I'm so sorry, but if it makes you feel any better, my fun-time-Buffy party night involved watching a robot throw Spike through a window, so if you want to trade... no wait, I wouldn't give up that memory for anything.

I have the soundtrack for that movie: it's quite good. I wonder why I bought it, since I never saw the movie itself. Is it good?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Is it good?

It is. It has an interesting structure (talking heads type PBS documentary intercut with period stuff). Sean Penn is typically transparent and egoless as an actor (playing a character who's boorish and talented). Samantha Morton is incredibly lovable and felt. The period stuff is very cool with "viper" songs (about marijuana) and sidetrips to Hollywood in the 30s. Reminds me a little of Purple Rose.

I think I need the sdtrk.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Am trying to figure out something to do with my parents today, but it looks like kind of a bust. All the museums are either closed or $20, and they want to leave relatively early, so I'm thinking nsm. Ah well.

Bronx Zoo closed too, Jesse?

I think I have Flexeril hangover, but alas, some of the stiffness it's supposed to address is still there. On the other paw, I did some intense yoga on Saturday, so perhaps that's my answer....

On the remaining paw, I have pretty much a free day ahead of me, so I'd better figure out something to do with it myself....

I'm thinking they're not into the zoo, but it's not a bad idea! Especially since we could drive there instead of taking the hour-long subway trip.

Tell them about the gay penguins? It could tip the balance!

My guess is, the cold weather plus their general lack of interest in animals will mean doing something else, but! You remind me that the zoo is something I want to do in the vast quantities of free time I should have this semester.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Morning. I went to bed too early, so I am up too early.

It's a vicious cycle.

I agree, but I also think "to bed too late, up too early" is also pretty vicious.

Is this a holiday for anyone else in Buffistaland?
