So today I didn't have to go to work because we had a snow day! I like the whole prospect of laying in my bed all day doing whatever I want and still getting paid for it :D
I ended up officially waking up for the day around 10am. I watched the movie Bright Star which I found sort of boring and disjointed at times. It wasn't exactly what I expected...okay, but not as memorable or well acted as other BBC timepiece movies I've seen...
Next I watched all of the extras on the Michael Jackson's This Is It dvd. I'm sad that he never got to perform the show. There were so many amazing ideas and creative ways of doing things. MJ still had a great voice and the dance moves down pat. MJ was so influential on the entire production and if he didn't like something he wasn't afraid to speak his mind. I really appreciate MJ as an artist and am sad that he didn't get to share the concert with the world...also sucks for everyone else who worked so hard and never got to see their hard work rewarded.
Then I watched the movie Post Grad which was cute, but nothing fantastic. One of those, good to rent movies, but I wouldn't want to own it.
Throughout the entire day I managed to do a lot of staring out the window and even more thinking. The snow is so pretty as it's falling but within 48 hours it'll be gross and black and icky. That's the bad thing about living in a city. The snow gets nasty fast.
As for thinking, I don't know if it's the movies that triggered it or what, but I got to thinking about love and life and relationships and careers. What's the most important? What do they mean to me? Am I really living? When people say they love you what do they mean? When I say I love you, what does it mean? All deep questions... There's no definite answer for any of them and it really just gets me confused.
So essentially I have had a lovely, nonproductive, thoughtful kind of day. Too bad I'll be back to work tomorrow. It's really nice having an unexpected day off of work!
