I'm not in the mood to see a four hour documentary on nazis

ABOUT EIGHT MINUTES AND TWENTY THREE SECONDS IN, TILL THE END:



I haven't posted here for a while and I'm going to blame a whole myriad of distractions for that particular neglect. I'm watching the end of Six Feet Under, which, for some reason, I never got to (I think all the bleak emotionalism and pseudo-realism were really getting to me; I ended up watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer instead). I'm insatiably hurricane-ing through The Walking Dead, which is becoming, far and away, my favorite comic book series to date; the melodrama and social commentary have this grotesque marriage and it all manifests itself in the flesh (I got goosebumps reading volume four the other day). I'm spending a lot of time avoiding papers. More or less, I'm procrastinating a metric-fuck ton of stuff. I'm still watching movies (although I'm a bit behind on my movie-a-day quota), and I'm still thinking about this place. Just, I haven't had the liberty or the imagination to post anything terribly worth my own time, let alone yours. So, I think, for a while, I'll stick to some simple "I liked, I didn't like" sort of posts and or something like that. I don't know, we'll see what happens.

Nonetheless, watching THE SORROW AND THE PITY Sunday and I couldn't be any more excited. It seems as if documentaries are really demanding a majority of my viewing time recently. I don't want to see SHOAH at all. Strange.

P.S. Someone should inspire me to write something worthwhile, eh? Eh?
