District 9

[e_phemerart]

So, forget about starting the Summer with Star Trek (and I didn't even bother with Transformers); I'm just glad to be finishing it with District 9.

"It’s a smart, socially conscious science-fiction film that requires audience attention....It's also incredibly dark and somewhat depressing and poetic at the same time."

Wow; Now, THAT is science fiction. I was impressed.

a not quite random exercise note: 6.5 mile walk (to and from the theatre; I like "bribing" myself with midwalk rewards sometimes.)

I'm not sure. I'm going to be back and forth to the doctor this week, between classes. My back has reached it's limits. i woke up this morning barely able to move.

*careful hugs* hope you get to feeling better soon.

Yeah, me too. My back has been giving me problems ever since I had Korbin. They said I have scoliosis, on top of the doctors nicking my spine with the epidural needle. So, I have no idea what they can do about it. I will find out soon though.

I will let you know what is going on, and when I have free time, so that we can get together and hang out soon. ^_^
