Memorial Day Weekend

What's happening peeps? It's Memorial Day weekend and I think I've stepped outside maybe...twice today? Actually, let me refine that a little bit. I've been out on the porch for awhile, but only a couple of times outside of the confines of my apartment. Everyone tells me that I should get outside and enjoy the weather -- but I just don't want to! I may go out tomorrow, but, as for today, I'm going to just sit here with my brain off. It's so relaxing.

I watched the movie Doubt this morning and I would probably have to rank it in the top 5 of my movies seen so far this year. Possibly cracking a top 10 All-Time List, if I had one created. There's an idea for a future post right there.

It stuns me how every time I see Phillip Seymor Hoffman in movies, I always make some sort of comment half way through that shows my adoration and sense of awe of him. He is great, especially, at the dirtier roles -- there's just something about the way he talks and the looks he has on his face when he's at his worst. But, the fact that he can single handedly hold up a romantic comedy like Along Came Polly just shows what kind of range he has as an actor.

And, I was pleasantly surprised by the performance turned in by Amy Adams. She played her part very well and when she spoke her piece about her life to Meryl Streep, it actually gave me chills. The ending I thought was well done, highlighting the doubt and guilt felt by Meryl's character over what had happened. I don't want to give away any spoilers for those who haven't watched this flick yet, but I was hoping it would go another direction and have something happen to the child.

This evening is packed with television -- Penguines and Hurricanes Game 3, Nuggets - Lakers, Mariners, Yankees won this afternoon. It has been a great day, I can only hope that I fall asleep in my bed tonight as opposed to on the couch. I don't really remember falling asleep last night, I just know that I woke up with the Spanish channel on. Alright, I'm out of here to finish watching the Pens game.

All you readers out there -- get out and enjoy the weather! I'll come outside sometime..I swear.
