damn cold.

Some of the other blogs got some updates so I might as wrap-up and start over. Christmas was uneventful, boxing day was fruitless, and the rest of the holidays were miserable fighting this damn cold that's been giving me ups and downs. I'm so tired all the time. So that's what I've been up to, and that's why I haven't been consistenly training. Everytime I start I think I made the cold get worse again. So I'm doing nothing until I'm all good.

What I *have* been doing is watching movies. (Damn dollar rentals). Red Eye was pretty boring. If anything it seemed like a crappy version of Flightplan which was better. Worth a 1$, nothing more. Kingdom of Heaven was a shortie I rented to watch some action -but geez, it took so stinking long for any action to surface. Too much religion babble and Orlando Bloom is not hero material. March of the Penguins was cute but I'm happy I didn't see it in the theatre. Do people not watch PBS? It didn't seem any more than some documentary. Beautiful footage, sure, but 1.5hrs of it? Someone needs to spend more time in the editing room. 40-Year-Old Virgin was pretty tame. I didn't care much for the character, and didn't think it was the riot people said it was. Maybe I'm a prune. Man I saw more than I thought... Mr & Mrs. Smith wasn't fun either. Too much shooting, near the end I was looking at the clock to see how much more there would be. This is boring to write...

So why is it that an easy conversation starter is "seen anything good lately?". Cuz I haven't. Even the 2005 Cannes commercials at Cinema du Parc was mediocre at best... I guess the last thing I saw that I liked was King Kong but that seems like ages ago...
