Just did some last-minute section-switching and paid for summer classes. History of American Film and Beginning Keyboarding. Summer’s looking shinyyyy, y’all.
Apparently the pain in my jaw is caused by stress, quoth my new dentist. I find this ironic since this is the least stressed-out I’ve been in years. Unless boredom counts as a source of stress. Got loads of that. My proof: I am sneaking looks at The Black Swan in my spare few minutes of library time. It is not especially good, but I want to see how the prince will get his comeuppance.
THE BLACK SWAN’S AUTHORIAL PERSONA: Behold, I re-write Swan Lake! And I am sarcastic! I upset expectations! I am ironical! SARCASM! This is awesome! This is revolutionary! This is... fantasy from the perspective of the bad guy, with sarcasm!
ME: This is totally unsubtle. Self, take note.
( Adventures at the Getty Villa, or, Hot Marble Dudes in Malibu, and Movies )
And then I went back out and bought pie.
ETA: Not the best picture, but: Phanokrates!
