"A human being is a part of a whole, called by us 'universe', a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest... a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty."
-Albert Einstein

"Across the Universe" (in love with it), "FIGHT CLUB!!!," "Full Metal Jacket" (Finally saw it, in HD no less, and words can't describe), "Hellboy" (1 & 2), "Ghost World" (Didn't really like it so much the first time, probably wasn't cynical and bitter enough yet, but it RULES!), "Knocked Up" (Judd Apatow and I need to talk), "Poltergeist" (My favorite horror movie ever), "Waiting for Guffman"(GENIUS), "Clueless" (gets unjustly written off as a chick flick, but is an extremely strong, impeccably cast comedy, and I will fight you till the cows come home about its merit!), "Proof" (<3333333), "Thirteen" (Evan Rachel Wood is amazing), "Mean Girls" (not as good as "Clueless," but still awesome, and I LOVE Tina Fey, "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" (Gorgeous, heartbreaking, surprisingly NOT overrated if that makes sense), "Anne of Green Gables" (Possibly the best movie version of a book, ever, another amazing cast), "Buffalo '66" (I'm probably gonna get rocks thrown at me for saying this, but I liked this movie a lot more for desperate loneliness and weird connections than "Lost in Translation"), but now I will say "Lost in Translation" because I resaw it and did a 180 on it, "Lucas" (One of the most thoughtful highschool comedies ever done, especially for the time), "Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom" (I know it's the weakest one, but it's my favorite!), "Back to the Future" (ONLY the first one), "Gremlins" (Yay!), "Glory," "Lean on Me," "Se7en" (Morgan Freeman = The Master), "Black Snake Moan," (LOVE!!!), "Kill Bill" (I'm all of a sudden obsessed 'cause I finally saw them, "Planet Terror" (It's GO GO. Not CRY CRY!!!!!), "Crazy/Beautiful" (I know it looks awful, but it's really not, and Jay Hernandez and Kirsten Dunst are awesome together), "Sunshine" (BRILLIANT!)

Books
Cat's Eye by Margaret Atwood, The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky, Why Girls are Weird by Pamela Ribon, The Giving Tree by Shel Silverstein, everything by Beverly Cleary, who had one of the biggest impacts on my life. Right now I'm re-reading a favorite, The Gift of Fear by Gavin De Becker.
Lord, make me an instrument of Your peace.
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
where there is injury, pardon;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
and where there is sadness, joy.
Oh, Lord,
grant that I may not so much seek
to be consoled as to console;
to be understood as to understand;
to be loved as to love;
for it is in giving that we receive;
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned;
and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life. .. ..

PLEASE READ MY STUFF! I'LL LUV YOU 4EVA!
Important disclaimer! I used to type my blogs in Microsoft Word, and for whatever reason, that transferred to Myspace with no apostrophes, ellipses, or a couple of other things that I can't think of right now. Anyway, the thing is that Myspace won't let you edit the year, so now if I try to edit mistakes, the blogs repost as today's date. And anal as I may be about proofreading, I am WAY too anal to have my blogs all out of order. So for now, please forgive the missing punctuation and know that I do care, and also am a really good proofreader. Hire me!
You love agreeable company, peace, and harmony.
Compassionate and friendly, you love to help others.
A natural poet, you have a very active imagination.
You are very soft on the inside - needing affection and reassurance.
You can fall in love deeply, but you will leave if you feel betrayed.
You are romantic, expressive, and hopeful. You see the best in everything.
You are very artistic, and you see the world as your canvas. You are also drawn to the written word.
Inventive and unique, you are often away in your own inner world.
Who I'd like to meet: Seth Rogen, Tina Fey, Seth Green, Tommy Chong, Beverly Cleary, Wendy Williams, The people in charge of "Weeds" and "The Shield," Danny Boyle, Bill Waterson, Scott Adams, Michael Baisden, Sebastian Bach, Judd Apatow, and Queen Latifah. Preferably at the same time, because how AWESOME would THAT be!!!
Judi, your Happy Birthday wishes put a smile on my face and made my day! I truly appreciate your friendship. I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday. Enjoy, relax and eat lots of goodies!
Sweetheart, Just wanted to stop by and say hello and to wish
you a wonderful weekend. You are an important part of my life as you
should be. Thanks for helping to make each day a better one. I hope
that in some way that I do the same for you. I'll be off of here till
about the 28th of this month. My two granddaughters that I haven't seen
in a year is coming to visit me this Sunday with their Mother. I'll be
devoting my time to them. I know that you understand. May you have a
fabulous weekend and a great week. Always, Charlie
..
Online Now!
to you Judi.
