::mind buzz::


Oh man, my mind is buzzed right now. It's like being drunk, but it's your mind, not you. It's the feeling I get after watching a totally great movie. Or reading an awesome book. Etc etc.

I just watched Waking Life over at Amanda's house (and the end of Hero ::Note to Self - watch the rest of Hero::). Oh. My. Gods. That was an awesome movie.

I had all these thoughts that I was going to write down when I got home. But now they seem... not as substantial. Like if I try to grasp at them, they'll just float further away. So I'm going to leave them alone until I watch it again. And next time, I'm sitting there with a pad of paper, a pen, and the Pause button at the ready.

I have a thing for "talking" movies. If characters talk the whole thing, no "real" action, just lots of philosophising, I will love the movie.

If I were stuck on a deserted island, I would bring a TV, a DVD player, a power source, and Waking Life, Before Sunrise, Before Sunset, and that one I saw at 3am on IFC that I forgot the name of but will never rest until I find out what it was!

Anyway. Yar. Good movie. I WANT MY THOUGHTS BACK!
