Yes! I am playing the grief card! Again! Oh, but Genevieve, if your birthday kid wants to pick for his week, let me know exactly when it is. I remember it is around Christmas.

Yes! We are all going to THINK! Even though it is December, and FilmiKudhi is having a baby, and Eva and I are in mourning, and just in general life is insane (Genevieve, I’m I remembering right that you are in the midst of a sweep of birthdays?), we are still going to DISCUSS and THINK and STUFF.

Thank goodness, the people decided for me so I didn’t have to decide what to watch or when to watch it. And it’s a nice movie for us to hate on! Let’s talk Vows, and Promises, and True Love, and all those things that ABSOLUTELY TOTALLY EXIST. And also, how believable/unbelievable SRK is as a 25 year old.

Continue readingFriday WatchAlong: What Time, What Movie? I Have Decision Fatigue!!!
Happy Tuesday! I saw Om Shanti Om IN THEATERS last night! It was the weirdest thing, this very esoteric and pretentious film group in Chicago randomly has a reel of it and they showed it in the most esoteric and pretentious way. But whatever, me and my friends hooted and danced along as you are supposed to. And today, I am sleepy.

Happy Monday! Last night I got to help pick out Grandpa’s funeral clothes. Did you know he has to wear pants? Doesn’t that seem kind of silly? In fact, doesn’t all of it seem kind of silly when you think about it? Anyway, today is Monday! No funeral stuff until Thursday! WOO-HOO!!!! And on Wednesday I am supposed to get my much much MUCH delayed couch!

Happy Saturday! We got through family Thanksgiving, and then second Thanksgiving, and now all I have to do is go get a massage (scheduled a month ago, because I am smart) and then have a friend over to help put up my tree and eat leftover pie. SO MUCH PIE.
