Low Water Mark

My former tenant, Mike, SMS’ed me tonight to inform me that, “If you don’t hate me already, you’re going to hate me now.” I was watching Shaun of the Dead at the time (amusing flick) and immediately imagined Mike as a zombie, devouring my loved ones’ intestines.

As it turns out Mike went to see the opening of the new Star Wars movie tonight instead. At midnight. In Nashville (at least I don’t think he went to the next town, ashamed). Alone. Ticket for one.

As pathetic and uncharacteristically nerdy as that is of him, and as much as I detest the fervor that surrounds these kinds of films, I have to applaud Mike for saying, “To hell with what’s socially acceptable! To hell with deodorant, with girls! I’m going to see Star Wars tonight all by my freakin’ self!” Good for you, Mike. Here’s to doing what you like, when you like it.

    I haven’t the time for a full review now, since I’m near an unconscious state at the present moment (although some would argue that I am just acting normal). Nonetheless I will say that Star Wars: Episode III Revenge of the Filth, was indeed an enjoyable movie…. far more enjoyable than any of the previous two chapters in the prequel. So I will leave you tonight (this morning) with a searing image that, too, is far more enjoyable than Star Wars: Episodes I & II combined: Brace yourself for this culinary tour de force combining
    a turkey-chipotle meatloaf, twice-baked potato, with a succulent cucumber salad
