Strangers on this road we are on….

Books
I haven’t been reading as much as I should be (I’ve actually been working…eeek). I did read, yet another, Emily Giffin book. I’m not so sure why I enjoy her books so much. Baby Proof was just as good as the other two I read. I’m looking forward to reading her brand new one this summer.

Movies
Gosh…I haven’t been to a movie theater in a long time. We rented Into the Wild and I thought it was fantastic. I recently caught Fast Times at Ridgemont High and Max Dugan Returns on HBO. I love these movies. HBO is still showing the same movies they showed twenty-three years ago, sometimes it pisses me off (example Mannequin!!!), but I’m kinda glad about these two. Talk about showing the same movie over and over….the Oxygen channel has been showing Pride and Prejudice at least every other day. And, I’m not ashamed to admit that I have now watched the whole thing or parts of it four times since last Saturday. I love this version. I really should read the book, but I’m afraid it would put me to sleep.

TV
Thank God TBS has been showing episodes of The Office. I can’t wait until the new episodes begin airing. I love this episode, it makes me laugh out loud from start to finish. Not many things do that.

Music
I’m not ashamed to admit that I like Jack White and that I think he’s got some real talent. I’ve been digging The Raconteurs and re-listening to my favorite ditties from his thang with Ms. Loretta Lynn. I’ve never been much of a Kinks fan, but Wes Anderson uses them impeccably. Love this tune almost as much as I love The Darjeeling Limited.

Internets Wanderings
This puts things nicely into perspective. This is beautiful and terrifying. I wish I would’ve done this.
