| In the morning, In the Evening |

one of the best things is slowly waking up in the morning to the sharpness the cold brings and how particularly effective it is to my feet. I could opt for a thicker comforter, but no. Instead i get out of bed, grab a sweater or some barely used towel and use it as a 2nd layer. however only enveloping past my ankles. In effect my feet versus the rest of my body becomes noticeably warmer. I really love the sensation.
I also love skipping meals during the day (well maybe a little something in the afternoon, but hardly anything sustaining) and then that following night, experiencing that sort of fatigue that is specific to the very act. It's so unlike sleeplessness, where every action feels like a pulling up from inside you and behind. Like some tightly woven thin rope but frail as yarn being pulled beyond its extent, from deep inside you, at every step up, reach over and turn. It's fucking awesome.
But then it's time to eat, so you make pasta cause it's all you know, but enough to make you eat feverishly. |

In my teen years i remember clearly being pretty obsessed over motorSports. When the Speed Channel on cable tv didn't suck—i'm assuming they suck now—i would often watch the Touring car races and followed extensively the LE-MAS 24-hour race series when it aired. But the greatest watch was Formula 1. I'm curious of why i stopped following. For it is pretty fascinating, and no, not just because they're fast cars going really really fast.
Great photography on boston.com of the 2009 season of formula 1:

An Irish film with irish bleeding-heart-compassion all over it. Seriously great watch. Dare i say it even makes a great date movie—although, of course, i hate date movies. |

"If we finally manage to achieve something like universal health care, Limbaugh warned, it would mean "the end of America as we know it." He's right, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. This is the end of the world as we've known it. But it isn't the end of the world." |

I understand they're simply defending themselves. That their rational for offense is reasonable and just. But there's an issue with the notion they're fighting terrorism. I believe we live in a time where casualties are no longer viewed as simply a expense of war. Now, more than ever, people aren't simply mourning and asking 'why'. Casualties are the very justification and legitimacy to kill. Besides the horror Terrorism has caused, it's also obvious the ideology has affected our confusion, degree of apathy and tolerance with the very term 'casualties'.
a real catch 22. |

Seven Pounds is yet another film you watch with your center constricted all the way through. I appreciate a relatively major mainstream film that has the sense to let things happen as they should, rather for the sake of the audience. Although it proves to be a bit convoluted, and at some points 'doubtful' to say the least, it's hard not to to be captured by it's direction.
There's always something cool about intangible things described in actual measurements of weight. I find that largely compelling, and strangely—for reasons i'm too stupid to explain—logical.
toward the end, there's this track (maybe the theme), that features these amazing keys, that i can only describe as 'trembling broken notes'. it's so awesomely fluffing wonderful. Music or sounds that exhibit a degree of character besides the very tone they make.
yea see it, if you can, and if not, it's missable. It's nothing really special, but as always, it's good to be reminded of 'good'. |
