Deja Fu

My weekends are becoming redundant. I am now a master of redundantism.

I watched Buffy season 5 disc 1. At last they seemed to put together a good season opener and the following three episodes were all excellent. As I understand it, season 5 is where the series really gets its legs and so far I would say that all indicators are pointing to: correct.

I liked the start off of season two of Angel and the first four episodes continued to be as entertaining as the first season, if not just a little bit more so.

Ghost World was the only movie I watched and I enjoyed it tremendously. I'm a big fan of Steve Buscemi and I thought his performance was excellent, maybe his best. It's a good movie and I'd recommend giving it a look up. I'd say more about it, but others seem to have already done it better than I could, so read their reviews.

My parents came up to visit on Sunday and since my mom loves the church that I used to go to that's where we went. I really don't like going back to that place. At first it always feels good to be back, kind of homey, but then it starts to feel really oppressive. I just have too many memories there. Most of them being of the life I had hoped I would lead and I'm reminded of my failures. I'm aware of my screw ups and I don't need them refreshed. Another thing that bugs me is that everyone tells me how much the miss me, but then I never hear from any of them. No one calls to check on me or ask how I'm doing and I spent a good three years of my life pretty heavily involved with that place. I didn't even get a response when I sent the email to my pastor telling him I wouldn't be attending church anymore.

I did have a good time hanging out with my parents though. We watched the Star Wars documentary "Empire of Dreams" that comes on the special features disc of the new DVD set. They seemed to enjoy it, but I snoozed at times as I had staid up too late on Saturday night.
