I can't think of a good movie I've watched lately, how sad is that? I watch a lot of Totoro.<br /><br />as for books, I just checked out a couple new ones at the library but I'm still working on the three I posted on milla's post about reading...so i better hurry up! as a matter of fact, my bed and books are calling.....<br />moonshinejunkyardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02401889178583608877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3702813992589008895.post-27493800003673112042013-10-26T15:14:53.737-07:002013-10-26T15:14:53.737-07:00Thanks for sharing that Eddie Vedder song- feels b...Thanks for sharing that Eddie Vedder song- feels bittersweet, one of my favorites feelings. <br />I haven't watched anything in a while. But I've been reading James Hillman's book The Soul's Code, On Character and Calling. Listening to Basia Bulat and Local Natives. Which is what I was listening to last year this time. I'm a bit out of the loop of new music. Despite the internet! That's why I enjoy posts like this.

The Shining ...Oh I am so excited to watch Room 237! The Shining is one of my all time favorites. <br />I've been listening to Bill Callahan's new album "Dream River". I've only given it one listen but I'm liking it so far. I think I've mentioned before that this time of year I always break out Connie Converse "So Sad, So Lovely". I will definitely make and send you a copy if you'd like! It's one of the most beautiful albums I've ever heard. <br />We've been watching random stuff when we get a chance. I saw "Pulp Fiction" and "Ed Wood" for the first time the other evening and enjoyed both. I am fascinated by Ed Wood now. We looked up some of his movies on YouTube and they are very similar to how they are depicted in the film.<br /><br />Katiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08446141715627868656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3702813992589008895.post-28293683801281714362013-10-24T18:20:45.067-07:002013-10-24T18:20:45.067-07:00Okay, I'm happy to tell you that I'm on (y...Okay, I'm happy to tell you that I'm on (yet another) Josh Whedon bender. I really only watch teevee either with C, which he's too busy for right now, or when I craft. I just stopped watching Buffy to watch Firefly for a spell. So witty. I'm also re-watching tons of 90s teen movies. The comfort food of TV. Listening to the New Neko Case and the whole oeuvre of Shearwater. I kind of forgot about them, but now I'm all about it. They might actually be one of my favorite bands. Speaking of which, maybe you and I need to meet up for a Deep Dark Woods Show ;) Millahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02078509975778101344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3702813992589008895.post-24514434576866141152013-10-24T17:59:16.025-07:002013-10-24T17:59:16.025-07:00The Shining is one of my favourite movies, of. all...The Shining is one of my favourite movies, of. all. time. I hadn't heard about Room 237, not sure if I want to consider The Shining as anything other than a great supernatural horror. I also like the book. Am interested though as to the crazy stuff noticed by the film buffs. We are planning to go to the Big Day Out (as far as i know it's an Australasian music fest) next year, just to see Pearl Jam.<br />xTeenyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14681405757848141786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3702813992589008895.post-50662224616385204492013-10-24T15:33:46.444-07:002013-10-24T15:33:46.444-07:00Yeah, I wouldn't say he seemed overly happy bu...Yeah, I wouldn't say he seemed overly happy but he appeared to more well adjusted than I thought he might be. "fun" isn't really the right word to describe all those docs :) <br /><br />room 237 wasn't scary just really interesting. Those people have spent quite a lot of time dissecting the shining and have noticed some pretty crazy stuff. Whether any of it's true is a mystery but that one was fun to watch. <br /><br />I'll have to check out your recommendations too :)annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12230558089276610469noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3702813992589008895.post-78144238651049893852013-10-24T14:54:03.710-07:002013-10-24T14:54:03.710-07:00aaagh! the photo of the girls from the shining! al...aaagh! the photo of the girls from the shining! always so creepy! was the documentary spooky?<br /><br />saw following sean too. i was a little saddened by how he seemed to be somewhat hardened or bitter. <br /><br />i recently had fun watching 'hemlock grove' on netflix...which i think was made for the 17-24 crowd...so apparently i'm reliving some fantasy there. good eye candy though!<br /><br />music wise, i have been listening to the album that edie brickell and steve martin did together, 'love will come for you'. came out earlier this year. it's been a long time since i've just put something on repeat, but i seriously love every song. <br /><br />thanks for the recommends, i'm looking forward to checking it all out. xoxoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
