"he was taking prozac... apparently it didn't work."

so ethan embry's character's remarks were the best part of that movie. that and oh my god that chick has a long neck...

so the results of movie day: met up with jess at one, got me another pair of jeans at dillard's (they were on sale), and got... non-lunch. i don't think i'm eating lunch anymore. but that's another post. so there it was, 1:50, and no one to be found. kyle said he was going to the movie with us and maybe bringing daivd, but we didn't see them, and they didn't come into the movie. hope they didn't come and look for us... so anyway we saw "they", and it was, um, lacking. i mean i like creepy weird shit like that but it had nothing. it was lifeless. i could probably take that script and whip it into a kick ass movie, but alas they didn't have me write the script. so yeah i was pretty much only going to see what kind of characters and plot and such was in it... and it did make me think of some things... but the ending totally sucked. not as bad as A.I. sucked, but close. and ethan embry's character was worth it. and now he's gonna be on dragnet... such a far throw out from freakylinks (3rd greatest show in the world to be cancelled). ah freakylinks, how i miss the freakyness. so as for "they": some people say it sucks, and i don't totally disagree with them, but i still liked parts of it because i was looking forward to it. so if you want to see it, go see it, but don't blame me if you think it sucks.

after laughing about that movie, we went and saw "8 crazy nights". priceless. absolutely priceless. surprisingly funny and great. i don't think anybody in the audience was laughing as much as we were... but the laughter was genuine. if you want to go see a good movie, go see 8 crazy nights. i'd even pay to see it again, and i'm a cheap ass so that tells you it's good.

ah movie day. well it got me out of the house and got me to blow $50, but i got a pair of jeans and some nice laughter out of it. this gets me ready for StarTrek X (or StarTrek Nemesis for those who prefer) on dec. 13. and then, what we've all been waiting for... The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers on dec. 18. i just finished reading The Two Towers last weekend, so i'm ready for it.

so i'm tired now. and it's barely 7:30. ah i've been listening to the new cd all day, and it's still wonderful. now i have 3 cds that are pretty much the same except for a couple of songs on each cd, and i love every single one of them. i couldn't just have the epic release of WHTA, i had to have the indie release of it too (and it is really exceptional... but then i'm biased). and i couldn't just have those two, i had to have the live cd too, and since their live shows always kick major ass the cd kicks major ass. it makes me so happy that they've had sold-out shows for (i think) the whole tour. that's why my cousin couldn't get me the live cd in LA... they sold out the roxy. i don't know it's just weird... it's like i have some personal tie to them, and that is definitely something that i don't feel with any other band i listen to. with the other bands it's just for music, for music to alter my moods (i think music does for me what drugs do for others). but with flickerstick it's more... on the level of my soul. the very first time i heard them play "direct line" on BOTR... it was like time stopped. i started shaking, and all i could hear was the music and brandin's voice. brandin's voice just cut right through my soul, and from that moment on i was hooked. i think some of my best emotional experiences have happened in the presence of a flickerstick song. no matter what i'm going through, or what condition my soul is in ("HOW IS YOUR SOUL?"), listening to flickerstick always makes it better... at least for an hour or so (enough for 13 tracks). so on the question of why i like flickerstick so much... that's why. damn just thinking about it... i could write some epic poetry right now, in the state i'm in.

i think i shall.

i haven't cried at all today... maybe things are looking up
