Netflix and Friends

I'm very happy with Netflix and I can't believe I lived so long without it. Every single movie I could ever want (almost) is on Netflix, and they have a fast turn around time. Blockbuster is a thing of the past, the market changed, and flew right by them.

I saw The Bicycle Thief this weekend finally and I loved it, there's a bunch of movies on Marty's documentary "My Voyage to Italy," that I'm dying to see, half you can't even find on DVD. The whole first half of the documentary they talk about all these films by Rossellini, one of them I really wanted to see, Paisan, but Netflix does not have it.

Chrissy Liscombe moved back to Fitchburg for Orientation this weekend. It is so weird not doing it for once. The whole timeline of things is messed up, you get used to School two semesters, then summer vacation. Now, I'm on track to work for the rest of my life.

Jason and Gregg are going on internship, Andy is moving to Brookline, and Ben is up in Fitchburgb. I've been trying to make it out to Ben and Ashlie but it has just been the craziest Summer ever.

Good times ahead.

The Departed and Best Buy

My computer, a Toshiba Satellite laptop has been at the Best Buy service center (I'm assuming located in some unknown third-world country) for the last 3 weeks. The diagnosis was that my hard drive was sufferring from bad sectors, and it was losing data. Requiring the hard drive to be completely replaced, as well as the LCD for dead pixels. Seeing as though my Toshiba laptop already had the entire cover replaced due to lack of grounding, as well as the motherboard. There isn't much left on the computer left to replace, save for the keys.

Well, either way. My computer isn't ready yet, and I'm gonna lose it.

The Departed is going well, its very fun, Thelma is back and I've been back and forth between here and editorial!

This weekend: Movies with Razmig, Chrissy, and Jeff!

A little get together

Chrissy, Mike, and Nayad came over yesterday for a little get together. We hung out, had some pizza and divine mozzarella sticks and had a marathon of my movies since High School. It was so weird watching stuff I hadn't watched in such a long time. Nayad was interviewed for A Look Through Our Eyes which she'd never seen before, so I was glad she finally got to watch it.

It was a good time, Chrissy got me some house warming presents! A towel dispenser, a little dishwashin soap thingie, and a really sweet picture of us!

Friday after work I went up to Framingham to meet Chrissy's grandmother who is up visiting from Florida. She was a very nice lady and I had a very good time!

The editors are back tomorrow, so I'm psyched about that, and the movie moves back completely on Tuesday. The future is still up in the air, but its slowly becoming a little bit clearer, for once.

OH! Arabian Productions.com is back up and running and better then ever, check it out! It's completely revamped, all new, with new content, and uniform design. http://www.arabianproductions.com

Coffee on Crotch

It's 8:34AM and I just noticed I spilled coffee on my crotch. Now it looks like a nice pee stain.

Enough to ruin anyone's day? Perhaps.
