ah movies. summer. here we go again

Monday, May 15th, 2006

… so in an attempt to make as much money as possible off a handful of movies we’re always flooded with such quality film during the summer months i figured i’d take a moment to appreciate it.

Poseidon, Omen, M:i:III, Xmen III, Garfield II, Da Vinci Code, Stick It, Just My Luck, The Breakup, Pirates of the Caribbean, Superman Returns, The Devil Wears Prada, Miami Vice, … and the one I’m holding my breath for: Fast and the Furious III.

basically… if you’re not a proven franchise, remake, tween-friendly, pre-hyped with gossip rags, or based off a hugely successful false “code” you’re not worth the time or money to promote. curious why they’re not making any money.

i’ll say baaahhhhhh to Da Vinci, superman, xmen, and breakup cause i love Tom’s hair, dug the latest batman, am a sucker for flicks based off comics, and want aniston’s ass. oh.. and i guess talladega nights. have to respect the ferrell. here’s to hoping they find some quality flicks to fill the 2 screens left in the megacinemas.

2 in a day? you have to be facking kidding me…

So coors (the car) is going odd acoustic places lately with a nice loud repetitive rattle coming from the back end that echos throughout the tiny ass cab. so it gets me thinking about alternative forms of transportation. Bus? Carpool? Walk? Lightrail? Cab? …. fucks no. crazy people; need friends; too lazy; not anywhere near places i need to get to; and too expensive respectively.

so what else? the solution to all my problems? a super power. which one? …. the only one of course:

Teleportation

… and i’m being real. there is no better way of getting around and it is the single best super power possible. i can argue it for days, but it’s usually a quick one. here’s why….

cheap transport. never late. no cost. avoid fights. instant vacations. quick bootycalls. solo. no traffic.

…. other better powers you say? bring it. here are some i thought of that barely stack up.

power to fly: great idea, but slow in comparison. plus you’re that douchebag that’s flying all over the place and that’s just going to bring attention to yourself. that and apparently there’s a mandatory cape involved.

super speed: awesome, but then i’m still running around all the fackin time. never able to wear a suit cause i’d get it all soaked through with swass. i’d be that idiot walking into work with my backsack changing in the 3rd stall. definitely too sans-class for an up and coming big deal like myself.

read minds: mainly doesnt fix my muffler issue, but still noteworthy. doesnt stack up because i don’t want to hear stupid people talk about stupid things so why would i want to hear the shit they havent yet filtered through that part of the brain that justifies an audible action.

super strength: again doesnt fit my circumstances, but comes up often. fuck that. always having dumbasses challenging it. plus i’m still walking and taking a g’damn bus.

… but to top it off. i can do more honorable things in an hour than Superman, Spiderman, and Batman combined without the ridiculous costume. and what distressed damsel wouldnt want to be saved by a short haired champ in jeans and a nice T compared to some dude in tights and a mask (or w/out glasses in the case of that well thought out disguise Super came up with). and that doesnt even take into account my moral flexibility.

The reason for this tangent? X-men drei is about to hit and i have to drop three bills on something just to keep my car quiet. fackin cars.

been awhile

… so i was told to update. and i agree. it’s been too long.

…….. here’s where i’m at:
I have a job… 2 actually. one moving, the other doing design work for a placement firm. have to admit it’s pretty classy to have folk looking for my jobs for me. I get to make money moving furniture and then doing random “portfolio building projects” …. classy. I don’t have much for days off lately… unfortunate, but hopefully I can work out some vacay to hit the Miltown here and there over summer.

Last weekend i went back home…. awesome time. long weekend with a lot of issues that came up, but chilled with folk i havent chilled with in a long ass time and got to talk some things out. thank you kiki, tess, and nut for your sound advice and perspective on the sitch. the fam is a whole other bag of ass that i can deal with later.

as for the other stuff… having girl issues and sick of this shit. i wish i could juss end my dealings with the female gender, but it’s hard to procreate without them.

oh and the drinking….. totally done with the Daily. Over it. so i’m down to go out and such during the week finally like a normal 23 yr old. note to Halster and such to partake in some festivities outside of work.

speaking of work…. do you have any idea how boring it is to tween multiple frames while working on about 3 hrs of sleep? … sucks balls. so here’s to hoping the next contract is something golden i can really sink my metaphorical teeth into.

….. that should be enough of an update. i’ll work on keeping up with this shit later. for right now i’m taking some time off the computer and tv and just dealing with shit as it comes up. my room’s a mess and i havent even made my bed in 3 days. disgusting.

cheers kids. keep your heads up
