lazy

i think i'm in one of those lazy phases. so far, i'm having difficulty waking up before 10am. not that i mind, really. i'm just diggin the low-motivation feeling right now, enjoying ignoring the world hurrying by around me. i watched starsky and hutch today, which was interesting as i've never seen the original and had no frame of reference, but i still got into the whole theme of the seventies/retro/cop tv show thing. there were plenty of other shows around that time and the very early eighties that i was reminded of. they riffed brilliantly on all the cliches and the comedy was well-timed and natural and saved the whole thing from being some sort of parody/spoof monstrosity (while not being one long music video like charlie's angel's).

ben stiller and owen wilson are my favourite comedy duo at the moment- everything they do together is perfect: OW's laid backness is the perfect foil to BS's nervy agitation. i don't subscribe to this whole "ben stiller is an irritating neurotic" thing, i don't even see it. even my gran liked zoolander and my gran does not enjoy that kind of comedy. she thought zoolander was sweet. i'd rather watch 1million hours of Ben than 1 hour of jim carrey, who i find repulsive and juvenile in a bad way

so anyway, after the movie i decided to go get a new wallet as the money was falling out of the old one which is a bad thing.. i ended up getting a sale copy of quake 2 as well (no. i can't afford it. i have no self-control. i suck at disciplining myself.), so i spent most of the afternoon playing quake. on god mode. that's when you cheat so you can't die. i have no compunction about doing this: i don't want to test my ability, i want to frag aliens and then shoot their dead bodies till they blow up and then blood goes all over the place.and hear the blood pattering onto the floor. which is weird since i can't even kill a bloody mouse without suffering pangs of guilt for years to come.

so this is how i feel at the moment. lazy
