Leaving Febrary 6

It snowed some. I made potato soup at work. Not much to recall that I care to write down, so I won't. I'm kindov in a foul mood, so I'd rather just move on. Bye for now.

It's neat learning all this stuff about film, art, music and philosophy, but it is way more time consuming than I imagined. I barely have time for anything else during the day. Especially if I have to work. It'd be pretty cool to get paid to do this, wouldn't it? Planning on going to the VMFA tomorrow to hang out with my friends Kris and Paul.

André Bazin said: "Cinema shows us a world that fits our desires" Contempt is the story of that world. Jerry Prokosch: Whenever I hear the word "culture," I bring out my checkbook. Come here. Fritz Lang: Some years ago - some horrible years ago - the Nazis used to say "revolver" instead of "cheque book".
