i am really tired, but i am also full of anxiety, and lying down in bed seems to make it worse. i tried reading but i couldn't concentrate.

so, it's either watch the movie, or make spaghetti.

tomorrow

1) It's three hours long.
2) It will not make you less anxious.

spaghetti sounds too strenuous, though.

i'll just eat some hoummous.

it's really good though

At first it is hard to believe that it is the same dude who did CHOPPER but afterwards it all makes sense.

3:10 to yuma is kind of mediocre

It looks nice and the first two-thirds is pretty dynamic but there's really not much there there. The resolution is a damp squib. Typical Hollywood flick with family values and yada yada.

You can tell it was shot in Mexico by the sky.

it is about 3:10 A.M.
that means it should be finished by around 6 A.M. when the sun should be rising and i can sleep in peace.

i'm going to start it in five minutes.

yeah do that

I doubt anything amazing will happen on the board and if it does you can read it tomorrow anyway. Two brief thoughts on this movie: I have never seen Paul Schneider in anything else but I thought he was great in this. "Poetry don't work on whores." Also I mistook Sam Shepard for L.Q. Jones.

Today is the day (night) that I will finish watching this fine film!

The first 23 minutes were really good.
