Haha, I'm trying to imagine this situation. An exhausted nefeli desperately talking to someone on the phone and an annoying colleague trying to establish a conversation.
Live through the day and look forward to the evening when it's all good. |
you're allowed to smoke in your office? and not wear shoes?
damn, call me up, we'll have an office party. |

I'm okay now, a little bit high on caffeine. Seems like I'm even enjoying my work today. I can't smoke lately, I just can't. My lungs refuse to accept the smoke. I've had a pack of ciggies on Saturday (small pack - only ten pieces) and the day after my lungs ached terribly, as if someone was stabbing me in the chest. I got scared, I don't want to die of cancer. |

haha, yeah, you have a good insight. I don't want to give up an occasional booze-soaked evening or two here and there though. |
i can't do alcohol every day. just once or twice a week is enough for me.
|
yeah, the same. Sensless drinking makes no sense for me anymore, just like once every two weeks, haha. A comfortable evening in a chair with some good music on and a glass of chilled single malt in my hand is a different thing though.

at the venue i'm going to friday for a show, i think they serve alcohol, so hopefully i can weasel a drink. first one in 5854854 years, it feels like.

Quote:
what kind of show it's going to be? |
it's a folky-rock type band. the venue is all ages all the time, and the area i'm in right now is pretty conservative (mormon) so i don't know if the place or any venues in the area serve alcohol or not. i'm too lazy to check.

Holy shit. OvationTV is showing Amadeus 3 times in a row, at 3 and 1/2 hours each. There goes my day.
|
sounds like heaven.
|
It's pretty close. I missed the first hour of the first one, the second is just coming on. Someone up there knew I didn't feel like connecting my VCR to watch Amadeus.
|
i'm waiting for a day when the graduate will come on amc at a time that's not three am. sometimes i just don't want to tivo something. or rent it or buy it. you know?
|
I know what you mean, sort of, I refuse to buy Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory because I love watching it on TV. I spent most nights in the fall up until 4 or 5 am watching movies on TCM and AMC. I'm getting DTs because I haven't watched a black and white movie all summer.
|
all of august on tcm is "night under the stars"- each night is dedicated to a different actor/ress. then sunday nights of course are the silent movies. i'm pretty excited for the ingrid bergman night. i do the same- i put on one of those channels and don't get up or change the channel for ten hours. i just wish amc would show, uh, classics. at least mad men is the best show on television right now.
|
TCM is the best at night. Rope at 1 AM is stellar. There was one time I watched TCM with my roommate for 12 hours straight, from 7PM to 7AM. It was like screwball comedy from the 30s and 40s night He was worse than I was, he'd be up almost 24 hours watching it sometimes.
|
holy hell, that's hardcore.
the screwball comedies are so fun, but my favorites are still the weird silent movies. i just watched, on sunday night, one about a fat man in the park looking for love. i'll also take anything with humphrey bogart. |
Bogart ftw. The Maltese Falcon is perfect.
One night, TCM had Abel Gance night and they played J'accuse and Napoleon starting at midnight. I made it through J'accuse, which is 2 and 45 minutes silent, but I didn't even try for Napoleon which is 5 and 1/2 hours, silent. My roommate watched them both because it was the first (and probably last) time they were ever shown on TV and in restored form. |
i rented that in order to get my stepsister to appreciate movies beyond scary movie and date movie, and oh man was it a success. the big sleep is my favorite of his, though.
oh, i remember when those were on. i watched j'accuse but 5 hours is way too long for my sorry attention span. |
I've only seen a little of the Big Sleep, so I'm hoping it comes on during the fall.
