Calm between storms, rain rain rain rain – but at least the new, yet to emerge grass will get a good drink.
Slowly getting back into the post-Spring break swing of things but it'll take a bit., probably until Memorial Day, at which point Summer break will start, which... eh: I'll just do what I can do when I can and be done with it. Keep hoping that my mojo here will return but so far, no dice. Alas.
Annual eye doctor / lets make sure T1D hasn't ravaged your eyes appt around the time the next wave of storms is supposed to hit. My eyes, they will dilate.
Operative phrase, at present: I don't know what I don't know and/or what am I not seeing? Applicable to all aspects of all hours waking or otherwise.
CON AIR (Simon West, 1997)
(*** / *****; ***** / ***** for the bunny scenes) :: First time seeing it since it came out and, between Cage sounding like the lovechild of Foghorn Leghorn and Kilmer's Doc Holiday and slowrunning/jumping from any number of explosions or infernos, Steve Buscemi having a tea party in an empty swimming pool, Malkovich holding a gun to a stuffed bunny, and the titular AIRplane crash-landing into the Las Vegas strip before culminating in a chase involving a fire truck, a skywalk, and heavy machinery, CON AIR remains one of the most gloriously insane blockbusters ever. Also: Colm Meaney and John Cusack should do / should've done more projects together.
