I would just like to express how much I don't want to go to work tomorrow. Even after a four-day weekend (well, minus some worktime to make up for the days off), I am still burnt out. I assumed that this sort of feeling would pass once I landed myself an enjoyable job, but you know what? I currently have the enjoyable job, and I *still* don't want to go to work. BLAAAHHHHH.
Maybe I should get one of those full-spectrum light bulbs. I always feel extra-lazy in the winter, I earned lower grades in Winter Term than in Fall or Spring while I was in school, and I kind of miss the sun. Having a day job got me all accustomed to actually seeing the day star on a regular basis.
I saw Alexander yesterday. Yes, the reviews are pretty much correct: this movie were trying for epic, but they kind of missed the mark. By a lot. ::laughs::
I will award them a bonus point or three for the mushy lover's dialogue between Colin Farrell and Jared Leto, though. That's about as explicit as I've ever seen big-screen Hollywood do a gay relationship, and it was a nice nod to the actual history--the industry seems to like glossing over anything non-hetero in history, *especially* when it's in relation to a heroic lead character. I think the HoYay! was the only part of this movie to earn a wholehearted thumbs-up from me. Otherwise, meh.
Anyway, I should go do some dishes.
