Movie

And the movie of the day, you ask?

Empire Records. A day in the life of a record store on "Rex Manning Day". Rex is a washed up pop star arriving to sign autographs. One employee (Liv Tyler) loves him, the rest loathe him. Renee Zellweger, Anthony LaPaglia, Maxwell Caulifield, Rory Cochran, and Robin Tunney star.

Ode to Joy

Ode to Joy
On her birthday

The nerd side of the "pod"
Doors open, radios on
Friday nights with KDWB
And books, always homework, you and me.

The Perpetually Single Club
You've left it to me.
You wed James
And moved to Tennessee.



Have a wonderful birthday, Joy!

I Found It!

After mentioning a beloved book of poetry from my youth, many of you offered ideas of how to find it. So, I went to Amazon.com and started looking. After reading a Table of Contents, I think I've found it. Poems that I copied onto bookcovers at school and then forgot. Sigh.... I'm so psyched!!! As soon as I get it, I'll share some of it's "Greatest Hits."

WOO HOO!!!!!

Thanks for the help!

Me and You

My whole Sunday was spent either at church, sleeping, or watching various movies. I saw the IMAX movie Greece in the afternoon and spent the whole time trying to keep my eyes open (moderate success). Then, I went home and took a 2.5 hour nap.

By the time I woke up, it was 6 and I figured I really, really should correct the tests that I gave a week ago before vacation. So, I popped in a movie and proceeded to ignore the tests. Subconsciously, I knew I wouldn't get the tests done. Oh well.

The movie, however, was great! See below....

Movie of the Day: Me and You and Everyone We Know. I love movies with quirky characters who take an ordinary moment and make it odd. There are poignant moments of human connection, cute kids with odd thoughts, and fun all over. There are surprises too. This movie isn't for everyone, just to warn ya. Don't rent this with your grandma unless she's one cool chick, k?

March

We are three days away from the lovely month of March. March is a long month and the only one that's a verb. April, May, June, and August are all names and May is an adjective, or adverb, or something.

The verb "march" implies a lot of energy. You can't be sluggish; you have to stay in line and lift those knees. In these Northern parts of the world, this is not so easy in the cold and snow. So....

I propose that we change the name of the coming month to "Trudge." That's a more truthful name and sounds okay with January, February, Trudge, April,....

If you think about the "30 days have September, April, June, and November, all the rest have 31 except February...." song, the months left out are: January, March, May, July, August, October, and December. May, October, and December all have holidays on or near the 31st, giving us something to look forward to (even if it's only a barbeque). We would happily extend July and August another week if we could, so there's no problem there. We're left with January and March for the long-ies. We survived January for another year, so if we could fix March (I mean Trudge), we'd be fine.

What do you say?

Movie of the Day: Little Women. The March family in New England. It captures all of life's ups and downs while teaching good morals. Kirsten Dunst as a major twirp. Christian Bale as a hottie.

Good Quotes

I love quotes. If you can say something concisely and get the meaning across while making people think, I get jazzed. I have approximately 25 quote books. Here are a couple quotes that stand out this evening:

Freedom lies in being bold. ~ Robert Frost

The more peace there is in us, the more peace there will also be in our troubled world. ~ Etty Hillesum

:)Becca

got snow?

Snow can be quite beautiful. It's especially cool at night, for some reason. When moonlight hits snow, it turns it into a million little diamonds blanketing the world. Snow clumps on trees and looks like frosting. When it falls slowly, it makes the world slow down. Maybe it's some yet-to-be-discovered law of physics or something.

By sunlight, snow can be too bright. Too pure. But by moonlight, it's captivating.

Movie of the Day: Heart & Souls. Kinda an obscure movie, but really interesting. Four (or is it 5) people get on a bus, which crashes. They are suddenly ghosts who hang out with a little boy. It's funny and has great music.

Delayed Re-action...

In case you haven't noticed, I'm one of those weirdos who blogs at like 5:30 in the morning- BEFORE the butt-crack of dawn. Not so much this week because of vacation and REALLY not today. I have spent the past two days in the Twin Cities frolicking with my Visa. It was lovely, though not too devastating. (When I got home from Sundance, I told myself that I'd have to lay on the floor before opening the bill. That way, I could pass out safely.).

Any way, I was with my folks who also like to exercise their Visa cards in the Cities once in a while. We're driving along, heading to Forest Lake and subsequently home, when we get an alarming call. The weather is TERRIBLE in Duluth and we should think about getting a hotel for one more night.

Our first reaction was "Huh? We don't believe it!" It was super sunny and only a little chilly all morning. We'll be fine. So, we got almost all the way home with no snow. Then, it hit. We saw a couple cars on the shoulder. Another one upside down in the meridian, and a lot of show-offs speeding along. Luckily, we were in a Subaru with All-wheel Drive and were fine.

So, that was my mini adventure today.

How about you? Any good weather stories?

Movie of the Day: Keeping the Faith. I love that a priest and a rabbi are friends. People who are jazzed about religion, but don't shove it down other people's throats. Cool.

Stay warm!

Alias

I'm probably one of the last people to start watching Alias. I now own all of the season out of DVD but I haven't seen this season. Unfortunately, I see the reviews and it looks like it's good that it's ending this Spring. Either way, I really enjoyed the first three seasons. One of the main reasons is Michael Vartan. I've liked him ever since seeing Never Been Kissed (about 10 times) and he's amazing as Michael Vaughn in Alias. The tension between them! Wow.

One of my favorite Vaughn aliases is above and I have it as my desktop background. Sigh.... Any way, if any of you out there in Cyber Land know Mr. Vartan, please let him know we love him.

Movie of the Day: Rent. Saw it last night. Very powerful and sad.

The Next Step

My best ideas usually come to me while I'm praying or sitting still. When I find an idea that I really like, I usually end up following through with it. Right now, I'm waiting for a new idea to jazz up my otherwise mundane life. It might be a project, trip, hobby or who knows what. For now, I'm in limbo.

How about some stream of consciousness for ya?

Limbo.
Slake's Limbo.
I can't limbo.
Limbo rhymes with bimbo.
Bo and Luke Duke (tv not movie)
Rosco P. Coltrain
Rosco Pico Train (what I thought his name was)
Basset hounds
Angela Bassett
Waiting to Exhale
Sleep apnea

Vacation
This week.
Limbo.

Movie of the Day: Broken Flowers. Saw it last night. Bill Murray always chooses odd roles, but this one was interesting too. A man, Don Johnston, gets a letter saying that he has a son, but the woman doesn't sign the letter or leave a return address. So, Don goes on a journey to search for the mother of his son and has to visit the loves of his past. Interesting.

Psychological Relief

I am starting Day 4 of my vacation and I feel like I've accomplished a lot in such a short time. At school (and at home, actually), I like to call it Psychological Relief: that feeling you get when you finally do what's been on the back of your mind or those little details that have been bugging you. They don't have to be big things: fixing the shower head after 4 years of low pressure (honest), hanging up decorations you've had since you moved in, filling in a rebate for $20 that you've had sitting around for months. Things like that weigh me down. I'm now at the point of "Hmmmm... what else???" It's amazing how freeing it is for someone who thinks too much (untreated OCD, perhaps?). Any way, I highly recommend getting yourself some Psychological Relief if you can.

Movie of the Day: What About Bob. I actually hated this movie, but I know a lot of people liked it. I think it hit too close to home. I related too much to both Bob and the Richard Dryfus characters.

:)Becca

Road Trip

Saturday night I watched Elizabethtown with my folks and Sara (sister). One of the best parts is when Claire gives Drew a road trip map (which was really a kit). She tells him where to stop and makes him mixed cds to listen to along the way.

I would love to make and/or receive a roadtrip kit. To find the quirky places in the U.S. So many people around the world only see snippets of what we really are deep down. With our current leader, there are so many people not represented, that I think it'd be cool to really see the country for yourself, especially for foreigners.

A great line in Under the Tuscan Sun was when she was buying a house and they accused Americans to trying to take over everything and she said "A lot of us feel really bad about that." It's so true! There is actually a subtle oppression of the peacemakers these days. Maybe it isn't even subtle. We're trying to make things better.

For the record, I want peace. I would love foreigners to meet Americans who are against the war in Iraq- Americans who care about all of the horrible things that are happening to people around the world.

Any way.... the Movie of the Day: Next Stop Wonderland. We follow the dating lives of a man and a woman who we all know should be together if they would only meet. It's a quiet movie with a great soundtrack.

Sun!

The sun is shining through my prism window (9 prisms) and making a rainbow frenzy in my office. The sun is also warming up a spot on my kitchen floor which I've been known to sit in from time to time. These two facts are making it easier to handle the cold (though it's not SO cold any more). However, I'm really trying not to think about how I nearly went to Phoenix for my break. I'm really trying. For now, I'm going to think of fun, little things that I can do around town or in the Cities and focus on how much the plane ticket would have cost ($600).

Movie of the Day: Clue. I loved all of the different endings as a kid. I'm sure I missed 90% of the innuendos.

The State of My Office

When I bought my house, I was a bit shocked at just how small one of the "bedrooms" was. "People live in there?" Luckily for me, it's the perfect size for my office. The walls are lined with my computer desk, cd rack, short file cabinet, two bookshelves (only one shelf of math books), and a little table of plants. The remaining wallspace is filled with pictures, a clock, a bulletin board, some art, and two windows. All of this in an 8' x 12' room. It's small, but the most "Becca" room in the house.

Movie of the Day: Parent Trap (newer one). I loved this movie and like Lindsay Lohan as a kid. It's the classic story with a couple updates. If you look carefully, the dad's future mother-in-law is the original movie father's girlfriend. I love when they sneak stuff like that in.

:)Becca

Brrrr....

It's not even the crack of dawn and I'm sitting, waiting to hear if I have school today (i.e. work). Sadly, I should be jumping for joy that it's the last day before break, but with the weather sooooo cold, it's hard to defrost enough to jump.

Last night I went to the Whole Foods Co-Op for dinner with a friend. They have a little alcove to eat your deli dinner and we sat for about 3 hours. It was nice to not have a waiter/waitress waiting to seat new people and the food was awesome!

Movie of the Day: Mystic Pizza. A chick flick about 4 young women who work at Mystic Pizza in CT. Tons of famous actresses and I've actually been there! Yummy!

Poetry

I grew up two blocks from a library (less than that if we cut through back yards). It was a tiny building with three rooms off of the main area and two rooms in the basement (which they closed off in later years before closing the whole branch).

I can still picture the "New Arrivals" section and hear the creaking floor.

My favorite book was "America's Most Loved Poems" and it was so old and worn out. I must have checked it out at least 10 times. I think of this book when I wander Barnes & Noble and wish I could find a copy. Unfortunately, when they built the new library, it didn't make the cut and I didn't find it in the yearly sale of old books. So, my new mission is to find out when the heck that book was published and hunt one down. My guess is somewhere between the 1920's and 1950's. Oh my.

Today's Movie: Dream for an Insomniac. A woman just cannot sleep. She hasn't had a good night's rest since she was a kid. Her friends try to set her up with various men and she refuses to lower her standards. It also has an extreme Frank Sinatra theme.

Long time, no photo. Here's a pretty spiral for ya. T- 2 and counting for vacation. I think we're gonna make it (knock on wood).

Glimpses

I was talking to a friend the other day and she said "I'm finally myself again." If you dissect this statement, it's kind of funny, but this morning, I know what she means. I've been feeling "not like myself" ever since I returned from Sundance. Mainly it's my cold that is just now winding down (thanks to a Z-Pak). Beyond that, I'll blame the weather/time of year. My hope is to finally be "myself" again by break (Friday at 3:45 PM CST). WOO HOO!!! Then, I'd like to have a little fun on my week off!

Movie of the Day: The Bad Seed. I did a scene from this movie in my acting class one summer. I was the creepy little girl.

Anything But Math!!!

In an effort to keep me from teaching them any math, my 4th hour decided to brainstorm men for me. Here's a brief list of my "options" (many were deleted because I reminded them that their suggestions were married).

The 60 + custodian
The 58-ish social studies teacher
My high school health teacher
The bouncer
Multiple student teachers
The new Health teacher
My boss
A kid's older brother
The guy who gives pizza samples at Sam's Club
Some guy who works at McDonalds

Yikes! They just kept going and going. Oy.

Weird class.

Some Day...

A little poem by Rumi for the lovestruck and wishful:

A Word to the Heart

That which God said to the rose,
and caused it to laugh in full-blown beauty,
He said to my heart,
and made it a hundred times more beautiful.

Good Luck this Valentine's Day!

Movie of the Day: Singin' in the Rain. I love this movie for it's color, music, and the overall goofiness of the characters.

Brainstorms

Last weekend, I went to a Mongolian restaurant with my family and successful consumed a meal with chopsticks. If I'm thinking correctly, that was the first time I didn't give up and use a fork. So, I'm now thinking of other things that I want to do. Weird things, some of them. For instance, it would be fun to be a notary. I would also like to be trilingual, go to Europe, write a book (non-fiction), make awesome jewelry, and numerous other things that I'm still formulating.

Now I just need to get off my butt and start....

Here We Are

I spent the weekend in Fargo with my family. Today is my brother's 25th Birthday (Hi, Matt!) and the family converged on him and his girlfriend (Hi, Jenny!). Fargo really is an appropriate name. It takes about 5 hours to get there from Duluth, but it was worth it.

Now, I'm home and my house looks ransacked. By me. I guess that will give me something to do tonight along with finishing shoveling. Ha!

I keep having dreams about death. I'm not sure what they all mean, but four nights in the past week, one or more people I know have died. I need to figure out what's causing my nocturnal stress, huh?

Movie of the Day: Swiss Family Robinson. I LOVED this movie growing up. They were creative, smart people.

Food

For some reason, Duluth is lacking in some of the major restaurants that are in the Cities or even Fargo. Some think that's a good thing; Duluth has unique places to eat and is less cookie-cutter-esque. Some think that it might be nice to have a Johnny Carinos, Buca di Beppos, or even a Buffalo Wild Wings or a Chipotle.

Hmmmmm....

Movie of the Day: The Mirror Has Two Faces. Love and Smarts.

Who'd I Miss

If you are single, or you can think back to when you were single, do you ever wonder who you missed? Someone who was interested in you and you either were clueless about it or were not interested back? Do you ever wonder how your life would be different if you'd accepted their love? Do you ever think "Hmmmm.... he (or she) was really nice. Why didn't I like them?"

I was reading Blogagaard this morning and he got me thinking. Who have I been meaning to kiss?

Movie: The Ice Princess. In honor of the Olympics. And physics.

Lazy Shoveler

It snowed yesterday for the first time in weeks. The morning after a snow, I peek out the window and judge whether or not I must shovel before school or if it can wait until I get home tonight. My neighbors seem to have different philosophies: Shovel now, don't shovel at all, get someone to shovel. Then, there's me. It gets done, usually soon enough for city regulations, but not the instant it hits the ground.

Today, it'll wait.

Movie of the Day: Some Kind of Wonderful. Mary Stuart Masterson, Eric Stoltz, and Leah Thompson star in a movie about high school kids, socio-economic levels, and love. See if you can recognize the punk boy.

Just Two Clicks Away

I've added a few links this evening. Each one is to a webpage that allows people to click on a tab and a donation will be made to charity. One click a day per person on each site will give food, free mamograms, books, save rainforest, etc. Pretty cool. I keep forgetting to go to the site, so maybe this will get me to go there and spread the word to each of you too!

Other than that, my comments sections have been pretty lonely (nudge, nudge). Is everyone feeling a second round of the January Blahs too? Maybe we all need to stir things up a bit. Hmmmmm....

Prayer

As I was trying to fall asleep a couple nights ago, I was hit with a prayer. I said it at my Covenant Discipleship group on Tuesday and I'll share it with you here:

May each one of us here be filled with your light- a light that flows to our loved ones and the world beyond. May we realize that the whole world is within our reach. Amen.

I've been thinking about the riots over Muhammad and how sad the whole situation is. People are dying. How can this rift be mended?

Movie of the Day: Life as a House. It's a beautiful movie about a man who is dying and wants to reconnect with his son. He decides to build (remodel?) a house and recruits (forces) his son to help. It's a great movie, but grab some Kleenex.

A New Challenge

Yesterday was an interesting day in one of my classes. While I was trying to review some of the key concepts of the past week or so, my students started talking off topic (not uncommon).

For the past week, I've been reading a book about the framework of poverty and it's starting to shape how I view this class. There are so many things that I hear them talking about that I don't know how to deal with.

Some examples: Gambling, destroying property, stealing, fighting, doing drugs, breaking curfew (by 4 or so hours) and skipping school. My new challenge is to find the best way to talk to these kids (all boys, actually) about their behaviors and where that leads.

According to the book, my middle class mentality will not work in these talks. So, it's time for some research. Yikes.

Movie of the Day: My Life. Michael Keaton and Nicole Kidman star in a movie about a man who is dying and making videos for his unborn child to watch as he/she grows up.

Valentine's Day

I'm guessing that over half the population is dreading next Tuesday. Well, maybe some single men are glad to not have the pressure of buying the right candy/flowers/etc., but otherwise, a lot of people are dreading it.

Why dread such a sweet holiday? I'm sure you know some of the answers:

1) Not everyone has a significant other.
2) Not everyone has a happy relationship.
3) Many people have higher expectations than their sig. other realize.
4) Not everyone can afford $50 for roses, plus candy!
5) Not everyone can serenade well.
6) Not everyone has the same idea of what is the perfect Valentine.

I propose that everyone just make up a Valentine this year. I've tried it before and it works very well. Just decide on a name and how cheesy they're going to be and run with it. Did he serenade you outside your window? Did she buy slinky lingerie? Did you get 9 lbs of chocolate? Whatever you like, imagine it! Just make sure you speak a little tongue-in-cheek so you aren't called a liar and make sure your audience is age-appropriate and you're good to go.

Movie of the Day: Just Like Heaven. SOOOOOOOO good. Perfect for sitting home alone on Valentines with the chocolate you bought yourself (you always know what to get you)!

Untreated OCD

I was hanging out at my folks' yesterday after church and they were sorting out old cassette tapes. One was a tape that we made to send to my grandma who was wintering in California in the late 70's. The first side has my dad rambling while doing the dishes. The second side (which might have really been the first side) had my dad, my little sister, and me talking. There was singing, a little fighting, and me calling Sara a cutie. There was also me asking my grandma "Sylvia! Sylvia! Sylvia! What are you going to do today? What are you going to do tomorrow? What are you going to do yesterday?" Over and over. I commented that I've always wanted to know what's going on and maybe I had some untreated OCD! Ha ha. I was 4 at the time of the tape. Yep. Wow.

Today's movie: In Her Shoes. I saw this over the weekend and it was sweet, funny, and frustrating to watch. Tomorrow is an excellent DVD release day and tons of cheap movies in the ads this week (for collectors out there).

Random Thoughts for Sunday

Some random thoughts for today:

I think about the ebb and flow of some of my friendships and wonder why it's just me noticing the ebbing. I have friends who I hardly ever talk to, but who don't seem to notice! They're shocked that I'm doing things with my life. Shocked that I would go to Sundance, which is apparently too interesting for little ol' me to go to. Or what? There are aspects of my life that have been waning in recent years and I am now reclaiming them. I sound obtuse, huh? For example, I love to travel. I love to read. Unlike most of my friends, I don't do much with the outdoors besides observe it and marvel at it's grandness. I don't get jazzed hiking for hours, etc. I can see how people do, though.

So, instead, I'm going to do things that I like: watch movies, read books, write, make jewelry and voluteer for charities. If that means my circles don't bump into circles from my old crew of friends, then oh well. They know where to find me if they miss my company.

I'm now accepting applications.

Movie of the Day: Smoke Signals. Funny. Sad. Deep. A Sundance movie from years ago.

Sleep

Since I have a cold, I've been thinking about sle ep a lot lately. I learned about teenage sleep patterns in a grad school class and have tried to apply them to my life. Teens are supposed to get 9 hours and 15 minutes of sleep a night. Adults, less.

People sleep in cycles (different depths of sleep, etc.). If you wake up at the end of one of your sleep cycles, you will be more refreshed and wake up easier than if you interrupt a cycle.

I did a little experimenting with waking up naturally and calculating how many hours I'd slept. Turns out my sleep cycle is an hour and a half long. This means if I sleep 7.5 hours, I'm better off than if I sleep 8. Weird, but true.

Since I get up at 5 (ugh) on weekdays, I have been trying to get to bed by 9:30. It's actually working. This morning, I woke up around 8:15 naturally after getting to bed after midnight.

Movie of the Day: What Dreams May Come. A movie about a man whose wife dies and then he dies and tries to find her in heaven. Amazing colors in this film. Sad, though.

Dating Ideas for the Young

I have a student who comes into my room in the morning to hang out for about 20 minutes. On Wednesday, she told me that she's too scared to ask the boy she likes to prom. I tried to give her a pep talk about guts, but she wasn't ready to listen. She told me later in the day that her friends have decided not to go until next year.

So, yesterday I suggested an Anti-Prom party. Dress down. Watch movies. Eat. Invite a huge group, including "The Boy". This was well-received!

Maybe I should throw an Adult Anti-Prom. Dress down. Watch movies. Eat. Invite a huge group, including..... Hmmmmmm..... I bet I could get a group together.

Today's Movie: Sixteen Candles. When I first saw this, I nearly keeled over when her grandma felt her up. The HORROR!!! I saw an ad in a magazine yesterday for a t-shirt that says "I (heart) Jake Ryan". After you watch this movie, you'll know why.

Math and Religion

I am drawn to people who can have real, deep conversations about "the important stuff." By this, I mean the meaning of life, God, philosophy, psychology, etc. If you want to talk recipes, hiking trails, or sports, I'm not your gal. Sorry.

In college, I would have people ask me how I could be a religious person and a math major. My favorite class in college was Judaism. It was fascinating. Our prof was a rabbi from Wisconsin and I would catch myself saying "My rabbi said...." instead of "My prof..." That seemed to disturb some of my more conservative friends. At one "pod" dinner (10 of us), I announced that I thought that I was Jewish. Multiple people didn't talk to me for a couple days because of it. My reasoning? I don't believe in hell (neither do Jews). I read ahead in that class (not easy at St. Olaf where homework is abundant). When he would tell us about different aspects of Judaism, a small voice in my head would whisper "Yes."

In one of my journal entries for this class, I said that the more I learn about math and science, the more I believe in God. Such intricate details of the world could NOT be random. My rabbi seemed impressed. He also liked the one that I wrote about the number branding of concentration camp prisoners and how horrible it was not only because that's simply horrid, but because Jews do not believe in numbering people. For instance, in order to start a service at a synagogue, you need to have a minion, which means 10 people. Instead of counting off, they use a list that is 10 items long. If they get to the 10th item, they can start.

Movie of the Day: pi (pi symbol really). It's a bit weird. Okay, a lot weird. So, brace yourself. It's interesting, though.

Crash Test Dummies

A little over a year ago, I went to a Crash Test Dummies concert in Duluth. I hadn't heard any of their new stuff, but knew a couple of their old songs. Well, actually just the "UmmmHmmmmHmmmmm Ummmmm" song, really. I was a little blindsided when I got there.

We started by standing in line outside, which wasn't too cold because I think it was October. When we got inside, it turned out that they were taping the concert for a tv special/dvd. Cool! Only, not cool because that meant we had to sit on the floor to allow for the boom to move around.

The concert was at Sacred Heart Music Center, which is a beautiful converted church downtown. It's a great place with really hard floors.

Any way, because it was being recorded, if anyone screwed up, they would start the song over again. Odd for concerts, not odd for recording.

What really drove it home that I should have indeed stayed home was the fact that all the songs were DEPRESSING. They should have handed out Prozac when we bought our tickets. Seriously, it was such a downer.

To top it off, the camera kept panning the audience so I ended up faking that I was a big fan because I didn't want to look like a schmuck on a dvd. I should have just gone home.

I just found out that the dvd is coming out "in the early months of 2006." I might even buy it (huh?) because I want to see if I'm in it! Yep, I'm crazy.

Today's movie: The Suicide Kings. Interesting plot, nice looking gentlemen.
