Many happy birthday greetings from Alaska, juliana!!! I hope you have been having a perfect day.
Red Dawn. I adore Red Dawn. I cried every time I saw it. Cried, no, I sobbed. And the Lost Boys. OMG, I'm turning back into a teenager before my very eyes.
My brain is too dead to be able to add much to the 80's movies talk, but my paper (at least the draft that was due today) is done done done!
Yay finished draft!
I am disgusted at my commute and my general life right now, but it is all tied in with the shittiness that is the MBTA.
Jealous of sj. I have a paper to write tonight and NO motivation. Price elasticity...oh boy.
I am in Cleveland. I ate too much at dinner, and now I am lonesome and bored and I dont' want to work tomorrow because this project BITES. BOo.
Happy Birthday, juliana!!!!!!!!!!
Oh, GOD, anyone remember Red Dawn?(The Russians are coming!) First PG-13 movie I ever saw. I thought I was SO FUCKING COOL!
LOVED! I also loved
War Games.
Valley Girl ! Oh my god, I adored that movie. Went out and bought a Plimsouls album, even.
I don't know what it is about it. It's just my perfect love. Now that I'm thinking about the Plimsouls, it probably is the music. I can't believe I called it "Valley Girls" before. I know better.
She's cool. He's hot. She's from the Valley. He's not.
Loved
War Games.
Also
Sixteen Candles
and
The Breakfast Club,
although that may have been because Ally Sheedy was the only celebrity that people ever thought I looked like.
16 Candles, Desperately Seeking Susan, Lost Boys? Loved them all.
Oh yes. And Red Dawn, love.
Dirty Dancing is pretty much watch from the hall from start to finish for me.
Oh yes, and
Desperately Seeking Susan,
which is in a few major feminist film theory articles so I need make no excuses when I rewatch.
