No Stranger Song Written
So I just finished reading the fifth book in the Dark Tower series by Stephen King. Its called Song of Susannah. He is a one of a kind author. I won't tell you much about it, so as not to ruin it for people who want to read it (though I wouldn't recommend it to most). It is nice to know that there is a writer out there who just lets it flow from his mind. He doesn't try to fit into some clever formula or outline. This series has really given me a lot of inspiration and motivation to continue my own writing. If I write something worthwhile it will make its way up here, I promise.
In other news, I recently downloaded and have begun messing around with Fish Tycoon. Why I don't go buy actual fish and a tank I don't know. I don't know if I really like the game or not but I keep staring at the little fish swimming around on the screen. I ever felt sad when I killed one. Something is very wrong with my brain.
Movie review time! Must Love Dogs actually turned out to be a pretty good movie. I originally picked it up because I seem to have a strange affinity for John Cusack movies. I don't really know why but it seems like every time I decide to go buy movies, and I pick up two or more, he's in one of them. Anyway, I don't know why but I really liked this movie. The writing is solid, the guy keeps looking like an idiot and a complete spaz, people rediscover a chance at romance... Ok, so its a like most other romantic comedies but very well written. (Aside from the stereotypical gay couple and their gay/not too gay debate.) All in all if you're in the mood for a good laugh and some romance, this is the way to go. 8/10.
Just to let you know, I tend to hop around a lot. My best friend and co worker is always asking me for context. So be prepared for sudden leaps to different topics and the for me to leap back again. I can't help it...
Last thing today. If you haven't heard of The Fray, you really need to check them out. If you like either Coldplay or old Lifehouse stuff you will like them. They started here in Colorado and were one of our best kept secrets. Now we share them with the world (or a major label noticed them, you pick.) There are samples of their songs on the website. Nice poetry in their lyrics and solid musicianship (they use a piano and everything!) And if you like them please support them and buy their CD. They could use the support.
That's it for now.
