des fruits and a pornstache

As much as I told myself I would never watch The Sound of Music, as much as I said it for years... well, I really like the damned movie (despite its' being a musical and all). So I'm becoming a cliche at the ripe age of 22, and it's getting on my nerves. Oh well.

Also, as I was telling someone earlier, the "flavor grenade" variety of a pluot (plum + apricot hybrid if you live under a rock) is quite awesome. It's crunchy and sweet and apparently only grows for about a month during the summer. wtf? This is not fair! I finally find a fruit I can really enjoy, and I find out that I have a month to enjoy it. What is this bullshit?

If I don't start looking like Brunhilde from all the pilates and cardio workouts I've been doing lately, there's going to be some serious confusion. As some of my friends have pointed out to me, why I'm not as tiny as a twig with the "healthy" eating habits and excessive exercising (*note: i spelled exercising wrong so I clicked spell check, and it gave me an option for "exorcizing- i reeeeeeally wanted to choose that spelling just to be a dweeb).... This lack of brunhildeness is confusing me.

Here's some news that I have both looked forward to hearing about and dreaded: the movie adaptation of my favorite books- The River Why and The Historian! The former is apparently in post-production and is a low budget version with William Hurt as H20 (the father, Henning Hale-Orviston). The latter is a Da Vinci Code-budget sized film that Sony is slating for a 2010 release. I'm hoping for a 2011 release if it'll make it better. And Tom Hanks better not be in it. Or Helena Bonham Carter or somebody else I'm sick of seeing. If they want to cast Stuart Townsend as Vlad, I would most definitely not be opposed to it, simply because he makes a seriously bad ass vampire. Plus I think with Vlad's ron jeremy pornstache mustache, it would completely bitchin'.

Alas little blog, go out into the cosmos where maybe 2 people will read you...
