I woke up this morning to an important realization. On some level, I am anticipating, even expecting another release at the end of the year of a Lord of the Rings movie. Why has this become so subliminalized in only three years, that I am looking forward to something that won't happen? I need a life change or something. Sheesh.
I sat with Drie and watched 'Singing in the Rain' from start to finish last night for the first time since 1975. I saw it on the 'Channel 5 Big Money Movie' while at my Grandma's and Grandpa's house the summer my sister was born. Some strange old feelings came up while I sat there taking it in, I remembered things like sandboxes and sandwiches, ironing boards and things on the coffee table. I found myself laughing out loud at the scenes at the preview of 'The Duelling Cavlier' as it rolled through its madcap technical difficulties and ridiculous dialogue. Laughing just like when I was a kid. It was fun.
Other observations? Not really. It's another Friday at the Alternative, and we're just running around trying to keep the chaos at a dull roar. It's a life, for sure.
