Thanks to brokenbeatnik and GregWeed (not to mention the usual phillipetheotter going-on) for great old times this weekend. Biggest Friday partey evar, me finally hitting a bad karaoke match-up Saturday (it wasn't hard for me to finally find myself out of my range), and the medium-sized bash with the big-sized Mediterranean cookery at the Weed/dovienya place (with the mystery entrance ways).
Yeah, so I did go out every night. I'm just not finding much to blog about otherwise. I feel like I'm in that mode where the end of the year is racing up like a meteor attached to a shinkansen which is on crack, some baaad Thailand crack. Do you all get that time-rush feeling at year's end too? I think it is exacerbated by 1) the cadre of year-end holidays, 2) other things, like school semesters, that run roughly parallel, 3) the calendar-change brings up the whole "time" concept in a way that, say, April-turning-to-May does not.
I thought Borat was okay, but this Great Historic Social-Commentary Movie hype I've seen in reviews is getting out of hand. I was surprised, and a bit disappointed, how much of it is fictionalized, rather than like the TV show (which provides much more social commentary simply due to the greater amounts of non-fictional interviews in it). And it's funny, provides some great lines for sure, but is not THAT great. Don't get me wrong, it is good- but I dunno if it's better than the completely-overlooked Beerfest (which also trades well in bad behavior, shock humor, and broad social/ethnic stereotypes, btw).
