sniffle sniffle

hello dahlings, how are you on this pre-halloween friday? i'm peeking in ever so quickly to let all y'all know that i haven't run off to las vegas with my new lover! heh. i've been laid to waste by the god of Flu. i've been sick. and i don't mean like how the cool kids are saying it, i mean sick. you know, capital S, capital ICK.
sigh.
that's me, feeling like a rock star. and when i say rock star, i mean keith richards. on a bad day.

send me sweet ecchinacea thoughts, ducklings.
honey dreams and lemon zest wishes.

oh actually, since i'm here anyway, i have to tell you about sick day #1. (i've taken two days off work, and today's gonna be shorter than martin.) i decided to treat myself to a movie, so went to see i [heart] huckabees. existential playfulness, a deep thinker's matinee dream.. i liked it, a lot. without getting into it, the main character hires "existential detectives..." and then i went and rented some movies, and for gawd knows what reason, settled on anna karenina (ah, good ol' tolstoy) and hamlet. HOLY EXISTENTIALISM BATMAN! phew! not for the faint of heart...

anyway, that's my cue. have a very glorious, very fabulous halloween. don't do anything i wouldn't do... (heh)

I <3 Huckabees is a good flick. The absurdity of it all is what makes it so good. It makes fun of itself in a very reasonable way. Playful. And Marky Mark's character cracks me the hell up! Who knew that his busted-ass "Good Vibrations" antics would someday lead to existential humor done well?

Jude Law did pretty well too. But don't tell my girlfriend I said that. She's in love with him and his accent, so I cannot pledge any extra support to his cause.

Get better. And I make no promises concerning Halloween... Whoo-hoo!

hello ducklings. well your cures must have worked, i'm all better! well ok, my cough still sounds like satan's trying to rattle his way out of my lungs, but other than that i feel grrrrreat!

oh, but Craig one thing and i do hate to break it to ya, but i'm betting the accent is the *least* of jude law's charms.. (ahem) ; )
