hey, monkey
i went to see King Kong Saturday afternoon. the movie started at 4:15, the cinema attendant told me it'd be over by 7:40 - "it's over three hours long, including credits." i walked out of the show at 6:35; the film was that bad.
okay, that was a lie. i walked out of the show at 6:35 because i had tickets for Handel's Messiah at 7:30 and had to be at the Philharmonic by 7:00.
well, it was half a lie. because the film really was that bad. without giving much away, i'll just say that a lot of things that don't make any sense happen. "it's a movie of miracles," i'd remarked to Christina on the way to the concert.
today i woke up past noon again. spent the rest of the day being a little bit productive (i did my laundry, the dishes, and cooked dinner) and a lot unproductive (watched The West Wing DVDs and got started on Resident Evil: Outbreak, which sucks a little). tomorrow university starts up again. i have a string of things to do starting 9am, which includes getting a Council Tax exemption certificate from the university to show to the Council's Office, because i received a court summons on Friday for January the 23rd - apparently i owe the Council £225+ in council taxes, except the thing is that i'm exempt from council tax because i'm a student. so hopefully showing them my tax exemption certificate means that i won't have to go to court, which means that i won't have to hire a lawyer, which will save me a lot of money.
plus, work. i'm way behind on that.
