Simple Things

I have been so encapsulated by boredom this week. I come home and there's nothing to watch and there's nothing to do. I try to write but I can't. I go online and it's worse, there's no fun email, there's nothing to wrap my attention for at least 2 hours. It causes me to feel tired and then, I either want to eat/drink or just go to bed.

At work I was just the same even though I have a busy calendar next week, I can't seem to focus long enough to work the calendar. So, I surf and the worst part is, there's nothing good to surf.

So here I am. I figured that since Tuesday--which also happens to be Foreclosure Tuesday--is Keanu's Birthday and one of the busiest times in my office, that I may just do a little Keanu tribute (when has this journal not been about him) and just scribble about anything, letting the obsession unleash. Starting with how many of his movies I can stand to watch...aargh!


1. SPEED (yes, this is my favorite even though he despises it with a passion, and it is not what got me hooked I was hooked way earlier than this.)
2. DEVIL'S ADVOCATE.
3. The GIFT. (Keanu, so rough, so angry, so manly and some damn good acting)
4. Point Break. (The foot chase scene is a classic, he should do this more often)
5. Bram Stoker's Dracula. ( the accent was a little weak, but the passion scene with the 3 witches was intense and he had good intentions for the movie, besides it was Francis Ford Coppola)
6. My Own Private Idaho. (yes this was the second movie I saw him in and the one that sealed the deal for me)
7. The Replacements. (weak script but he danced and that weight on him was good)
8. Matrix, Reloaded & Revolutions (even though I haven't seen the last one I trust in his ability)
9. Love You to death. (dorky Keanu is good Keanu, it shows someone is having fun with the role)
10. Parenthood. (this was the first, something about this just made me know I was in trouble and I haven't let go since.)
