Love is the triumph of imagination over intelligence.

I'm a great, sensitive, funny, intelligent guy. I know this. It took me a long time to admit this to myself, but I always suspected it. I wouldn't be attracted to me though.

I went to the movies the other night with my ex, who I see once in a while. She's a good girl and we didn't break up over my looks but rather my somewhat anti-social behavior. Well, she had some issues of her own and I tended to resent her. But she's great, and smart, and funny, and cuddly. She wrapped her arm around mine at the moves. She's so sweet. And she FINALLY grew her hair out. Most women should have long hair. My opinion. She had this Lawn Giland soccer-mom cut while we dated and it was nauseating. She recommended a few great books that I'll read soon. I love her as much as you can love a friend, you know?
We saw "Capote". The movie focused on his "in Cold Blood" years and the research he did on the book. Phillip Seymour Hoffman is such a great actor, he should be nominated for an Oscar for this role. The movie itself was interesting although I would have liked to have been shown more about Capote's life but I think they captured the essence. I was really looking forward to seeing how they portrayed his relationship with Harper Lee. As in "The Aviator" where the sub-story of Hughes' relationship with Katherine Hepburn was alone worth the price of admission, the interactions of lee and Capote were just as fascinating. Yet the movie didn't explore it as much as I would have liked.Plus Catherine Keener is another all time fav.

Speaking of dipsticks, run, don't walk, to the Tenacious D in the Pick Of Destiny website. Don't be a tool yer whole life. Get down with the greatest band on earth.
