New Year's Eve Day

Just got back from a day out playing hookie from work. Hey, if they're going to lay me off and I don't have much to do, I'm going to go play. Bad, I know. Hee hee. I had lunch and had a great talk with a good friend. Did some shopping. Went to see an independent film "The Long Engagement" - a French movie with the same actress from "Amelie". What wonderful visuals, camera angles and beautiful details to capture the early 1900's during times of war and the aftermath. And the plot was rich with twists and turns, a movie you really had to pay attention to, challenging with subtitles and quick scene changes. I loved it! After exiting the movie, I called a good friend in LA to recommend that she see it, and she had just exited the theaters for the same movie at almost the same time. What a coincidence! Ha! Anyway, I'm getting ready to go play again for the night. Happy 2005!
