    it relaxes me and brings me joy and if i have a couple extra it gives me an excuse to laugh and do silly things and bring out the child in me, and if it doesnt do that, im drinking for the wrong reasons

    Cujo. Cause they completely changed the plot. Sadly I'd seen the movie first.. And it made sense, and was scary enough.. But coming from the stance of Faith that I do, the book scared the ever living SHIT outta me!

    Worst TVmovie ever?

    No I have not, they always try to over do it in movies, but I have seen Phantom on Broadway and it is amazing and raw as it should be.

    Not really, I only get 60 hrs at home a week right now and I have to work at least one day that I'm home so that really restricts my activities.

    I've got a work conference today then we have a fancy dress ball afterwards. It's with about 3000 other travel agents so these things are always huge (and messy)

    NFL playoffs! Oh and Bill Maher returns tonight and there's a new SNL tomorrow night. So lots of TV watching. Can't do much else because it's absolutely freezing here anyway!

    Will you be watching much TV? If so, what?

    I found Into the Wild enjoyable, but varying quite a lot for me. The variance for me is that they (probably in the interest of not making a 12 hour movie) cut a lot of VERY important information. Also, his death in the movie is from the sweet pea, but in the book it is from rabbit starvation. The movie skews time a bit and makes it seem as if he was at that trailer place (I can't recall the name) in Arizona for a long time, but in the book it stated about a week or so. (If memory serves.) There was a very important piece of information about him and the scene about his car in the wash-- I don't recall what it is at this point, but it would have been key to include it. (It would also be helpful if I could provide that as a concrete example. Sorry.) I wished that I had either read the book or watched the movie because now when I watch the movie (it was beautifully done) I think of all of the parts that are missing. I know. I know. It's what happens when a book is made into a movie. It kind of bummed me out though. I do own the movie and the soundtrack. In fact, I play the soundtrack at work quite a bit.

    Yes. January always feels like a new beginning full of possibilities. A time to hit the reset button. Nothing to be blue about.

    Oh yeah.. I am
    The only one though! However, with my dad getting worse with his condition, he spends a lot more time down in the media room with me, watching Broncos games with me. He even bought a Broncos t-shirt this year!! ( my dad just wasn't ever anything more than a baseball fan) so now we're watching the Broncos in the playoffs. But even if my teams don't win, I still love watching the playoff series.

    Do you follow more than one major sports team in each category? (I.E. I follow The Broncos, The Chiefs and The Packers in football, the Heat, I guess I'm following The Oklahoma Thunder now, in Badketball... Etc..)

    I only follow sports when it comes time for the Olympics or for the Super Bowl. For the Super Bowl, I really just want the snacks. I understand baseball and that is about it. Sorry.

    Did you or do you play sports?
