random thoughts (that i forgot to post yesterday.)

i finally finished das parfum. they're making a movie of it. i'm really wondering how they film the end. (and if they stay true to the book, does it ever get released in the us?)

realized yesterday that while i miss people-watching and listening to my ipod on the tube, i do not at all miss having my space invaded by men who feel that their precious testicles entitle them to not only the space in their seat, but also the space in mine. close your legs, boys. nobody wants to see it, and i do not want your legs in contact with mine. if i wanted you touching me, i'd ask.

edit (one random thought from today)
there is a possibility that the true confessions of charlotte doyle will be made into a movie. i loved the book. i hope the movie gets made. it's apparently a danny devito project, and he did good things with matilda.

on my grocery expedition, i not only got provolone, i also got beef and baguettes. the idea was to make cheesesteak, or as close to cheesesteak as it gets without hoagie rolls. being fundamentally lazy, i didn't want to have to make hoagie rolls myself. well, in a moment of weakness, i ate the baguettes while puttering around cleaning and watching the computer go. now i have to wait until tomorrow. (even if i try to make the rolls myself, they wouldn't be done for a couple hours. it's 7pm and i'm starving, so cheesesteak tonight is a no-go.)
