Twelvies on the internet are so annoying
Tonight I am rewatching Return of the Jedi before I nervously dive into episodes 1 to 3 next week. Then a nice hot shower. I've showered in the morning my whole life, but I think night showering is superior for early rising. I dawdle too much in the morning.
When I had a job with early starts I would shower in the evenings. It worked well. Plus, there is something nice about being freshly clean and getting into bed.

Successful op & vinyl shopping on Sydney Rd today. Picked up a new vinyl and a couple of bits and pieces for my place. The Salvo’s closest to Moreland Rd was the best I walked into. Savers was in and out, way too many people in there.

Procrastination. I ought be packing. Instead I am turning a brick into a frog door stopper.
There's a retro event on at Tallboy and Moose right now. We might go, but I'm taking the girlfriend to dinner and a show in the city, so timing will need to make it worth it
Venom: The Last Dance was good. I didn't understand most of the storyline but I did appreciate the comedy. 4/5 hobbits
I have a love/hate relationship with popcorn.
Chanced it and got rained on in the hills.
Man, Meyers-Creed Road is soooo pretty with all the ferns and it would have been gorgeous had I not been freezing my arse off.
I got a load of dvds, including a few whole series, today. Looking forward to watching Easy Rider and other faves with commentary.
sadly, I think commentaries are just not a common thing for new movies anymore

Quick note on The Fountain :
Aronofsky is obsessed with making movies about obsession. In this case, a physician driven to find a permanent cure for death (and try to save his loving wife)
Thus far, it’s not my favourite in the Aronofsky catalogue ,however, there is a beautiful story here. It’s confusing initially but that isn’t a bad thing sometimes. The viewer is forced to either, make sense of it, or move on.

That was a really long catch-up but I'm kind of drained now and found myself alarmingly almost nodding off at times. I'm glad for it though, because it forced me to vacuum and tidy and clean the bathroom and give the kitchen floor a long overdue mop.
Kind of don't want to cook tomorrow because I'll have to clean up again sigh. But this is life.
Was so frosty outside with that cool wind! I'll be sleeping well tonight, I hope. Tomorrow I need to wake the fuck up. Do the ONE THING that is holding me back with commencing my uni fieldwork and cook and then go out on Monday to do it without feeling like throwing up because of the shame of procrastination.
