Before I go through my weekend for you, let me unveil an homage to Pro (in the form of a badly rhymed poem).

I have a co-worker named Pro,
I wish I could learn all he knows,
He never gets mean,
But might give a scream,
When ocassionally I call him a “ho”

La Mala EducacionLa Mala EducacionLa Mala Educacion

Not only did I go to the BBQ Block Party in Manhattan this weekend, I saw three great movies. First, on Friday after work I went to see Mad Hot Ballroom with Vicki and Keng. It was great to walk around the city (even though it was so hot) and then go to watch a movie that takes place there.

All the movies I saw this weekend were A+ movies. Mad Hot Ballroom is worth the humbling experience when you realize that kids who are 8 know more about life then you do.

La Mala Educacion (Bad Education) was riveting and a great addition to Almodovar’s library.

Advise and Consent was incredible. It must have been ground-breaking for it’s time.

I would reccommend all of these movies. Let me know if you’ve seen any of them and weather you liked them or not.

 
OK Guys, I get so many hits trying to find out about Sean Penn’s tattoo in Mystic River that I decided to take pictures off the tv screen the other day. I apologize for the quality, but it’s the best I could do. Now we can see Sean in all his pimped out glory just before his wife goes all “Lady MacBeth”. Here it is people, what you’ve been waiting for.

There is no way to discribe this movie. Just go see it and be careful when you take a sip of soda, it might end up coming out your nose. My favorite line: “Pedro offers you his protection.”

I finally saw the Movie “Monster” and it was great. I know it’s odd, but I love reading murder mysteries and learning about the psychology of it all. I know it’s terrible to get entertainment from such terrible things, but I really am fascinated. I wonder if it has something to do with trying to make sense of what has happened to the people who are victims…

On a similar note I am also reading a book called the “Black Dahlia Avenger”. This book is so captivating. This story seems so unbelievable, but it’s amazing. I’ve been telling everyone they should read it. Another book I couldn’t put down.

I really have been under a lot of stress lately, not just normal stress, but everything combined. Work, Life, health… A few weeks ago my dermatologist thought I might have skin cancer. It turns out that I don’t (thank god) but that was a NERVEWRACKING week to say the least. Work is always a little stressful (and I actually seem to work better that way) but lately it’s been plain stupid. I feel like I’m beating my head against a wall and it’s not getting any better really.

I never thought I’s say this but I actually miss Rochester a bit because of all the great people I worked with there. I like the people I work with today, but there are only one or two I would consider people I would hang out with outside of work, and we never seem to make it out. In Rochester we would always hang out, we were all friends and I had some great times. I think I had more of a social life there then I do here. I live in the suburbs here and none of my friends live close. I work in a corporate environment, which isn’t very conducive to me being myself or allowing anyone to get to know me at all.

I feel twice as old as I am now. But actually American Gigolo is on HBO and it’s a laugh. All Blondie music and bad 80’s sunglasses. I guess I don’t feel so old anymore. I am making a list of things I want to do so I won’t forget. Maybe I’ll post it soon.

In the mean time, take care and have fun.
