and thank you to erica, marina, kim, nuala, kristen, brian, and jason who i kissed at midnight because in one feel swoop you increased my kissing experience (able to count on one finger) by 7 (able to count on two hands!). even though, yeah it didn’t really count. and doesn’t seriously make me eligible for the incest court. which is fine since i worked really hard at never getting on that thing in high school and wouldn’t particularly want to slip up now. =P
