home alone

So tired. Long distance is not conducive to marital harmony during times of stress.

On to happier news. My mom's friend Shirley is visiting her today, so I'm staying at home and ( Getting Things Done )

If I have time, I'll write some of what I think about my own ADR experience, and see if it's anything I might be able to use for a paper for ADR class. [::snicker:: - when I typed this the first time, I wrote "might be able to sue". I love Freudian typos.]

Oh and I might finish watching Terminator 3.

Speaking of T3, I've actually watched quite a few good movies/shows lately. For example: Pirates of the Caribbean!! Woo-hoo! ( rambling re. PotC and Homicide: Life on the Streets )

Anyway. Now I'm off to actually do some of the stuff I said I was going to do.

El Tango de Marvin

Whenever I listen to El Tango de Roxane from Moulin Rouge, every single time I giggle at the line, "It's more than I can stand!"

I was watching the DVD extended version of the tango with Daniel. We were chatting, noting that the actor who plays Christian is the same guy that plays Obi-Wan Kenobi, talking about the dance (I described tango as "a dance that's sort of like a play-fight", because there's a lot of rather violent imagery going on there) and at one point Daniel asked, "Who's Marvin?"

"What?"

"Who's Marvin?"

"Marvin? I have no idea. Why are you asking about Marvin?"

"Because he just said it. Obi-Wan."

Blank look from me.

"He said, 'It's Marvin I can't stand'. Who's Marvin?"
