karma's a b*(&#@


poor boy george. how much enjoyment did i get today from watching the former culture club frontman sweeping up garbage. the man knew he was going to be on trash duty, and he still showed up in capris and without socks.... ewww. anyways, i know it's mean, but it was funny to see him with a broom and shovel in hand, pushing around a garbage can. and can i just say, my mom would not be pleased with his sweeping style, WAY too much flyaway dirt. ;) he's got four more days to go, so the warm-up band hasn't even left the stage yet.

a whole new world

went to the east village today, ooooh. it is so far from my neighborhood, i might as well have been in jersey. j/k! anyways, so p. and i went to s'mac - a restaurant devoted to the deity that is mac and cheese. let's just say, they stepped up to the altar, and forgot how to kneel in reverence. it was good, just not the best mac and cheese in the world. i was disappointed, i wanted it to be the best comfort food that just completely hit the spot. oh well, almost proves the point that i don't really need to leave my area, so ha!!

superman, does indeed, return

went to see superman returns earlier today. i thought it was okay, slightly long, but overall a good film. the story was decent, it was filmed beautifully, even though there were times when i felt it was very obviously cg, especially during the flight times. there was a certain deliberateness to the flight scenes that was almost annoying, in that i would expect superman to enjoy flying a little more during the fun times. anyways, kate bosworth was utterly useless, truly didn't like her, brandon routh was okay, very christopher reeve-ish. and the little curly que - it never left the middle of his forehead (except when he was clark kent). i wont spoil the whole point of the movie, but it's an interesting development.

i've been a superman fan since high school, when the oh-so-cute dean cain took over the blue tights. i obsessed over that show, and when tom welling came aboard in smallville, my interest in the comic returned. i admit i've never read a superman comic, so i'm not up on the whole mythology, but the man of steel remains my favorite superhero. and for my brother... superman can totally kick batman's ass, anyday, anytime.
