Thank you all for your well wishes! I don't know which made me feel better -- the good drugs from the doctor, or the nice notes from everyone. :) I appreciate it! John is back from Portland, and I'm feeling at least 50 percent better. Which is good because I've got two major work assignments due today... ack!
Over the past 24 hours, though, I've managed to catch up on a ton of blog reading, and to watch a couple of weird and dumb movies. Adaptation (the weird one) was quite a trip. I cannot believe they billed it as a comedy. I thought it was sad and interesting but not really that funny.
Intolerable Cruelty (the dumb one) was pretty stupid except for the portrayal of the millionaire Texan by Billy Bob Thornton. That in and of itself was worth the rest of the schlock! Looking past the whole Angelina-and-the-vial-of-blood-that-never-leaves-my-side thing, I think ole' BBT is a talented actor, and pretty cute, too. But maybe that's the drugs talking.
Today's schedule includes Born Into Brothels and Suze Orman's The Courage to Be Rich.
Back to work, sleep, and movies with me.
I thought Adaptation was a great movie. Especially the part when the guy collects rare orchids talks about the flower that attracts a specific bee. You're right though... a comedy? More of a thinking movie.

I'm sorry you're sick and you still read my stuff... thank you, friend.
I thought Adapatation was amazing but very not funny... the whole switch half way through into the movie style his brother was writing... that hyper strange ending... God, that stayed in my mind for years!
Feel better and read my books, they'll heal you.
