 luck is the lazy man's excuse

a rough weekend. i haven't much felt like talking or blogging. sorry.

i did manage to see "monster road" at the full frame festival this weekend, and went to the big party at monkey eye studio beforehand. it was so cool to see jim & brett basking in the glow of their success. their film really is great, even though we were all a little bleary-eyed by the time it ended at 1am.

today mary and i went to fowler's open house, ate grilled burgers, enjoyed a wine tasting and had free dark chocolate with earl grey tea mixed in. (oddly yummy stuff.)

she also succumbed to my vigorous arm-twisting and accompanied me on a tile-scouting trip. both home depot & lowes gave me good ideas, and i think i may go back tomorrow or monday and purchase enough so i can start the bathroom project next weekend. this, of course, is contingent upon my committment to a design. i think i'm close.

yesterday i watched "13 conversations about one thing" and i really liked it. i feel like it's been a while since i've seen john turturro in anything i've really enjoyed, so i was relieved when this didn't suck. and jeez, i still need to watch the commentary on the "donnie darko" dvd. and i've got "the road to singapore" coming in the mail monday. i hope signing up with netflix again wasn't a bad idea. i almost feel guilty watching movies when i've got such a big to-do list.

tomorrow i'm going to try to get a pedicure. my toes are winter-ugly. i'm also going to put together my firewood rack and order a little firewood for late-night springtime bonfires. and i may finally attempt to re-grout the towel bar in the shower.

or i may just end up lazing around with my boyfriend all day, because i think we could use some relaxing time together.
