Nat did come over on Thursday night, and that was cool. We ate wood-fired pizza, watched the live action version of The Tick, and did the whole 'hanging' thing 'till about one am. Which made me a tired, tired serf.
Last night, Robin and I saw Troy, to be honest, I didn't think it was particularly special. It certainly looked good (though the lingering, slow-mo' shots of Brad got a little tiresome), and some of the fight scenes were greatly enjoyable, but for me, it didn't really pull together particularly well. The film was certainly not a complete loss however, one standout was Eric Bana, I am increasing impressed with his performances.
The title of this post is Now I understand, and it refers to something very special that happened today...I bought a 40GB iPod. Actually, what it refers to is the fact that our role in society is to be a consumer, and that therefore we should only feel fulfilled when performing that role, ie buying expensive crap...ahem.
Sorry, got a bit carried away there, there is a point (actually, there are a few), and that point is that I'm quite glad I bought an iPod.
Hooray.
mmmmm expensive crap mmmmm
Welcome to the world of Ipoding
Lukcy you rich person who can afford an ipod. Oh and about Troy. Didn't you just love the Bold and the Beautiful staring of into nothingness whilst looking brave and strong hilarious. Brad Pitt did it a lot.
