*Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind*

Sitting here, eating strawberry jello. Just saw that movie. Obviously from the previews you can tell its supposed to be sort of odd, and it is, but by the end of the movie everything just completely makes sense. I don't know how to explain really. It's about love. I guess the reason it clicks is that it doesn't show movie love... it portrays the relationship as flawed, frustrating sometimes, difficult... but still amazing. The lack of perfection just makes the whole thing so real... even though its all about dreams and memories and imagination. You watch and you think "that's me" in some way... It touches on fate a little bit... you just want to tell them its worth it... i wanted to wake them up; wanted them to see the movie we saw in the audience. Do you ever wonder that if you saw your life from an audience's view, you might think different about the things you do and say? Hmm... movie decisions are so easy... and movie life is so easy... because you have an end to everything and you know, or at least almost always know the way its going to end. So really there are no decisions there... things just happen in the way that you know they will happen. Then every once in a while a movie comes along and you truly wonder what will happen, and that's when the movie can capture you... and that's when i enjoy them most...

i love movies...

anyway, i'm sleepy, its late, i have an 8 AM. It's another week. But these are the times that make sleep so wonderful and perfect...

goodnight
