chicago at night
hooray, the week is almost over.
lots of work has occurred, poker on tuesday was a bit different than the few weeks of five guys. There were close to 25 people playing over the course of the night... pretty crazy.
wednesday when i got home i watched most of chicago. it's quite good. it's weird because really, it's just the musical in musical form on screen, but i'm not complaining about it. catherine zeta jones-douglas is awesome. they should've done the hanging scene differently. I'm sure there are tons of alternate cuts lying around, and i'm sure one would've been more effective than the one they went with. there was something too "german prison camp" about the real world shots. they should've had the actual fall be the stage set.
great story too, that chicago. i think by its live nature, the show was better. in your face and what not, but perhaps i'm kind of limited because i'm watching it in the smallish theater of my home, this specifically on my pc (although today i got svcds working on my dvd player).
i had to shut it off during the trial at the end because i went down to mary ann's to meet some bostonians for dimo's 21st birthday. good time, dimo actually had 21 shots, and remained pretty capable to keep drinking... an impressive show. I got drunker than i had planned, but it was a fun time. this morning didn't hurt too much actually.
today i got katie to watch two episodes of twin peaks. i think i'm one episode away from getting her hooked. Whether it's a "this show is pretty good" hooked or a "i hate it so much but i have to see what happens" hooked i'm not sure, but in the end, all that really matters is that i have someone to watch it with.
grabbing 8 mile now, and hopefully the second disc of confessions. saw maybe the opening minute of confessions today, looks... odd.
oh yeah, i went to newbury after work with a mission: buy two cds. the latest from hood and also this pulseprogramming disc. and maybe anything by couch if they stocked it. they had nothing and i was made sad. i sort of don't want to mail-order though. i may have to... my ear needs something new, and i don't think i'll see these albums posted.
yay for friday tomorrow.
