... are going to come back to you one by one.
Anyone that knows me knows that I'm a sucker for movies featuring great "father/daughter" moments. Such as Father of the Bride which is what I'm watching right now, it's on TBS. You have to give it to TBS for putting both movies back to back. Rawk. This is my lazy Sunday. I love Sundays. They are for sleeping in and pancakes. I'm having pancakes for supper.
When I get married, IF I get married, the moment I look forward to the most is the father/daughter dance. When I was at Michelle & Ramon's wedding, I bawled during that moment. I don't really know why. I would like to have a real wedding, but I guess whatever happens, happens. It would be sooo easy to just fly to Vegas and have everyone have a grand old time while we just save money because we don't have to feed everyone heh. I don't know why I'm thinking weddings, I think it's just because this movie is on really. The song I'm dancing to with my daddy is a Hawaiian singers version of "Somewhere Over The Rainbow/What A Wonderful World" Yep.
Sing me Spanish techno!
I'm nervous about driving to Minneapolis on Thursday. I hate driving long distances especially when it's by myself. I mean, I've driven to Omaha plenty of times and that's the same distance away, so why am I so worried? I feel like I have SO much to do. I have to clean up my room, clean the house, and clean my car and empty the trunk. I gotta pluck my eyebrows, go to the beauty salon, and go shopping. BLAH. Lots of stuff to do. I'm not going to to worry too much about it though. I'll just do things one at a time. But for now, I'm enjoying my lazy Sunday and you can't make me work on it. :D
Manu Chao has some good music. Good job, Juan. He does good at picking good stoner music.

If you could watch any movie on the big screen right at this moment, what would it be?
Probably Amelie because it's a great movie and it's my favourite. :) That's really just about it. And because I never got a chance to watch it on the theatre, I just watched it on the computer before I got the DVD from Anthony as a gift.
I was told not to come back to work until I feel better. Ugh. I am getting so sick of myself and I'm getting frustrated and annoyed. My back has not been feeling worse, but it has not been feeling much better. I just want to crawl into a hole and die. Or be in my bed and not ever pop my head out of the covers.
Yesterday I watched this movie:
It was great. I really liked it. It has just about all the same actors as Amelie did and that's my favourite movie of all time. And it was just as gorgeous and colourful. I love it. I have owned it for about 2 or 3 months and just watched it for the first time yesterday.
Anyway, if you ever have the chance to check it out, do it. I don't have any neighbours or friends yet on this VOX thing, but it's okay I suppose. I don't feel terrible about it. meh.
More later, I'm sure. I'm lonely and bored most days throughout the day.

Who's your favorite movie villain?
I think I would say that my favourite movie villian is Lex Luthor, of course. No matter what the fucker did, he was always charming. And the key to being a good movie villain is to keep the crowd loving and hating you. Also, how cool is it that he lost all his hair? I think the fact that he's bald and still loves the ladies and the ladies still love him... he's gotta have something going on in the pants. Maybe all the kryptonite that makes Superman so weak makes him super virile. SEXY.
Also, they never really pick good looking men to play him. Not in the original superman movies, not in the new superman movie, and not in smallville. They're not that good looking, but they have a sense of power that is hot. I mean, I'm just saying.
