The Search for Love in Manhattan

August 09, 2007

An internal monologue I wish I could do over:

Oh, yay, the mail is here. Let's see if I got anything interesting. Bill, bill, bill, junk, bill, junk, junk, gosh here's a Netflix DVD! I wonder what they sent me. Hmm, Sophie's Choice. Gee, I forgot I had even put that on my queue. But I'm glad they sent it, because I always hear people talking about what a good movie it is and I've never seen it and now I'll know what they're talking about! Plus, I've been in kind of a funk for a couple days so it'll be nice to have a good movie to cheer me up.

I've never made it all the way through the movie. By about one third of the way through I contemplate opening up a vein and stepping into a warm bath.

2) Bob said (on 08/10/07 at 04:47 PM):

You may want to take "Old Yeller" off the queue. Don't ask; just do it.

Should've ordered porn.

I do over my internal monologues all the time. But it's a double-edged sword since almost all of them end up as "Mmmm, donuts."

I just received LIE after sitting on it for over 4 hours in traffic one night this week.

Three words I never thought I'd hear in the same sentance - Sohpie's Choice and cheer. Huh.

I refuse to believe you are that naive.

How'd the first performance go?

Hey, it's Snoskred again.

I had never heard of this movie but after reading the synopsis on IMDB, I think I'll not be looking out for it. Seems a little bit depressing to me. Like others commenting, I want to know more about the play! :)

While I'm here, every few months or so I like to drop by and let you know I'm still reading you via the google reader. I do want you to know that I love your work and enjoy your writing.

On this visit I have something else to mention. I've finally bought myself my own domain. I've also had a facelift. No, not to my actual face, to the site. ;) I made a new title graphic, changed the template, and a few other things. If you are reading my blog via a feedreader, you don't have to change anything as far as I know, you'll still be getting my posts.

If you're not reading my blog, and you have a spare second, maybe you can drop by and say hi and let me know what you think of my new layout! ;)

Snoskred - has a new home at -

please update your linkage, if you link to me! Thanks!

Isn't "Sophie's Choice" a bisexual porno? And if not, shouldn't there be one with that title?

That movie has aged so horribly... But on the bright side, It was one of Kevin Kline's last animated film performances.
Since then, he's sort of perfected the art of imitating himself for the camera.
Poor Sophie, nowadays they have medication for that sort of thing.
