“Please make sure, when you buy a ticket for “Precious: Based on the Novel ‘Push’ by Sapphire,” to pronounce the title in full. I know you will. There was a plan to call it “Push,” until another movie got there first. But why not call the new one “Precious,” and leave it at that? After all, Deborah Kerr didn’t star in “The Innocents: Based on the Novella ‘The Turn of the Screw’ by Henry James,” and Dustin Hoffman didn’t star in “Rain Man: Based on the Overwhelming Desire to Win an Academy Award by Dustin Hoffman,” so why the change in rubric?”

I just found out that someone I don’t really know, but with whom I share many mutual friends, once used the word “narrow” to describe me. I’m confused about a lot of things right now. That’s weird, right?

I finally saw this tonight for four bucks at the Logan Theatre.

“In counter-point, Michael argues that what he is doing may not be ‘Melville,’ but it is still very creative. Huh? May not be Melville? The writer? Because no, making brochures for pregnant aerobics is not Melville. I don’t think anyone says that, though? ‘Advertising! I guess it’s creative, but it’s not Melville.’ I also like that Melville is still the go-to reference for living the dream life of creative fulfillment.”

At last night’s IMPRESS THESE APES finale, Christina performed an original song and dance number. In roller skates. With a kazoo solo.

She is my BFF.

One of my co-workers found out that someone stole his Netflix. He realized it when the discs were returned to Netflix before he received them. Still, what considerate mail thieves! Once I received a Netflix that had been opened, but whoever was tempted to steal my mail realized that they had no interest in watching Alice Doesn’t Live Here Anymore and put it back in the mailbox.

I’m sure some of my co-workers think I’m a major contrarian who stirs shit up because I get some kind of enjoyment over watching people argue. Really, though, I don’t care that much, and when someone sends me a snippy email in response to a legitimate question regarding the relay of a procedural reminder, I become less and less invested in a job I already don’t give much of a shit about.

Billy Ocean, “When the Going Gets Tough, the Tough Get Going”

Just so we’re all clear on things: As far as I’m concerned, the world would be a better place if every movie ever were a Michael Douglas/Kathleen Turner vehicle.

I listened to this twice this morning.

“Basically, I realized, I was living in that awful stage of life from the age of twenty-six to thirty-seven known as stupidity. It’s when you don’t know anything, not even as much as you did when you were younger, and you don’t even have a philosophy about all the things you don’t know, the way you did when you were twenty or would again when you were thirty-eight.”

Katy: Why are you all fired up today?
Me: I think being pissed about not being able to get married is a way of distracting myself from being bitter that I’m single.

Clearly a different subject matter, but it seems someone is always fighting for basic rights in this allegedly free country.
