the 48 hours begins in 17 hours

the 48 hour film project begins this evening... and i'm scared/excited shitless! let's not think about it. let me instead write a quick review of blades of glory.

BLADES OF GLORY : A-
finally, a movie where the plot and the most memorable scenes, were not destroyed by the relentless previews and teasers leading to and following the premiere. it was a unique storyline, intelligent humor, and great acting all around. it also had a lot of memorable lines... which is what disappointed me about talladega nights. there were also excellent cameo appearances by world renowned figure skaters, which were pleasantly surprising. and i thought there was some nice subtle humor in casting the coach, craig t. nelson, as 'the coach'. how can you go wrong with undertones of sexual ambiguity and incest going on throughout? a dvd purchase definitely awaits.

i'm gonna try to sleep now. but you know that disney vacation commercial, where the little kids are trying to sleep and the parents come in and tell them to go to bed? then the little boy says, '...i'm too excited to sleep!' well, that's how i feel right now.

sounds like you guys will have an absolute blast on this project. i almost feel like there should be 3rd party person videotaping you guys doing this project like a reality show. this way you and everyone else can see all the drama, stress, and excitement over the course of the next 48 hours. it would be a documentary to be seen years from now on how "MIM" started out during its infant filming phase. i wish i could be a part of this great experience. best of luck to you!

planning to go insane

this europe trip has been a logistical nightmare. danny and i took three hours to find an available hostel in amsterdam and dublin . tomorrow, we have to get some accomodations for warsaw , vienna , and prague . thankfully beth is planning the greece portion of the trip. danny and i ate sushi at china palace ... which now serves thai food !?!?! i know, it's a shocker to me too. we then went to barnes and noble to pick up some travel books. while there, danny noticed a nice pair of legs and knee high boots with a short skirt. she was a goth chick, which is not usually something i concern myself with... but goth chicks need love too, and she was a cutie. we then stopped at 4 stores before finding a reasonably priced plug set for european countries. who knew that it would be so hard to find such a thing... during the summer... when everyone goes on vacation... huh?

auf wiedersehen

i wanted to post this on the board at express... but after being gone so long, i realized that now just isn't the time for me to go back there. here's the so long, farewell speech... To my express family – Another chapter in my life is complete. One year and nine months ago, I began at Express probably much like you did… looking for a part-time job where I could have some fun, meet some people and maybe buy a few clothes. Little did I know that it would become so much more. I did buy clothes… shit loads. 1MX shirts in every imaginable color, denim in all 3 fits, and enough polos to clothe a small African country. I even had Aymeei as my addiction consultant, approving various colors and styles based on my known wardrobe. I would've been better had it not been for the damn Express Card people constantly increasing my limit. I've met a lot of people… from our regular customers with never-ending exchanges to the associates who've quit after one overnight floorset. Ther
