Ghosts

By the way, this book is on clearance at Urban Outfitters, only $4.90. I was thinking about how people say how simple it is to tell if a guy likes someone, well it should be just as simple to tell if a guy does not like someone.

I went to study at the library again today, I already have a particular chair that I always sit in. I finally explored a section where they actually sell some of their books, movies, and music. I've never looked there before, but today was a good day. I bought the film Eulogy for 4 bucks and two books for a dollar each, Atonement and Running With Scissors. Both books are now movies, which I haven't seen either. Eulogy is a funny film with a lot of good actors. Many years ago, I was wandering in Hollywood Video and saw it and decided to rent it. The title struck me for two reasons, it is related to death and Tool has a song of the same name. Around that time I was amused by the number of films which share the same names as Tool songs. The Grudge, Undertow, Hush, Intolerance, Flood, Ten Thousand Days, okay I'm getting carried away.

So today, as you may have heard, Patrick Swayze died. I realized that a lot of celebrities that we have enjoyed in our time/generation, are all dying. It's all the timing, not that it's something bad in the air or whatever. This is just when we have to acknowledge that all the people that have entertained us, are getting older and their time getting nearer.

Hope you enjoy Running With Scissors. I have that one and a couple of his other books too; I really love Augusten Burroughs! A tiny obsession of mine for a minute.
Patrick Swayze is a sad one :( Many good times watching his movies. I think I'll have a day this weekend dedicated to Swayze movies.
