threeplusfireI'm feeling better today, despite being woken from sound dreaming by wretched cramps. Oh the injustice of being a girl. At least a package arrived full of chocolates and cookies a little dog and a photograph for my desk. Little things, I am reminded, and I really should mail about seven packages now. Not to mention my thank you notes.
They sent us home at 9pm last night, which was unusual and weird. But there was no work at all, anywhere. Typical of my office, the floor manager sent out an email at 6pm outlining when and who could go. Our immediate superiors, the leads, ran around like headless chickens pretending they knew nothing. It was superbly annoying.
So we went to Blockbuster, avoided the loud and annoying baglady wearing a surgical mask, and pondered movies. I saw The Reflecting Skin, which I might have to watch sometime only because it sounds so superbly creepy. That, and I want to know why Lindsay Duncan and Viggo Mortensen are in it. We picked up a copy of From Hell because I never saw it in the theater. I like Moore's graphic novel so it's worth a shot.
Speaking of films and comics, it's been far too long since I last saw Tank Girl. I was fifteen when it was in the theaters and I think James & I saw it at least eight times. Had a great soundtrack too, and it was fun. Any movie that casts Ice T, Lori Petty, Iggy Pop and Malcolm McDowell can't help but be bizarre. Especially if you cast Ice T as a giant kangaroo man.
