Movies

I saw two movies last weekend, bringing my total to three movies seen in the theater in just outside of one week. Which is strange because I only saw two movies in the theater in the preceding 6 months. Anyway, I saw Disturbia on Saturday night and In the Land of Women on Sunday. In the Land of Women was not great, mainly because Meg Ryan is very disturbing. She is not aging well, quite possibly mostly because of what she has done to her face and especially her lips. She is freaky looking. And the story wasn't exactly thrilling either. I totally tried to find a picture of Meg Ryan looking appropriately weird to link to, but I couldn't find anything recent and close.
I quite enjoyed Disturbia though. I liked Shia LaBoeuf in Even Stevens and he was great in Holes, but it was really strange to see him beat the crap out of David Morse. Although I think David Morse deserved it because he was in a truly terrible, far too long and annoying arc on House this season. Anyway, the movie wasn't shocking or anything because they don't keep you in suspense as to whether the bad guy is really the bad guy or not.

I'm a little sad, but

I remain hopeful that someone out there caught the significance of the title of my last post. If you didn't get then it's really not funny if I have to explain it. But it amused me at the time. Actually, I'm lying. It still amuses me. Although to be fair, I am really easily amused.

The Secret of the Ooze

I love a good trashy movie, so I went to see Grindhouse on Friday. I really liked it. All the spurting blood in 50 trashy movies doesn't bother me, but I am such a girl about oozing pus. There were a lot of things oozing pus in the first half. Ooze and pus are words that just sound gross. When we were kids and Dave got hit in the face with a baseball, his lip oozed for a few days and he had to carry a bowl around under his chin. Now I bet you're a little disgusted and possibly a little fascinated. That's how I feel about it. I think it's nasty, but I have a hard time looking away.

Glasses?

I've been having trouble with my eyes since Sunday morning, so I went to the eye doctor this morning and got some steroid drops. I'm looking forward to my eyes not burning sometime soon. Last night, since I knew my contacts weren't helping matters, I went to LensCrafters and had Jennie meet me there to help pick out some glasses. So today when I went to the eye doctor I got my prescription from her and now I am wearing glasses (with the right prescription) for the first time in about 11 years. It's very strange. But I think I like them so far. I then proceeded to the pharmacy where I spent $90 on two bottles of eye drops. The eye doctor apparently was not just making conversation when she asked me if I had good insurance. I'm sure you're on the edge of your seat now. Back to work...

Hair-raising

I've been able to really tell that my hair is finally getting longer because lately it's been quite windy and I keep shutting my hair in the car door when I'm getting in. I've done it three times today alone. It is excessively windy today, though. And when I got up this morning my power was out, so I showered by candlelight. A couple minutes after I got out of the shower, the power came back on. Which I appreciated, because if it hadn't, my plan was to take my hair dryer to work and dry my hair there. I am so professional.

Dave and Rachel's survey! You guys are awesome!

We have intentionally left some numbers out, just so you will feel as though this is a legitimate quiz.

head and shoulders

I have had a headache every day since last Sunday, with varying degrees of intensity. It is very uncool. Thursday brought me a textbook migraine, complete with aura, blinding pain, and incredible nausea. Last week I thought it was because I was really stressed about some work stuff, but I'm not anymore and yet the headaches continue. I'm almost out of Imitrex pills. The bad thing about being prone to migraines (or rather, a bad thing, other than the pain) is that even a regular headache will freak you out because you worry that it's the beginning of a migraine and you get all tense and give yourself a migraine. Because you're thinking, not today, I don't have time for that today, then you do it to yourself. Or at least, that's how I feel. And I tense up my neck and shoulders and jaw so that I give myself a crick in my neck and some pain when I eat. Maybe this all just me. Maybe other people don't do that. I'm having trouble remembering how to function in spite of the pain. I know I used to do it all the time, before I started taking massive amounts of narcotics and Valium. By the way, May will mark 2 years since I have taken any narcotics or Valium. Although I do still take a little Flexeril from time to time for my neck and/or jaw. But I only take one, rather than taking two to three times my recommended dosage each day. So yay me. But I wish this one would go away. I was doing really well off all my preventive meds until now. I don't want to have to go back on them.
