so the most annoying part of my day right now is that the power cord to my computer is malfunctioning. lame. i hate going to the apple store, they charge you for everything, every little thing, and no matter what is isn't their fault. oddly enough the same power cord doesn't work for a lot of people, but it couldn't be a design problem could it? or an engineering issue? no is must be usage, even though i use it how you are supposed to. i love apple, but it is still a corporation, and i sure hate red tape and "procedure" BOO.
annoying part 2: i think i might have strep throat again. that just sucks, it has only been like a month since the last time. the nurse said if it was strep it was probably the same one. lame again. i have to wait until tomorrow for the results. in the meantime i am probably getting more people sick, helping to mutate the virus and make it impossible for antibiotics to cure the fucker.
so yesterday... we had a meeting at buntport, finalized some business blahblah etc. then this guy hannah had been talking to (trying to get a donation of wood and such) came by to discuss our set and needs. and then he said it would be built by next friday. WHAT? he is just going to send some of his guys (construction workers) over and they are going to frame a house for us inside the theater. WHAT? that doesn't happen. but whatever they build, we will make it work. it makes me super nervous, what if they don't understand the drawings or our idea at all, ahhhh. but, it is better then us learning how to build a house by ourselves, though that would be a cool skill to have.
i saw two movies yesterday. #1 a sneak preview of "the greatest game ever played." now let me just preface this with how much i love free movies, they are one of my favorite things. having/finding/getting free passes to previews makes my week, anytime it happens. sometimes it is just the greatest thing ever. like in the case of murderball, which we saw months before it came out in denver and i am sure everyone was sick of us talking about it by the time they saw it (it is soooo incredible.) and other times, like in the case of last night's movie, you are lucky you saw it for free. now i love shai lebeouf, i mean love him, in holes, i robot, even stevens, i even love him in constantine, but even he can't make this movie compelling. it was just boring. you might think "well, it is about golf sam; what did you expect?" i expected a sports movie, and everything that comes with it: an underdog story, some great speeches about teamwork or overcoming odds, some tension, and some fun historical facts. see, what you might not know about me is i have a great love and appreciation for the art of sports movies. they are like romantic comedies to me; a guilty pleasure, that i don't feel bad about. i'd watch sports movies all day everyday if i could; movies about football, hockey, dancing, cheerleading, basketball and yes even golf. but the movie last night just didn't tell a good story, the character weren't developed, there wasn't an obvious "bad guy/good guy," the class struggle was glossed over. it was too subtle for a disney movie, and not subtle enough for an indy flick.
but then i saw "brothers grimm" which was really fun. i also love heath ledger and matt damon, so it was a good night of actors at least. i am not going to spoil the movie, it is fantastical and magical and everything you want from a terri gilliam movie about fairy tales.
after the movie there was a little rewind to a time in highschool that i never participated in. in car makeouts. totally fun and awkward.

recommendation: murderball (no joke, best movie of the year)
recommendation 2: people watching in a park @ 3pm, before all the runners come out, when it is mostly stay-at-home- parents and kids.
