Sometimes I love remakes.

[wednes]

Watched the 1997 version of 12 Angry Men tonight after discussing it briefly with someone at film_classics . I also enjoyed the VanSant/Vince Vaughn version of Psycho a few nights ago. That is a fun film right there.
Speaking of films, TCM was not bad. It was plenty disturbing, suspenseful and GORY. In fact, it was a disturbing, tense bloodbath akin to...well...House of 1,000 Corpses. Not what I'd call superior filmaking, but does some thing very well. And R Lee Ermy...WTF?!?!?

You will be happy to learn that my copy of Zombie Survival Guide by Mel Brook's Son has finally arrived. I had to special order it from WaldenBooks in the mall and it took 2 days. So they are swank, and I'm picking it up tomorrow. Hopefully I'll be able to use the new information to update my Ann Arbor zombie map.
Preparedness, thy name is wednes !!!


I adopted a cute lil' dragon fetus
from Fetusmart! Hooray fetus!

I haven't been posting much in the way of quizzes, but I couldn't resist having my own fetus, barren loser that I am! I've been looking online for wedding dresses and places who make custom rings. Just getting a sense of things has been quite the ordeal. Everything I like is super expensive. I hadn't really thought of spending $500 on a one occasion dress. I just want a simple, flattering gown and a nice small cerimony and reception where everyone gets enough to eat and has fun and is comfortable. How hard could that be?

Going to see Kill Bill2 tonight at 11:30.
Should arrive home in the mood for kung-fu fighting.

H's sister Honore (or She-H, H-lette etc.) is coming to stay with us for 10 days. She'll be here on Saturday. Aside from the mall, what are cool things to do with a girl who doesn't like clubs around here?

Hey! I just realized something: you didn't get a chance to friend my friend monkeyhumpingvw I mentioned him before, he's a real-life friend. I've known him for, like, ten years. He's got two entries but still, he'll probably have more. :)

Did I miss things? What's this thing with wedding dresses? Where did I go?

We aren't officially enganged" but we are moving in that direction. so I've been checking things out.

awww!
have you tried looking on ebay for a dress? it's *full* of new wedding gowns at very cheap prices (then you can have it altered to fit ya' perfectly). there are even places in the area where you can rent a designer gown for the occasion... no buying required! :-D

if some man is crazy enough to ever marry me, i want this dress.... just not in a size 4.... i'd never fit into that a a million-bajjilion years

Pillow fights?

[itches]

Well do you have a better plan?!

We;re going to a kite flying thing on the 25th. I imagine we'll see a film or two at the madstone and maybe pack a picnic lunch for a trip to the arborteum. and Pinball pete's of course. i just thought I might be forgetting something cool.

Pillow fights are cool :(

walking around downtown checking out all the little shops and cafes and shit.

Yeah, I'm sure H and the H-ette will do that.

Ack! That burly, virile H is gonna marry you away from me~! :c)

Also, "12 Angry Men" is one of my favorite movies ever. Actually, it's one of only two non-comedies that I would consider any kind of favorite. And I do mean, of course, the black and white Henry Fonda version. I find it gripping every time. Haven't seen it in a good while, though.

When searching through my journal looking for something from the beginning of last year, I found my thoughts on the remake of said movie, and that was just 2 or 3 days, so I was amused that you're mentioning it now.

So your mood is "amused" then is it?

Well, glad I am sooo damn amusing.

Okay, that came out all wrong, because I am in a piss poor mood today.
