I’m squeezing an update in before the end of the month. This is my only week off before I hit the 9-5 again so I’m making the most of it and set the goal to make a new blog post every day. So, here it goes!
Loving: HBO’s Enlightened….
Amy (Laura Dern) has a spectacular meltdown at the office and then goes on a journey to find herself – beginning with the end of a stay at a yoga retreat in Hawaii. She strives for passivism, everyday awareness and Zen in a world full of frustrations and bureaucratic setbacks; all the while struggling with her own idealist persuasions bound by the trappings of debt and the will to “save” her drug addicted kind-of-ex husband (Luke Wilson). Who I have also developed a little crush on. I haven’t gotten to the end of the newest episode yet though so he still has time to ruin it. Just saying, he’s a drug addict thus, really good and doing dumb stuff. Check out the trailer! If you don’t have HBO, no worries, episodes are up on Side Reel.
Loathing: The media’s over-emphasis on and the public’s obsession with this reality non-sense all over TV now-a-days. Kim Kardashian this, housewives that. It’s all benign, pathetically shallow and a serious waste of time. I normally take the “To each his own..” approach but, this has just gotten ridiculous.
Lusting: JCrew’s Newest Introductions. I’m quite confident I could wear the first look for the rest of my life and be perfectly fine with it.
