back in the 'loo
Hm...
Somehow my alarm was off again this morning. Not a big deal. I'm getting back into the swing of things. What's really disturbing is that after noticing that it was 10:15 and my alarm hadn't gone off, I was in the process of rolling over and going back to sleep before I had the sense to kick my ass out of bed and quietly slink into work.
I suppose that what's dampening my enthusiasm is I'm not really doing much at work right now. Mostly getting organized again. That's not my favourite thing, really. That, and the office is quite empty right now. A bit of a murmur over in Support and the constant rattle of the ventilation system. No light-hearted abuse amongst co-workers. No keyboard clicking. Quiet.
I don't think I've actually watched a Quentin Tarantino movie all the way though. I've seen most of Reservoir Dogs. The last hour, say. I came away thinking it was interesting, but it didn't strike me as something overwhealmingly wonderful. I stood in line to see Pulp Fiction at the Princess a couple months after it came out, but was turned away just as I was approaching to ticket counter. Sold out. I never really tried too hard to see it after that.
So it was that I approached the new trailer for his upcoming film Kill Bill with a mild, casual interest. And, to be honest, the novelty of Uma Thurman doing wire-fu almost had me sold. But then I saw... just a glimpse... no it can't be... but it is! That's David Carradine! OMGDFG! David Carridine uttering cheesy Tarrantino dialog! With swords! I have to see this movie!!
