Viruses, viruses, viruses. No, fun indeed. Sometimes I wonder why we pay so much attention to a virus on our computer, but not in our lives. Like, we spend so much time and energy trying to get it fixed, we pay money, or spend hours working on it when we are drowning in our own virus-like vices.
Gosh, its too early to be trying to think like this :P. I should be doing school right now. Blasted computer!
haha...anywayssss...
You know, I was planning on writing something uber hilarious the other day, but it seems like I've forgotten. Life comes at you fast, no?
Know what movie I love? Paris Je'tamie. If you've never seen it, you should. It's one of those random things that reminds me so much about how simple love really is.
For instance, there is this scene in Big Fish that I simply love. And if you've never seen Big Fish, go watch it. Now! But the scene, as bizzare as it sounds, is the main character laying submursed, fully clothed, mind you, in his bath tub. He is close to the end of his life and his son is exsasperated with all the wild, fabricated stories his father tells.
His wife arives on the scene, smiling down at him. He comes up for air and claims "I was dried out." The way she smiles, to me, just seems to accepting, so loving. Many people would be werid about that, and yet, she isn't.
Instead, she takes off her shoes and slips right in there with him. As...bizzare as it seems, that has always been a picture of real love to me: accepting and loving, even in the werid stuff.
Alright, I should go. I'll be back in a few days to write something actually amusing on here. :P

okay so now that i've actually READ your post, i feel you deserve a real comment (at first i was just attracted by the pretty italicized words)
but anyhoo, i should really watch Big Fish again, because reading about that scene reminded me of how much i loved that movie! and you are right, that scene is true love! i'm trying to think of what scene it is that defined love for me.. but i can't remember :(
anyway i shall this notoriously long comment! ciao :D
I need to watch Big Fish, and the movie you mentioned at first in your post (the title has already slipped away from my mind ... Sorry!)
J.J. Abrams was talking about the scene, and he said the same thing! I agree with you both, it paints a picture of true love. Not the romantic stuff, but love, acceptance, etc. etc.
I thought you were going to be back in a few days?? :(
