Hmm, not really much to report. I washed my car again this weekend, and noticed a few more scratches, which pissed me off quite a bit. I just can’t believe that so many people can be so disrespectful of other people’s property. Even more disturbing is that these people are old enough to be my parents and they are most likely someone I work with. Grrrr.

I did watch two movies this weekend. On Friday I saw Minority Report and on Sunday I saw The Bourne Identity. They were both pretty good, although I liked Minority Report better. Normally I don’t like a lot of futuristic films, but I figured out that is because I don’t like post-apocalyptic stuff, which is what a lot of these films tend to be. I like ones that are pretty much normal reality, just more high-tech. I suppose the utter destruction COULD be a reality, but I don’t like it to be as dark and depressing as that. I also don’t like how it always looks so cliched with tattered leather clothing and crumbled buildings and weird hairstyles. Anyway, Minority Report doesn’t have any of that, so it’s cool. Bourne Identity is another assassin action movie. It’s not bad, but normally I’m not into these sort of plots. However, it got higher ratings with me because it stars Franka Potente of Run, Lola, Run fame, and also because some German was spoken in it. I love movies that have German in them—especially if they don’t have subtitles and I am the only one in my group watching the movie that has any idea what is going on. :) Ok those are all my gratuitous movie insights for this week.

On another note, I’ve been watching a lot of Blind Date and Match Game lately. I’ve been watching so much Match Game, and loving some of the fun, predictable aspects of it, that I think I shall create a drinking game for it. I looked online and could only find one such game for this show. While it had some funny and true moments listed, mine will be better (I hope). Anyway, look for that soon, when I have time and remember all the things I love about the show that are drink-worthy. Until that time…..
