This is the life

I decided to push the Fuck-It button and took Monday and Tuesday to just laze around the house. VACATION MMMMMMMYES. I've been on a sitting-my-ass-on-the-couch binge and it was great. I even watched three movies: Nine, Inception, and Hugo. Tonight we're watching Drive (after a day of working on car--ha!).

The transmission arrived yesterday, and now I'm ready to start tearing apart the Chevelle. I even cut off all my fingernails! We'll get started as soon as [livejournal.com profile] mckitterick wakes up. And checks his email. And we have breakfast/lunch.

VACATION MMMMMMMYES.

Yay for taking some downtime (http://www.lifehack.org/articles/productivity/the-importance-of-scheduling-downtime.html)!

and I'm look forward to reading about the teardown/install.

Also.. ENVY!

Good for you! FUCKIT BUTTON: ENGAGE.

Yay for you working on car! Yay for car-work that is not being done by me, and is therefore much more likely to be enjoyed!

Aww yeah for vacation laziness. :) How was Hugo? I've heard good reviews, but I've been whelmed by the idea of seeing it. (By the way, though, 21 Jump Street is WAY funnier than it has any right to be - the Brit & I watched that Monday too.)

Have fun working on the car!

I liked Hugo. It was beautiful and well acted, even though I wanted to punch the girl in the face the entire time. This feeling did not change, and was in fact, got stronger, when I watched her interviews in the special features.

We came *this close* to renting 21 Jump Street. Maybe we'll go ahead and get it when we return these. It looks like one of those movies that falls into the "I really shouldn't be laughing at this but OMG TEARS" category.

There is some pretty juvenile humor in it, some of which falls flat, but I would definitely watch it again.

Nine, as in the cartoon? I hated that movie. Pretty, but a shitty, soulless knockoff of LotR, iirc....

Nope, the brilliant musical!

Ah, I don't know that one.

Nope, the musical. I love it! Click on the link and that'll take you to the IMDB page.
