[Difficult day - spent the majority of it resolving problems, resolved all of them and got a "Good Job" from my boss who is not a woman prone to compliments.
So yay me. Also did my laundry or rather did my laundry the way most working New Yorker's do, which is get up bright and early (6:30 am), lug it to the laundramat, drop it off, then come back later, fork over some money, and lug it home again.
House was cool last night, but I missed approximately 20 minutes of it, because a close pal called me half way through, completely devastated over something personal, and I turned off the tv to calm her down. Didn't occur to me to tape until around the last 10 minutes or so, when the pal put me on hold to talk to someone else. So I caught the end and know what Stacy did. Also why she did it. What I don't know is what caused House's leg muscel to atrophy or die, and was the dead muscle causing the pain, if so why does he still have pain? Anyone out there know?]
Last night in between tv shows (ie. during commercials) I came up with my own film meme. It is a rigid, tough film meme, that may only be for film buffs.
Rules for the meme are:
1. In each category, name four films that you love and would want to own on DVD, already own on DVD or VHS, or would recommend to a friend to buy or see.
Films you consider A's.
2. The films must be accessible on DVD or in the theaters, they cannot be films that no one but you can find.
3. None of the films can be directed by George Lucas, or Steven Spielberg. You also are not allowed to list Lord of the Rings, although other films by Peter Jackson are permitted.
4. Try not list more than two films by any one director. In other words - you cannot list all the films the Coen Brothers or Alfred Hitchcock did. OR the entire Matrix triology. Of course if you are like me and can't remember the names of these frigging directors this may be a problem - I'm assuming I haven't, smack me if I have.
5. Try not to copy any of the films someone on your friends list has already listed. (ie. If you take this meme or gank it from me, don't use my choices, come up with your own.)
6. Explain briefly your choices.
Anyone Still with me? Or did you roll your eyes, and move on? Or just ignore me completely?
If so, here's the meme & my choices, cut for space considerations and to protect those who hate these things:
( Film Noir/Mystery/Suspense )
( Science Fiction/Fantasy/Horror/Western )
( Romantic Comedy/Comedy/Musicals )
( Dramas, straight non-genre, epics and classical work here too. )
