Went over to my dad's friend Al's house this evening. Since he has a huge big screen TV and a very lovely sound system, we watched Contact. Oh, blessed be. I love Contact so fecking much it's crazy. I had wanted to be an astronomer when I saw it many years ago for the first time, but after I saw it that even pushed the want further. To study those billions of stars, vibrant nebulas, planets, galaxies, that red super giant (which is approximately 1000 times bigger than our own sun) that inhabits the constellation of Orion... would make me so happy I swear I'd burst. This might be incredibly pathetic of me, but for some reason I get all choked up when seeing pictures of those things. I mean, everything out there is so big and we're so small. Such beauty and vibrance... it's breathtaking if not - with enough alchohol consumed - orgasmic. She was right; a poet. A poet could possibly get enough clarity across to describe it. I can't. It amazes me beyond comprehension. But, yes, I really love that movie. Jodie Foster is such a great actress. Gah. I love it.

Urgg... to go to Rock the Universe or not to go? Mummy, Erin, Deborah, and Aunt Winnie are going... s'pose I should, eh? If only it was at Islands of Adventure, though...

Holy crap... my participation level on Kazaa is at 500. That's high. I should download a movie or something, heh.

I love Contact. Big universe. Big, big. You know, a lot of people I've talked to thought the movie was too long and really boring. Huh. I really liked it. And as a bonus, you've got Matthew McConaughey to look at. He pretty. Ehe.

Oh, God, I love you in that non-scary way. It's one of my all time favorites and most everyone I tell is like, "Uh, why?" Hizzle shizzle, man.
