Saw this film this afternoon.... fucking amazing. Even though i knew what would happen in the end, i still cried. Surprisingly, i also laughed at bits of it. I wasn't expecting that.



If you're interested, go see it before it goes away. Myself, (e:Uncutsaniflush) and 2 older people (the man said "that was shit" when the credits started rolling... i wonder what he was expecting?) were the only ones in the theatre. I don't expect it to be around for very long.

For anyone that is interested, Joy Division themselves...

Damn, that man is so hard to buy for....

It would be difficult enough if there was just the one holiday. But his birthday is January 7th, so i have always purchased 2 gifts during the holiday shopping season, since the shops are usually so picked over after x-mas.

Since i know he doesn't read this, i can say that we got him an x-mas gift already. A page a day calendar that counts down the day Bush leaves office... oh, how he will love love love that.

But what to get him for his birthday? We probably won't be able to see him because of mine and (e:Uncutsaniflush)'s work schedules... so i need to be able to send it or have it delivered.

How can the internet have run out of ideas for him!! How??!!

What to buy for the man that spends the majority of his time working for his own business or parked in front of the t.v. smoking weed?

I have already done junk food baskets and t.v. guides for him for soOOoo many years. Besides, he has high cholesterol now... so no more cheesecake of the month idea....

Oh, Daddy... i love you... but... what to get you for your birthday can be such a challenge!!!!

I don't actually have my own mutt... so Ava will have to do. They posted the pics i sent in of her.. tee hee hee...

Poor (e:Uncutsaniflush) had to work on his birthday. The only good thing about it was that i have baked him a cake as a surprise when he gets home from work. Hope to hear from him soon letting me know he is on his way home...

Happy Birthday, my wonderful husband. I love you. You rock.

I changed my user sound. To my favie xmas song. It used to be Kate Bush's December Will Be Magic Again, but since i heard it for the first time last year, it is now the Hippo Song... i just LOVE it. Thanks, (e:Uncutsaniflush) for finding and downloading it for me!

While looking at stuff online, i came across a few things i thought were amusing, but not for anyone on my list. Thought i would share....

It's funny what people will do in cars when they don't think people can see them. Standing at the corner of Elmwood and Delavan waiting for the bus to work today around 1.30pm, it was interesting to see the variety of things people were doing in their vehicles while waiting for the light to change.

A lot of men were picking their noses. Not a sly little "i need to get rid of this booger" pick, but full blown arm all the way up there. Some are even on their phones at the same time. I wonder if the person on the other end knew they were...

Quite a few women were grooming themselves. A lot of hair fixing, mostly, but the occasional makeup. Most surprising was the woman brushing her teeth while on the phone.

There were few readers. A lot of radio/music changers. Some even doing the now old school cds... maybe some ipods, too, but i couldn't tell them from radios if they were docked.

I was disappointed to see as many SUV drivers on phones... not that i am all high and mighty, but it sure does fit the stereotype, doesn't it? I supressed my urge to scream "HANG UP AND DRIVE ASSHAT!" by a thread. Who has PMS? Not me!

I saw a lot of inconsideration, too. People trying to make it through the light and ended up on a red in the middle of the intersection so the vehicles on Delavan trying to cross Elmwood had to wait for the next light.

I wonder what my next bus wait will produce....
