2AM Traffic

I watched Lost in Translation before I went to bed last night. That movie makes my heart beat very fast. Every time I see it I'm struck by the contrast between what Coppola shoots from high above the city and what she shoots from the ground. It's an outstanding thematic technique.

I went to HMV today and picked up season 7 of The Simpsons since I've exhausted my Seinfeld collection. I also picked up Ben Folds' new album along with the special edition of Casablanca.

My goals today: read 100 pages of Gulland, study a chapter out of my French textbook. The second presidential debate is on tonight.

I'm turning 29 in one month.
