i made soup today ~ mmmm good. i'm also working on Eleison though i've stalled out due to a PhotoShop problem at the moment. i should rework the website. i should make sure the text is in order. i should do a lot of things. ughhh....

i should be washing laundry, but i don't feel like it (the story of my life). in fact, i don't feel much like anything at the moment ~ sorta burnt out from working on those scripts. what i wouldn't do for some Dr. Kracker about now.

last night's film fare was trevor nunn's Twelfth Night: or What You Will ~ i'm not much of a fan of Shakespeare in film. baz lerhman's Romeo and Juliet being an exception. i also didn't hate the modern version of Hamlet with ethan hawke (though apparently most people did). this one is definitely my favorite. a superb cast (with ben kingsley as feste and helena bonham-carter as fair olivia), and just a wonderfully overwrought score by shaun davey with some nice tunes to go along with it.
