To ring in the New Year this year, my body decided to shake things up and send me on a 7+ day vacation to internal function hell. I couldn't eat, things wouldn't stop aggressively forcing their way out of my body, and coughing led to a few Depends moments. It was great in that I could finally be the reclusive shut-in I always aspire to be and spend my days watching shows, but in reality that dream stopped being fun after hour #4, and attempt to hold down food #3. But I sure did watch a ton of stuff, and I still love Beat from Timber Kings. This is the other, much briefer list I wrote (from the passenger seat) and forgot about, while driving to our surf spot with my pal/Wellness Fairy shortly after. A drive I managed to make 3/4 of the way before yelling to pull over so my breakfast could make an emergency exit. I vaguely remember him yelling from the car if I wanted him to hold my hair, but I could be wrong. I think I also went for a big wave that day not because I was feeling gutsy, but because I was too tired to know what I was doing and pull out. I likely fell at some point. I guess I am just lucky I managed to stay awake:
Tim's Vermeer- A really rich man in need of a hobby spends like a year painting a fucking music lesson. I fell asleep.
The Armstrong Lie- Lance Armstrong told lots of lies and became the winningest of winners in competitive drug cycling. Also fucked Sheryl Crow.
Korungal- A bunch of American soldiers get shot at, it fucks them up, and then I fell asleep, but not because it was boring, but because the fever inside me had won. They were probably still fucked up by the end though. It was sad all around. Falling asleep likely spared me from crying from start to finish like I did with Blackfish. Oh boy, DO NOT watch that one unless you are prepared to be shattered and have a field of Corgis to wipe the oceans falling out of your face.
The Dark Side Of Love- Russians think Americans are stupid idiots. Their orphans feel the same.
The Interview- James Franco plays James Franco if he had a talk show, goes on a field trip to North Korea.
Jodorowsky's Dune- This is a guy who spent a decent amount of his income on LSD. I also fell asleep.
