Today

Let's see. It was a slow day. I woke up and slept and slept and slept. Then I got up and went out and played with the horses a bit, then I slept some more. I don't like this sleeping thing. It's a nasty sign of depression.

I broke it off with Duane today. Kinda feel bad about that, but it's really for the best. I don't want to "drag his heart around" and I'm just not feeling it. I feel better having gotten it off my chest.

High point of my day...(I'm supposed to journal this, and it's kind of a good idea)...

I suppose it was when it first started raining and I was in town with Duane and it smelled so nice and it was really spring. I like that. I suppose it's not much, but it's something.

I took some pictures today. I'll share a few.

On Casino Royal:

Bond is bond. This bond is ok. He's not interesting, not really funny. He's kind of an asshole. And thus continues the 007 misogynist fun. Women are pretty poorly treated in the bond films. They serve as not much more than things for Jimmy to have sex with. Judy Dench plays a strong M, but sinch any trace of sexuality has been removed from her, M might as well be being played by Don Knotts. The other girls serve as the sex puppets Ian Flemming wrote the type to be. I also missed the whole gadgets thing. What on earth made this movie's creators decide to do away with that bit? It's really one of the most enjoyable aspects of the movies. Q, with his precognitive abilities is able to tell just what gadgets will come in handy on Bond's next outing and James will use each and every one of them. We see a quick bit when Bond gets his new car. He's got some crap in the glove box, but we don't really see what it is...and it turns out to be coincidental thing...won't tell what, cuz don't want to spoil.
