Last Night of Freedom (for Kelly)
Mood:  caffeinated
Now Playing: Young Rascals' "Groovin' (On a Sunday Afternoon)"

well, school's back in session. not for me, i've graduated. i've moved on to the purgatory of an 8-5 job. but not Kelly, she's still trapped on campus. she pretends she's excited, she's such a little trooper, but i can see her eyes screaming for the freedom that comes with graduation. in due time, my dear, in due time.

we celebrated her last night of freedom with a trip to McKay's Used Books, DVD's and CD's. exciting stuff. i picked up a copy of "A Clockwork Orange," and "The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen." i'm looking forward to reading both, though i am disappointed i couldn't find anything by Chuck Palahnuik. his book "Fight Club" was absolutely amazing and i'm eager to read something else by him. ah well. another time, perhaps. after our field trip to Discarded Book Land, Kelly and i swung by Sonic for a Good-Bye to Summer Milkshake.

i took Kelly back to my apartment where she raided my DVD collection for her parents, who, when they have a spare hour, pop in a DVD or go to an R-rated comedy to be offended.

after Kelly went home with her bundle of my DVD's, i sat down and enjoyed "Layer Cake," a gritty British gangster movie. if you dig any of the following: "The Usual Suspects, "Snatch," or "Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels," you'll enjoy this. i can see why Matthew Vaughn was offered the job of directing X3. very dark, gritty, and moody. two thumbs up. but then again, i have a soft spot for British movies. and nobody does British gangster movies like the British.

but don't watch it if you don't like "four-letter language." the British excel at that.
