SICK AS A DAWG

I've been quite sick for 2 days now. Hopefully after all this rest I've been getting I will feel A+ tomorrow morning and get back to living life.

So last week I saw the movie "I Love You Man" with one nerd, one biker, and one archaeologist. With my chocolate frappe in hand from JP Licks I settled down to watch this flick. The theatre was packed! The characters were whack! First off there were definitely some funny moments and aspects of the movie such as having a character named "Tevin" and grown men imitating the band Rush. But like I don't know! Sure I laughed a lot, but I also laughed just as much when my boyfriend complained about the focus of the flick and ended up delaying it for one whole minute. It's easy to laugh at a movie, but it's hard to create noteworthy repeatable laughs that movies like "Stepbrothers" and "Home Alone" add to my daily life. It's just like okay another "easy listening" movie where I didn't really mind if it ended early or not. I could have slept that night like a bug in a rug had I missed the "edge of my seat" ending. Ugh. No suspense, no character connection, no nothing. I mean sure you can have the incredible hulk in a movie and maybe get a laugh out of that, but you shouldn't have to depend on such weighted additions to a movie. That's just what I'm saying.

"Space... the final frontier"

Thursday night I went with Keara, AJ, and Zac to see "Star Trek." When I think of the television series I think of the only thing I had to watch when being sick at my Grandma's house; I see a bald guy that looks like Daddy Warbucks from "Annie" in a futuristic outfit and by futuristic I mean like not really at all; I think of nerds and bad special effects; I think of a show that took up at least two channels during daytime TV. I hate Star Trek.

Wait is this the same actor? Someone let me know!

I loved Star Trek the movie (I'm sure there's a more specific title to go by, but I just don't care to look it up.)- thus proving the movie as a complete failure and deprivation to its loyal fans. I did see these fans losing their mind during the flick through the actions of wheezing, snorting, chuckling, eating, clapping, sitting on the edge of their seats, etc. But I don't know? It seems like the people in it were way too good looking to be space nerdz. If I want to be interested in the technicalities of space shipping and other galaxies I'm going to need some nerdy looking actors to fill me in about it because I cannot take these pretty people seriously...at all. I think I just liked it because of the foreign accents of the Russian boy and Scotty- everyone loves a funny accent, right? The fact of the matter is I didn't get confused once and I knew absolutely nothing about Star Trek. But I guess that's how you reel in the gen-pop community, nerds only buy so many tickets...and they usually go alone, so you can forget that whole idea that when boys are interested in a movie they can persuade their girlfriends to go- which increases ticket sales because these boys don't have anyone to bring but their nerdy comrades. So the poor writers had no choice but to sellout and make a movie that would appeal to even to most uninterested girls like myself. It worked. Congrats you got us all...well maybe just me.

Is this even funny? I think it is. But I think I'm aware it's not.

VACATION ALL I EVER WANTED

Today I had my last physical in pediatrics. I will miss the fish tank, blocks, and teddy bear all over print smocks.

I haven't grown at all since junior year of high school, thanks coffee. THIS IS HOW IT FEELS:

Last night I saw Alkaline Trio and Saves the Day. Here comes the h@t!ng!

Saves the Day- By far the worst set I've ever seen them play. I have seen them at least six times over the course of eight years; I feel like I am qualified to criticize . Songs were played from old to new. Mostly new though and everyone knows what a flop In Reverie was. The problem was that even the old hits that most people love were sung slowly and in a much different tone than usual. This town and this pace can be heard when listening to just about any song on "In Reverie." Yes somehow they even managed to ruin the hits. I must say Chris Connely has cleaned up much more than the last time I saw him and at least his hair is no longer pink. I still would pay to see them again in hopes of a comeback.

Alkaline Trio made me tap my foot and sing along. So that's something. Radio was ill live. I have never seen them before so I have nothing to compare last night to. What I can say is they are definitely a band that sounds just like they do on their album. Unlike Fall Out Boy both singers of ALK 3 can actually sing their parts live without sounding similar to a dying ferret.
Would pay to see them again. OH AND new songs were played and sounded catchy. So that's a plus (in my eyes).
