Sunshine
Directed by Danny Boyle in 2007. Scored by John Murphy. I just watched this movie, after wanting to originally see it back when it released. I'm a sucked for 'Man vs. Outer Space' movies. And sci-fi in general. And then I watched this one, and it was so powerful. And I don't mean epic. Sure, some of the music fills you up and lifts you, but its just powerful. The whole film, so under-rated, but so good.
Beware: Alchohol and Sarah McLachlan
So, here I am sitting after drinking with friends. It was a great evening. I really am appreciative of those few people that I have come into contact with. And I don't mean that everyone I make small talk with I end up hanging out with. Seriously, I am so happy to have this most recent opportunity to hang out and be cool. And maybe talk sex for a moment. It was great. All of it.
But as you can tell by the first bit of the post, you can see that I am trying to get to some point. Today happens to be my ex's birthday. I wouldn't have realized this had not a mutual friend (not really) on Facebook made it her status. It was sort of forced upon me, in my defense. I didn't really think about it at all. Then I came home, and saw something that made me want to see her facebook page. Probably something that had nothing to do with her birthday, but it still peaked my interest. So I checked her page.
At least 50 birthday responses. Which is crazy huge. It just sorta blew my mind. Thinking about it a moment after, I realize that is about 10% of her friends, but still. I guess part of me just wishes that I had a large amount of people in my life that wished me happy birthday.
Now, if you made it through that first-half, please hang on, clearer skies are ahead. Thinking about it now, I see that the few people in my life tend to be genuine, or at least act that way toward me. I don't care which is which. I just appreciate those people in my life that notice me as much as I notice them. I have this amazing girlfriend, that I really wish was around more. She makes me so happy, and its wonderful. I have this great collection of friends that make my life more colorful. I have friends in Seattle that enlighten me of what it's like to be a non-Academian. I have friends in Cheney, WA that remind me about how nice it is to have someone appreciate you. I have friends two blocks down that make me see how fun a 40oz and a Wii can be. I really appreciate my friends, even if I don't show it enough as I should. I love you all.
