today was rough. luckily, i had some buoyancy from my internal soundtrack and eyes pointed towards evening plans.

WATCHING:

i loved amanda seyfreid (she was the main reason i wanted to see this) and glenn close was, of course, superb. the whole thing was a bit over-the-top, so besides being a bit creeped out at times, i really enjoyed it. this isn't really the type of movie i am usually attracted to, but i left with toes tapping, wanting to dance, and that's a great sign.

LISTENING:

"American Boy", by Estelle, featuring Kanye West. the first time i heard this- not so hot. but it's grown on me, and today it's been all i wanted to listen to. and, yeah, i could be turned off by kanye west's enormously huge ego, but generally it goes with rapper territory, and i think his music is sweet.
