Nundeanen! Or whatever that word was.

I saw the movie "A History of Violence" tonight. It's totally badass. My date was covering her mouth during the "graphic" parts, but I was laughing my ass off.

There's good reason for that - it stinks. :P
And have you seen the controls for it? Two 'blobs' and a joystick. One 'blob' for punch, the other for kick. The harder you hit the 'blob', the harder your character (Ryu) would strike.
I betchya the arcade cabinet was a maintenance nightmare.

Random fact:
Saw Woody Allen's What's Up Tiger Lily? on TCM.
"You're always thinking about sex! ...hey, look at the smokestack on that ship!"
All personal affairs* aside, Woody's a funny guy.

Today has been pretty flippin' awesome. No work, got my check, went out with Melissa again, saw a kickass movie, saw a play at a college (really weird, but whatever), and I smashed my high score on Tetris on my calculator, which was impossible for everyone else at school to even reach before. Yay!

Tomorrow, I take the SAT at 8:00 sharp. No me gusta.

Congratulations. I am bored, sick and happy. Finally heard from my boyfriend. My sinuses are kicking my ass. I was proud of myself today, this one guy in marching band was standing way too close to me and he wouldn't leave me alone so I bagged him.

Let's see, my car battery died for some reason last night at 8:30pm when i was getting out of work.  So i called a taxi to take me to the airport so i could rent a car for a few days.  $35 taxi ride for 10 miles!  Then i have the car towed today and it cost $85 for the tow 20 miles away!

SICK.
