"Let's go get the shit kicked out of us for love."
And that, my friends, sums it up. The film rocked my evening. My day, really.
Along with:
A haiku from Indie Rock Boy. The fact that we actually made it from getting drunk and making out in cabs to this snarky friendship (where he's allowed to yell at me for smoking) with minimal awkwardness, stands as one of my bigger accomplishments in the post J, I Am An Idiot Tour of 2003.
This kick ass ring I'm wearing. Yeah, a present to myself. I got all humiliated and hurt and cried myself to sleep yesterday. And when that happens, a girl should just buy herself a present. So, that is precisely what I did. Tomorrow is manicure day. And new boots day. The gifting never ends!
These pajamas. And a hot shower and that I left my towel on the radiator. Warm towel? Don't mind if I do!
A great story about getting splashed by a has-been celebrity. But, that's a story for another time. I'm tired and he wasn't that cute.
Posted by This Fish at November 13, 2003 11:00 PMI didn't know whether to hide my sentimental enjoyment of that movie or not. Glad to see someone who is reputable likes it. Bill Blighy(sp?) who plays the aged, jaded, rock starfiend outdid himself and is worth the price of admission. And the guy with the cue cards...I am ashamed to say, tore me up. Romantic lies at Christmas...are always welcome.
Posted by: Katherine at November 14, 2003 12:19 AMI hope you are feeling better. I think I'm going to have to take myself out to dinner this weekend and/or buy myself some prezzies.
If you were still in town, I would so buy you a drink RIGHT NOW. Or better yet, I'd invite you over to my place to partake of my stash of fancy gin. ;-)
Posted by: Bob at November 14, 2003 01:06 AMJim!! I was thinking you last night, believe it or not. Mostly thinking of that time I got robbed on 14th and we went to McDonald's at midnight. Man, silly kids.
Bobbie, I would love nothing more! Except, maybe having you admit your boyfriend is imaginary. We'll have a drink soon. I need to see more of the Met anyway. Or more gin. :)
Posted by: Fish at November 14, 2003 06:28 AMthat movie was soooo good. it made me cry too. i loved all the characters. none of the storylines seemed pointless. although i wasnt quite getting the naked mock sex lighting people.
i also like how they all were related in some way at the end.
fabulous
love, actually rocked. actually.
i'm really inspired by the "snarky friendship" with IRB. very very impressive.
enjoy the ring! and the impending manicure and boots.
