Hmmm,

it has almost been a month since I posted anything. I didn't realize.

So, you know that I like to write in bullet points... Here are the updates/highlights of the past month:

- Visitations! Thank you to all those who have visited me in the past months, it's always such a joy. I haven't been able to even begin to feel lonely. I truly do appreciate the visits.
- New/Old job: I am now an "official" employee of the county of San Diego, working at the District Attorney's Office. It's strange. I still basically do the same thing - work on the Prisoner Reentry Program and Literacy Intervention Program - but I'm also doing some more media-related writing, so this is exciting. I think I might soon get to start pitching short articles to community papers. Eek.
- Movies: I've watched a lot of movies recently, mainly because we have Netflix. 'House of Sand' was beautifully shot and the acting was stellar. I, of course, enjoyed 'Paris, Je T'aime'. 16 short films by 16 different directors. Stories all set in Paris. How could I not love it? 'For Your Consideration' was hilarious. I LOLed throughout the movie. 'I'm a cyborg, but it's okay' is a romantic comedy directed by Park Chan Wook (director of 'Old Boy'). The story was so-so, but it was a visual treat.
- Mind: Last week was a bit difficult because I began to feel really tired again. When this happens, I feel overwhelmed by everything. I hate that uneasy feeling of hanging on. I don't have a very strong grip. But, yesterday I slept. A lot. Maybe too much. Today, I feel better. I want to be productive today.

I'm going to the swap meet with Andrea today, then we're going to watch 'Ocean's 13'. We had a good creationism vs. evolution talk yesterday.

Song of the day: "All the Words" by Kutless. Strangely, I heard it during a Scrubs episode. I was surprised to hear a Christian song on the show. I like the way they used the song. I like it when shows/movies use music well. It makes me happy. I think I've watched movies simply because I liked the music in the trailer. I can think of two movies immediately: 'Garden State' because of "Let Go" by Frou Frou and 'Closer' because of "The Blower's Daughter". I digress.

Okay, I'm off to start my day.
