light poster
so posting has been kind of sparse the last few days. is that because I have been really busy or because after 77 brief essays I have already mined my life for every possible nugget of interest? I hope not the latter, but I would have difficulty arguing the former seeing as I had enough free time last night to watch part of under the tuscan sun on tv.
quite frankly, that is one of the worst movies I have ever seen. I think I almost vomited a few times, I am not joking, it was that repugnant. as I mentioned to mila, there is only one possible positive aspect to having sat through even 5 minutes of that hollywood euroshlock. now when I see a quality film after having seen nothing but quality films for the past month and I ask myself "I am so jaded, is this movie even good?" I will be able to answer with certainty "yes, just be thankful that diane lane is not in it."

Rosie was also watching Under the Tuscan Sun at the same time as you. But she thought it was OK! What was she thinking? I saw it when it was in theatres (misguided, but still, only at a rep cinema) and I agreed with your assessment. DL is very wooden.
In other news, yasemin, rosie and I found an apartment in Montreal, and I am afraid to say that Yas and I will each have a study. I will no longer be able to hold up my head in your company. . .
twins! living together, loving each other!
okay two things,
first, bronwen I cannot believe you made fun of our suburban sprawl.
second, everyone fyi what mila posted are in fact the lyrics to a song she sang the entire time we were making dinner. as if that explains it.
