narcissistic ramblings

i like the pool. all day i've been singing "the impossible dream", you know, "to dream the impossible dream..." it's from Don Qioxote or something, it's such a grand song, and now i'm singing "danny boy" - and continuously realizing i'm a bit of a technophobe, i like things old and worn out, houses, cars, fashion, furniture, music, books, electronics.. i'm not into the wave of new. i would totally not buy a dvd player if i wasnt being forced to. that 100 year old house that jessica lived at in gainesville is still the coolest house i've ever been in. it hadn't even occurred to me before. do you know that the various forms of the word "occur" are some of the most difficult words for me to spell, or remember how to spell anyway? same with congratulations. i've done nothing productive today save for exercise and consuming vitamin D. Unfaithful last night was really good, better than i remembered thinking it was in the theatre, this after i had read a three star review by jay boyar that i now realize completely sways my thinking - but no, it's really well done, it's of course incredibly sexy, diane lane is freaking gorgeous i can't believe it, but it's also subtle and kind of heartbreaking. i got in the mood to watch this after seeing Bravo's 3 part special on the "sexiest scenes in movies" and you get adrian lyne film after adrian lyne film.. flashdance, 9 1/2 weeks, fatal attraction, indecent proposal, lolita, unfaithful - what's with this guy? and now i find he directed Jacob's Ladder, which is a crazy tim robbins movie i had eyed in blockbuster a few years ago, and ebert was very impressed with it in 1990. i've taken to reading all these old ebert reviews and loving what he's saying.. i completely line up with this guy 99% of the time.

i can't believe frank works in jeff buckley's old rehearsal space.. i want to be in new york right now. wouldn't it be nice to live in a place with a soul?
