When it's over...
I'm on about three hours of sleep here so I can't assume responsibility for anything I say here.
Last night, Ashley and I had Movie Night, Part II, which consisted of "The English Patient," "Garden State," and "Requiem for a Dream" in that order.
Let me just ask, has anyone seen The English Patient? It's almost 3 hours long. And after about the first 2 hours, not much happens. There were a couple really intense moments and Ralph Fiennes and Kristin Scott Thomas had amazing chemistry (as Ashley said, "They've been eye-fucking all night!")
And then after Requiem...let's just say that movie ended with Ash and I curled up in the corner of the couch, in the fetal position, hanging onto each other for dear life. Fuck the whole DARE thing, just say no bullshit. Show them THAT movie and they will never feel the need to get addicted to anything. The hopes and dreams of four ambitious people are shattered when their drug addictions begin spiraling out of control. The movie profoundly and uniquely expresses the destruction that runs rampant in the lives of drug addicts who are so desperate that they'll shoot up in an infected arm. Have you ever seen an infected arm?

It's fucking insane.
I'll never be the same (or do heroin, for that matter. Not that I had the urge to do so in the first place...)
Right now, I'm chilling with Julia who is home from Minnesota for a couple of days. And then...well I have no plans. It's nice to have no plans.
Oh wait, I lied.
I have a date on Saturday!
