Salad days.

22 01 2008

So today i morn the death of my computer, i hope that i can bust out the drive there is alot of music and photos on it. Slowly but surely all of my electronic good are going the way of the graveyard so far I’ve lost (in order) my i river, my xbox 360, my cannon slr, my computer and my playstation is always overheating/ shorting out. I’d like to think i’m not a bad user of todays electronics my i river had a good 3 years of play, the 360 was one of the original release ones which always got hot, i dropped my camera on the sidewalk, computer was secondhand, and the playstation was secondhand too.

I watched juno last night, good film but horrible audience it was a combination of single guys, couples, guys on first dates and me and two friends. Anyway the bursts of almost on queue laughter was real of putting one guy had this real nasally laugh it would be a loud “EH HEH HEH HEH HEH HA HA HEH” any time the word vagina was said, dude lost it when juno said ” porksword”. It was well written and the two leads were great Micheal Cera did well as his almost typecast role being the reserved, diffident young male and Ellen Page played the quirky, unconventional teen juno, which i’m sure alot of young teeanage girls can relate to. The problem with the movie i found that it was being marketed as “knocked up for the younger generation” and as much i enjoyed that movie they are leagues apart. Pregnancy is a serious topic and in knocked-up it tackles the issue real light-heartedly with some stoner and flatulence references thrown in with the lead eventually becoming responsible, in Juno it shows the beginning of one becoming “sexually active” and what its like falling in love and being rejected and the overall stress involved with growing up. Soundtrack was great and not to be an uptight-indie aficionado but most of the people in the cinema would of even heard of sonic youth or the melvins or even recognized Jason Bateman’s shirt which Jennifer Garner disliked (The cover of soundgardens superunknown, Jennifer Garner was also wearing an alice in chains shirt during the painting the nursery scene).

All in all the movie made me think about love and i on the train ride home i home i started to think about all of my ex’s. I cant say i ever loved them, sure it hurt when we broke up but you know that feeling you get when you are in the courting process you feel it above your ribcage just under your neck and your heart is beating twice as fact i guess i only felt that during the first kiss and the first time we held hands, after a month the novelty wore off and things got into a routine don’t get me wrong i enjoyed their company but when things got too serious i had to get out of there. I only ever felt the fast heartbeat/ribcage thing twice in my life and the were shortly followed by the sharp stabbing feeling in the same place and every time i took a breath in or out it felt like my chest was caving-in and my soul was escaping. Which brings you to why i’m taking a break from the night life
