And I read some of the comments and looked at some of the photos and I want to vomit/cry/punch him in the face. In particular, the photo of Neda. And all the haha-beating-up-your-girlfriend-is-hilarious jokes.
Seriously, I want to crawl into a hole and never come out after reading some of the comments. I feel like there is absolutely no hope if this is how men are turning out these days. And there is no fighting it because they just laugh and call you a feminist bitch and keep telling stupid jokes.
I hate the planet right now. =(

But... I already have a tumultuous relationship with his mother (she is a hardcore conservative). We once got into a fight because she blamed the women's movement for getting women the right to work, because if she wasn't allowed to work she could have spent more time with her kids, so therefore the women's movement sucked and women should be forced to stay home like in the good old days. And another fight because she was going on about how she hates having to be "politically correct" about racist jokes because "stereotypes are stereotypes for a reason- they're true!"...
She doesn't exactly agree with my political views, to say the least... I'm not even going there, we've made a peace treaty for the mean time...

Anyways, regardless of beliefs women should be respected. But that's just imho.

That is the difference between a crap movie and a movie that my boyfriend puts into the regular sexytimes inducing rotation, much like 300.
11/22/09
300 is wonderful to watch on mute, haha.

I'm thinking this might be the thing that finally causes me to go, to really apply for jobs and mean it. I've been hesitant, because well, I'm a wimp. But I leave town and come back and get a headache instantly. Another thing, I have no friends-tried to get some earlier, but failed. I do have a good therapist, and we're figuring out my shit, but we just got started and leaving this town would mean leaving her.
How do you know when it's time to leave a place? Is a good enough job but a bad enough everything else reason?
11/22/09
Maybe when you're feeling better, it will be easier for you to pursue your other aims.
And: trust your intuition!
11/22/09
But it sounds like you're really keen to go. I say why not? You can always go back if you miss it. Restlessness is a good enough reason to leave, especially if you're essentially unattached.

I've heard eating a spoonful of local honey each day helps with allergies. Is that what you mean by bee pollen?
And I've been thinking of pursuing other things for the past two years or so. It's insane. I keep going back and forth, several times in day, several times in an hour.
No wonder my therapist thinks I have OCD. Ruminations, anyone? I keep thinking shit like, "Oh, I could move back to (home state), but they're about to elect that idiot governor for a third frackin' term. I can't live in a state where he's governor!" Then I think, "I can't stay here; these people are even worse in some ways!"
Of course, I can do either one. It just all depends on other things.
I've sent out some apps before, but nothing. Now there's a couple more potential jobs out there that I could apply for. I probably should, as I am going to have to leave Allergy Pit sooner or later. I will not be retiring here.

@lalaland13: This is bee pollen - totally distinct from honey. Good luck with all your changes!

@Lysergic Asset: Ohh thanks! It looks kinda pretty, too.

And also, I don't want to have sex with myself forever.
Wherever I go, I do need a therapist. That's probably true.

When people say blank city is terrible for singles! or blank city is great for singles! it can become a self-fulfilling prophecy and I wouldn't take any of that on board (if that's what you're concerned about).

1. Why is Katharine Hepburn the greatest actress of all time? (Rhetorical - She is. It's been proven)
2. Why does the song Moon River make me tear up even though I never cry?
3. What is it about black & white movies that are so comforting?
4. I think I genuinely have the mean reds and I don't think a trip to Tiffany's or a male prostitute friend will cure them. How do you all cure the mean reds?
Ooh, SNL's gonna start soon. That might help!

God, Tiffany's is one of those movies that I could watch over an over again. I could even watch it on mute - literally recite the entire movie. Plus, it's just fun to look at.

The SS True Love. My my, they were all so yar.
I know you're an old movie buff (right?). Have you ever seen Woman of the Year? It's a Hepburn classic and as a Tracy/Hepburn flick that is not to be missed. It was ahead of it's time in many ways.

And I'll have the Tracy/Hepburn set by Wednesday. Just in time for a four-day weekend viewing party. :)

The opening night film is a newly restored print of A Star is Born, which Warners will release on DVD around the time of the festival. I'm so very tempted to go.

Now that I think about it, did you ever see Bringing Up Baby? It's the classic farcical comedy. Endlessly entertaining. (Cary Grant even pokes fun at his own sexuality in this one)
By the way, I want to say that you mentioned How to Marry a Millionaire last week. Am I mistaken?

Another thing: I'm so glad to find a classic movie buff. We're becoming so rare these days...

And yes, I did mention How to Marry a Millionaire last weekend. I watched it on Sunday. :)

And sadly, yeah, it seems like fewer and fewer people are into classic films these days. I know the major studios of all but stopped releasing them on DVD due to poor sales over the last few years (with some exceptions) -- which is why so many box sets and titles are at such rock bottom prices now. It's great for those of us who've waited to buy the movies, but also sad cause there are still a lot of gems -- like the African Queen -- that have never been released on DVD.
11/22/09
1. African Queen = ridiculously amazing. Still in shock that I can't find it anywhere. Luckily, I have a DVR and TCM to quench my insatiable Hepburn thirst.
2. I have a different set of DVD's (I'm very curious about the documentary)
3. I only watched How to Marry A Millionaire for Lauren Bacall (that voice!). Bacall in Key Largo (possibly the longest movie ever), one word: amazing.
4. It's sad how classic films have lost influence/popularity. I say we create a club!

One positive thing I can say about the movie though is that it has a cock shot in it. Shame the whole movie just wasn't cock shots of most of the BSG men.

And I know that everyone was all agog over Johnny Depp's Jack Sparrow, but I've realized that Geoffrey Rush as Barbossa is what really makes the movie for me.

@Bitingpika: I would be flattered if Geoffrey Rush played me in a film about my life. I have no doubt he would perform admirably.
@envirodesigner: He automatically makes any movie better.
