This vid is pretty awesome. He nails it. I know what you're all thinking... "isn't that you?" uh no... although I admit there are some similarities.

Perfume and Stardust

Lauren picked this movie out from Netflix. We got it in and watched it. I loved it. I wasn't really keen on watching it at first because it was Lauren's pick. We have very different tastes in movies. I never even heard of it in theatres and when I saw reviews of it on Rotten Tomatoes, which it received 53% on, I was convinced I wouldn't like it. My lowered expectations may have been the reason why I enjoyed it so much, but I thought everything was done pretty well. I bet the book was a hundred times better knowing that 1. the book is always better and 2. the movie was about scent which is probably better described then shown. Anyway, it was a surreal, twisted, funny, scary, suspenseful period piece that I liked very much. Probably my favorite movie of the year so far.



We also saw Stardust over the weekend which I enjoyed and Lauren thought was okay. Kind of a darker Princess Bride. I love epic movies of any sort. Both these movies fills that category for me.

Doodles

Man... looking back on my school days it's a wonder I even made it to college. I'm glad I did but I was a pretty bad student. I had the worst time paying attention in classes. I spent most of my time doodling in the margins, on the desk, in the books, etc. Even when I tried to pay attention to what was going on, my mind would drift and I would start doodling. Anyway, my doodles have evolved and nowadays, I get paid to doodle out ideas for things. Of course the quality of doodles I do to get paid is a little better than what I like to do casually but I still like pumping these little guys out just for fun.
