Jeri has been writing a lot more than I have, so I figured I should keep up with my own journal as well.
Saw Mean Girls With Miguel and Maria-Laura tonight. Surprisingly good movie, but my friend Jinn is correct, there is a strong jailbait flavour to the movie (although not as strong as New York Minute). Lindsay Lohan is 3 years younger than me, and she’s like, rich and accomplished. (this is her 5th movie)
I guess I shouldn’t feel too bad. According to the rule, the other person’s age must be half your age plus seven
. I turn 21 this July, and Lindsay turns 18 (OMG! We’ve the same sign!). My lower limit is 17 and a half, so Lindsay just made it.
But still, it feels kinda wrong.
Changing the topic here, I was talking to Jeri the a few nights ago, and was reminded of how good the writing in Lolita is (oh god, this is not good…) I planned on buying The Short Stories of Vladimir Nabokov today, but they didn’t have it at Trident, so I got Vintage Nabokov instead.
I re-read parts of Norwegian Wood last night (it was sitting on my nightstand). I really liked the bits in the middle, the conversations between Toru and Midori. I was in Porter Sq. on Friday, and I tried to go to Sasuga to get a copy of it in the original Japanese, but I found out that they moved all the way to Waltham. Sigh.
I got a dingus in the mail the other day, and now I can send files to my phone from my laptop; I’m still working on having it work the other way around. Once I get it going, I’ll post my ongoing collection of phone-cam snaps of Vespas in the city. By the end of the summer, I want to make a collage of all these Vespas.
