yada, yada, yada for the last weeks

I have been on crutches for two weeks and I haven't hit anyone. This either means I'm becoming mature or no longer amused by mean & cruel acts. Two weeks on crutches and I never even thought of hitting someone with my crutch...wow I must be depressed.

To pass the time while I'm imobile I have started reading again. Read a book titled Rough Trade by a Stephen Jackson. It is a true crime, suspense, drama about a killer who frequented prostitutues and killed a gal in Boulder and most of the story takes place in Boulder & Denver. It is less then 10 yrs old and has a great story of redemption for one of the prostitutes. I don't recommend it as the reading wasn't fascinating nor was the story gripping nor did it cover new ground. It was just cool to read a true crime story that took place in my state!

I do recommend 2 movies, The Prestige & Unknown. The Prestige has good cast with good performances but the story is amazing. Good stories seem to be rare in Hollywood these days. Unknown is an independant film about five men who regain conciousness in a warehouse and have no recollection of who they are & why they are there. There is evidence of a struggle, a gun, rope, a smashed cell phone & good performances by Greg Kinear, Joe Pantoliano, & Jim Caviezel. The way this movie unfolds you are kept guessing until the very end! I haven't been this pleased with an independant movie since Crash!

House sitting again. The first night I forgot I didn't have a key to the garage door & left the garage door opened locked in my car in the garage. I found out that 24-7 emergency lock smiths can find you very quickly & be some what expensive. (So I tried calling the people I was house sitting for but it was 7 a.m. and explaining my car was locked in their garage and I couldn't find a key to their garage door was embaressing.) It was also embaressing to call in late to work explaining I locked my car in someone else's garage. I have learned embaressment knows no boundaries or has no age limits.
