Big Bang Theory season 2 bloopers
Aww, they're all so adorable. And I don't know how Jim managed to do the whole "rock, paper, scissors, lizard, Spock" sequence, this shit is twisted.


Anyway, I freaked out a bit today because I was rereading The Virgin Suicides by Jeffrey Eugenides, and I was listening to some music, just chilling out in my garden. And as I came to the end of that wonderful book, the song on my ipod was Doors Closing Slowly by the Manic Street Preachers and I swear to the gods, I heard the quote at the end of the song AT THE SAME TIME as I was reading it. The quote is "In the end we had the pieces of the puzzle, but no matter how we put them together, gaps remained, oddly shaped emptinesses mapped by what surrounded them, like countries we couldn't name." and in the song it's an extract of the movie, but I read the sentence (in french) at the same time that it was playing. Weeeeird. I didn't even know the quote in the song that from the Virgin Suicides, it's been a while since I read the book or seen the movie.
So yeah, my life is crazy and the gods are watching over me. Or maybe Richey James. Gasp!

My life is so uneventful, I'm so sorry to bother you. (feel free to answer the title btw)

RIP Michael Jackson. You were a crazy man but you had music in you.

AHOY!
It feels so good to be home! The past week was slow, very boring and quite uneventful, except for Wednesday's evening where we went to the theater, to saw a very loose adaptation of The Idiot by Dostoevsky. It was amazing! Four hours of mind-blowing theater, I can't even begin to describe it. It was extremely...decadent? Violent to say the least, with rock songs, actors shouting and covering each other with paint and a guy who wandered completely naked all the time. I guess it sounds stupid but it was really original, changes from the classical, boring french plays.

The actor on the photo was playing the Prince Mychkine, aka the idiot. He's an actor that I thought didn't know but I remembered in the middle of the play that he used to be in a comedy show that me and my twin loved to watch a few years ago. I'm so glad I saw him in a play :) He was amazing, shifting from completely absurd and insane, jumping all over the scene and then really dramatic and moving.

Tonight, I also went to see The Boat That Rocked at the cinema, my mum really wanted to see it because it's the story of pirate radios in the sixties and she used to listen to them all the time. Radio Caroline and all :)
And it was great! Hilarious, with excellent music and brilliant actors. Bill Nighy is looking sweet, Rhys Ifans is a real dandy, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Jack Davenport, Nick Frost, Kenneth Branagh, Katherine Parkinson, Rhys Darby, Chris O'Dowd...they're amazing together <3

Any of you guys saw it? It made me want to listen to some 60s tunes again. Well, more of them anyway, it's such a sweet homage to music. Makes you proud to be a pirate, a modern day one, who doesn't have to get a boat but just a computer :)
The only weird thing is that there were no tracks of The Beatles but I guess they didn't get the rights :/

And I'm going to see Star Trek tomorrow! Yay! I'm so thrilled, I've only heard/read good reviews :D

Alain Bashung is dead.
Fuck.

I turn on the radio for the first time of the day and what do I hear? Ashes to Ashes by David Bowie of course. Just three hours after watching the first episode of Ashes to Ashes, the Life On Mars spin-off. My reaction was exactly the one of Noel Fielding in the picture of my mood theme.
Things like this give me the creeps xD
