Miss Kristen is dropping by for lemon drops, porch sitting and guitar playing (her guitar playing cause I have no musical talents whatsoever). This poster cracks me up. Go read the reasoning behind it. I love all those things too!

Every now and then
I forget to check A Softer World for a while and get to go back and read lots. This I love.
That one too.

Something wrong with me?
I liked His Girl Friday, but didn't love it. I mean there's Cary Grant and witty banter and all but I'm not gushing like I expected. Its all right. 5-ish.

The same moment
The Moment - Margaret Atwood
The moment when, after many years
of hard work and a long voyage
you stand in the centre of your room,
house, half-acre, square mile, island, country,
knowing at last how you got there,
and say, I own this,
is the same moment when the trees unloose
their soft arms from around you,
the birds take back their language,
the cliffs fissure and collapse,
the air moves back from you like a wave
and you can't breathe.
No, they whisper. You own nothing.
You were a visitor, time after time
climbing the hill, planting the flag, proclaiming.
We never belonged to you.
You never found us.
It was always the other way round.

Finally
I lurve Tarantino flicks, so why did it take me so damn long to see Death Proof?
Its the stories of two groups of girls who have run-ins with Stuntman Mike. I loved the Austin setting in the first one - so many of the details were spot on perfect. Julia felt like a bit much at times and Rose McGowan was all kinds of dreadful, but the rest of the casting was good. Vanessa Ferlito is so good as Butterfly.
In the second story, I loved the casting - especially Zoe Bell, the Australian stunt woman, and Tracie Thoms, the stunt driver.

I immediately downloaded the entire soundtrack as well. Its good. I give it a 6.

Missing
My closet is missing the components to do this polished look. And I never even realized it until I stumbled upon this picture!
