Ah, the excitement of the shopping mall LOL. Went down to one of the Westfield's today to see a movie (Unleashed, Jet Li, Morgan Freeman, Bob Hoskins) and had a couple of thoughts I thought worth putting down - well, worth putting down in this blog, anyways. Whether that's a mark of quality or not, leave up to the readers - at least I'm 100% me at least (lol, sorry feeling a bit maudlin about it all here).
There was a cute woman on the 'ripping tickets' desk, or whatever the technical term is. at the cinemas. Curly black hair, and rectangular shaped glasses, thick black rim, halfway down her nose. Very cute, and that's all that I can allow myself to say on that LOL - yeah, 100% me, yeah right, 100% what I feel I can write without getting into trouble perhaps. But that halfway down the nose glasses look, very nice.
After the movie, which was OK and had a much more emotional, aka girly, plot than I have seen in a kung fu movie before - eh, what can you expect from those crazy Europeans LOL - after the movie, I did a bit of window shopping.
Window shopping in the main because I want to save any real spending to the time that V is up in Brisbane - have something to spend a day on perhaps, as well as all the other bits and bobs. I did buy a DVD though, Garden State, my second fave movie I have seen this year, after Closer. I saw Hotel Rwanda on sale, and thought badly of myself, the whole liberal white guilt thing over the whole 1994 genocide thing - I should buy it, but dammit, I was torn between There's Something About Mary and Con Air LOL. And then saw Nine Songs already on sale as DVD - at HMV. Hmm, shouldn't that be in an adult shop perhaps? The thought of Hotel Rwanda and Nine Songs being one shelf apart, it was surprising they didn't spontaneously combust LOL.
One thing I miss about being in a couple, and no, I'm not on my way back to Canada to rekindle things, is the whole shopping for a household thing. Seeing nice things and being able to make a decision as to where to put it in the house - for instance, candle holders or coloured glass flower pots or dishes. I went into Dusk, a candle shop, at the mall and thought that piece or other would be nice to buy - when you are single, you only go for usefulness with your household, if you are living with people who are not your partner, eg, flatmates, parents and the like, then you don't feel as if you can impose your fashion and furnishing tastes on them.
I want to buy candle holders and good dishes and flower pots and the like, dammit LOL. Any other singles out of relationships ever get that feeling, or am I just too damned domestic?
Avoided the clothes shops like the plague, I knew that if I saw something nice I wouldn't be able to resist buying it. And I must must must buy some pants before buying another shirt LOL.
Apart from that, has been a quiet weekend - was a good playlist on Rage last night, starting with Girls and Boys from Blur and Loser by Beck - I remember when that came out it had one hit wonder written all over it. And now Beck has released about his fifth or sixth album or so.
Apart from movies, shopping and Rage last night, oh, also watched the rugby, first time in 33 years that Australia have lost four matches in a row, apart from all that has been quiet. Been Dungeon and Dragoning computer gaming most of the time when not netting.
Turkish Grand Prix almost about to start - mmm, Istanbul, remembering back to 1998 and visiting there. Vrrm vrrm indeed.
