"The road less traveled is about to get some company"

i woke up today with my dad, yet again playing his guitar. its so nice to hear him play again. today i had the day off work, and i was sooo happy about that. today i watched the opening of the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games, it was really good to see everyone united together.
later on today i watched one of my favourite new movies; Moving McAllister. i saw the trailer a while ago, and i really love Jon Heder and Mila Kunis. she is so pretty and she only tries to be herself, shes great. its a really odd movie about a guy who is a ladder-climbing law intern from miami with four days until the bar exam. desperate to score points with his boss McAllister, he commits to a favour he can't afford. he finds himself in charge of a rundown removals truck headed to L.A. with his boss' Hollywood-bounce niece and her pet pig. during the movie they meet a brilliant hitch-hiker, assorted local yokels, rick finds love, life and maybe himself in this trans-American road trip from hell. the film has some amazing dream scenes. Ben gourley plays a typical guy, tall, great teeth, wears glasses, kinda nerdy, soft voice, and gets pushed around. mila kunis plays Michelle, a fun loving, wild, polaroid taking girl.all the way through the movie Michelle keeps taking polaroids of her whole journey...i really need a good polaroid camera. above are some of the polaroids from the movie; (all movie images are from Google)later on i was playing around with my tatty devine jewellery, i really want some new jewellery from tatty...i really like lots of things including Gilbert & George Large Glasses Necklace, which may i add are amazing. i will have to make do with the jewellery i have got at the moment, which isn't too bad, i do love my jewellery, but its hard when you see all these wonderful bits and pieces that you would love to have. :)

Jon Heder is brilliant! And not just in a 'huhuh Napoleon Dynamite is a dweeb' way, he's ace! I like your mug too, reminds me of my Skydancers circa 1997 mug. Bad luck on the tic-tacs though.
