Oscar Shorts - Animated

Of the animated shorts, I liked the one from Ireland best followed by the one from Spain. The one from Canada was the worst followed by the last one, the long one from France.

Next up, live action shorts.

Wedding Day

1
My friend, Kathleen's wedding is today. Some days it's really hard to be happy for others' good fortune when I am still so sad. Even watching tv shows, there are moments when very suddenly my chest feels empty.
The good news is that in the past several days, I have had a lot of opportunity for reflection. I hope that I have learned something from all of this. Growth is good, right? It's easy to see where the term growing pains comes from.


My hope today is that I am able to look beyond my own neediness and be happy for Kathleen and Scott.

Something learned over time

So I had a random thought.

Here's a suggestion for people coming to the end of a relationship. If at all possible, try to avoid breaking up with someone on or around their birthday. And especially at the occasion of their 40th birthday. Sure, it may be unavoidable but like I said, if possible.

Ok. That is all. As you were.



In completely unrelated news, I turned 40 a couple of weeks ago. :)

Nothing about nothing

Well it's been a long time since I wrote anything here. I am just not making the time. As I sit and think about what to talk about, it all seems really futile. A lot has happened but it's kind of old news at this point.

I guess I'll try to get back to the facinating minutia of my everyday life.

I've been a little sick. I left work early on Tuesday and was out today. I hope to be well enough tomorrow to make it in. Friday is a holiday so all the work that needs to get done before the weekend has to be completed tomorrow!

And here's a brief listing of what I'm watching on tv these days.
M - How I Met Your Mother, House, 24, Chuck, Heroes (although God only knows why), Castle.
T - Lost, The Forgotten, The Good Wife.
W - Modern Family, Psych, CSI: NY.
Th - The Office, Survivor, CSI.
F - Smallville.
S - Legend of the Seeker.

I'm also trying to catch up on Mad Men. I'm told I need to watch Caprica.
