getting late

[fflo]

Why am up still up. I'm falling asleep sitting.

Saw Blood Simple with shmizla tonight. Had my own mystery watching it: how I could have forgotten so much of the movie. If I was in an altered state the first time I watched (on video not so terribly long ago), that might explain my lack of retention---but then how would I have known that it was a great movie? Its greatness is all about following things in a way the out-of-it-synaptically surely couldn't. All I could remember was the dramatic noir-y ending. Boy, it's a nice little film. I didn't see it for the longest time cuz I thought it would be really horribly violent---and that maybe I'd be really bothered by it. The truth is that I wasn't all that taken with Raising Arizona when it first came out. It wasn't until later---maybe even Fargo (I'm having trouble remembering the order of their movies)---that I really got into the Bros.

We saw Scoop afterwards. I liked it again. Good night of movie watching. And very glad to have my buddy back in town for a while.

Answered an e-mail answer a few minutes ago. I so don't know what's going on. "What's going on?" asked Marvin Gaye, in consideration of much deeper, but less confusing, matters.

The heat broke today. Alleloo.

they were both indeed very good, in their different ways.

it's nice how marvin put it so well: whatsgoingon whatsgoingon whatsgoingon whatsgoing on... makes more sense to hear it repeated so many times as it appears that someone else isn't getting the point that there's nothing to say either.

That's a weird coincidence!

I just got it in the mail from Netflix today. I'm watching it tonight, so mil gracias for not revealing the hook.
