8\/23 Recap<\/strong><\/p>\n

Some quick notes before I’m out for the night to watch Love Actually…<\/p>\n

-Check out Jamie Taylor’s blog <\/a><\/span>http:\/\/jwt92.blogspot.com\/<\/a> . He’s an eloquent old soul who writes great poetry and has a lot of wisdom and insight for someone so young.<\/p>\n

-Speaking of new sites, Amber has created a web shrine to…Terri’s boobs. http:\/\/terrisboobs.blogspot.com<\/a> . The fact that I don’t find the fact that she made this site to be disturbing, is in fact, disturbing to me.<\/p>\n

-I’m reading My Dark Places<\/strong>, an autobiography by James Ellroy (LA Confidential), detailing his mother’s brutal murder, his turbulent life after and his efforts years later as an adult to investigate her killing. It’s a really quick read–it’ll probably have taken me no more than 7-8 total reading hours to finish by the time I’m done–but really intriguing and haunting. He’s really candid about his own personal hell; this book is ridiculously disturbing but so incredibly psychologically interesting. You have to give him props for his willingness to share. I met him a few years ago when he and Curtis Hanson were promoting LA Confidential. I was there to interview Curtis, who introduced me to him. I remember him being really tall with an intimidating presence. He was a nice looking man from a distance, but when he cast his gaze on you up close, there was something unsettling about his eyes…they were so penetrating and haunting that to this day, I don’t remember anything else about that night or interview but I still remember his eyes.<\/p>\n

-I’m also reading The Dive from Clausen’s Pier<\/strong> by Ann Packer, about a girl’s life after her high school sweetheart fiance is paralyzed in a diving accident. It’s a really rich novel about love, obligation, sacrifices and the choices a person needs to make for the sake of his or her own life journey. I highly recommend it.<\/p>\n

-Dubya needs to SHUT. THE FUCK. UP.<\/p>\n
