men in tights?

Mikhail Baryshnikov is awesome.


the music makes me laugh because the guy singing sounds like he has a permanent belch going on. *sings like russian guy in video*

Was watching the movie that this came from (White Nights) yesterday because it was on tv and holy crap. He was stretching in this one scene- dude was standing on one leg, with the other leg pressed up parallel on the wall pointed upwards. I was like WHOA if i could bend like that I wouldn't be going to physical therapy right now.

Why am I posting about a Russian when it's St Patricks day? Protestants wear orange so apparently everyone in the US is Catholic. Very scary.

fuck you south pas

apparently not having a front license plate merits a $77 ticket. wow. that is just fucking stupid. I'VE HAD MY CAR FOR FOUR GODDAMN YEARS AND NOW YOU GIVE ME A TICKET???? HOW ABOUT, I DONT KNOW, GIVING THOSE ASSHOLES WHO RUN STOP SIGNS TICKETS. THAT WOULD BE A NOVEL IDEA. WOW. SERIOUSLY. AND HOW ABOUT FIXING OUR ROADS, BECAUSE MAYBE THEN PEOPLE WILL ACTUALLY GO TO OUR STUPID FUCKING RETARDED 'BOUTIQUE' SHOPS, BECAUSE THEIR CARS WONT BREAK DOWN FROM FALLING INTO A GIANT POT HOLE.

FUCK YOU. how about giving a ticket to someone who HAS A JOB.


UGH.

can't think of a title

Daylight savings can suck it. >_<

Don't get me wrong, I like there being more light, but I have an Eastern exposure in my bedroom window and sun at wee hours of the morning just really isn't fun for someone who takes sleeping pills and is a light sleeper.

I still really like 'Definitely, Maybe' if only for the fact that it has good people. It is a chick flick verging on family storytime but it has Isla Fisher and Kevin Kline so therefore it can't suck.

I got new shoes!!!!! Yay new running shoes!! Not that I'm running in them yet because my knee is all retarded and I don't think my physical therapist would advise any running at the moment. But I can't WAIT to go running again now that I've got new shoes. Not being able to run these past few months has been horribly difficult to deal with. I know I really only started running last July/August on a regular basis but it became a huge part of my life once I started. Once I had to stop because of my own negligence/ego/??.... we won't go there because it's negative.

I miss my kitty again a lot lately on and off. It's been over four years since he died but sometimes it feels like just yesterday. I love my other cat who is still alive but I never had the bond with him that I had with my other cat. Spooky was my pet, he was my birthday present from my parents when I was 10 years old. We bonded even he though he was out of his mind sometimes. He got calmer as he got older and that made it easier, but I always felt like he actually understood more than most cats seem to. It doesn't make much sense unless you knew him... he was more human in his later years than some humans seem to be. Anyway, I miss the little bastard and I wish he were curled up on the bed with me right now.

cheers,
kate
