Worked all day on my Blade Runner paper yesterday and finally finished a draft around 1 a.m. 26 pages, 7,414 words. ( And my conclusion kicks ass.Collapse )
The most amusing part of the whole experience was when I took a dinner break. I got my pizza and settled down in front of the TV, figuring I'd watch something to take my mind off my work. I turn on the TV--and guess what's on? (Hint: It wasn't Gone With the Wind.) I actually watched it for a while, because as sick as I was of writing about it, it's a fucking great movie.
Today I've wasted most of the afternoon downloading tracks from
audiography because the theme this week is movies, and I want everything. My favorite catch, though, has been two Harry Belafonte tracks from Beetlejuice, which I'll pass on to you:
Day-O (Banana Boat Song)
Jump in the Line
I love Beetlejuice and I'm especially amused by these because when my brother was little, the only way we could get him to fall asleep in the car was by playing this soundtrack.
Now...A CONTEST! Whoever can make the shortest, Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon-style link between Blade Runner and Beetlejuice wins! GO!

Ugh. I've been working on my Blade Runner essay all day. I have eleven pages and I feel so. brain dead. I can't believe I'm only halfway there. Even the cups and cups of tea I've been drinking aren't helping. I wish I had something really nice to eat. I suppose that pretty soon, I'll be digging into the leftover Easter candy. Joy.
Back to work, I suppose. Ugh.

Urgh. I am feeling so mindfucked right now. I just finished House of Leaves, which'd be enough right there. Add to that the fact that I haven't really slept for four days and that I spent more than six hours on Saturday (or was it Sunday?) reading about Blade Runner and listening to the Vangelis score--which was a mindtrip of its own--and you've got one seriously out of joint Trinity.* I think I'll do the dishes. Sometimes that helps clear my head.
Then it'll be back to more Blade Runner reading. Have I mentioned how much I want this semester to end? I'll give you a hint: it starts with 'a' and ends with 'lot.'
*Calling myself that doesn't sound right. Sometimes I miss my old moniker.

Jon Stewart was hosting again, and he was funny and engaging (despite making the obvious crack about John’s hair winning an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor)
I saw this…
