"She will not wait for me anymore, anymore, why did I say all those things before I was sure?" - 'Gifts And Curses' - Yellowcard

Well I'm back in Limerick anyways after another pilgrimage to Cork. Boy. :-p Just like last time it was a good day, a wet day and a movie that Kitt didn't enjoy... But it was good overall, I like her blue hair even if she doesn't and aside from a strange encounter with a desperately unhappy bum named Simon in the park it was all sorta fun. The movie in question is 'The Village' by the way and I thought it was fair enough personally but my prettier companion for the day was massively unimpressed. Again. I will have no further input into the movies we go see apparently. And I really wanted to see 'Dodgeball' too. :-( So Kitt is still a good thing. Good for you Bunny! :-p

Anyway I bought a couple of CDs again too. Less Than Jake's 'Greased' where they just cover the songs from Grease which is fun. And the 'Spiderman 2' soundtrack which is excellent actually. So many bands that I like on one CD (Yellowcard, Dashboard Confessional, lostpropets, Ataris, Train etc) and a whole host of bands that sound like the kinda bands that I might get into (Hoobastank, Taking Back Sunday, Midtown, Smile Empty Soul) as well as a couple of groovy Danny Elfman pieces and a sadly poor Maroon 5 effort as well.

And speaking of 'Spiderman 2', in the last few days a couple of people that I wouldn't have put down as the kinda people who'd like super-hero movies have told me how much they enjoyed it. it kinda escaped me at the time but I'm just starting to realise how much of an impact the Spiderman story can have on people. I've always sorta identified with Peter Parker (as mentioned in one of my first entries here) but it's cool to see that it touches so many people (except for Dave R who I sadly now assume is a souless, heartless monster...), that the warmth and sincerity of it all, the struggle to do the right thing even in the face of so much hardship still gets to people. Maybe there's more hope for us all than I thought? Personally I still feel like I'm on easy street, everything is sorta coming together nicely. Quietly but nicely. Tonight I am gonna watch football, eat pizza and play some music. Tomorrow... I dunno yet, I was decide at a later date.
