THE EMPIRE
Farewell and Hello
This morning, the Divine Miss M and I went to the early showing of Avatar in 3D. Instead of the flimsy cardboard 3D glasses with the red and green lenses, pairs of plastic glasses were handed out with the tickets. They look pretty nerdy. I was digging it.
After the previews (and I really want to see "Clash of the Titans") the screen went dark and we settled in.
To no picture. Sound, but no picture. *sigh*
Something was borked. Turns out they were not able to fix it, so we were offered a screening NOT in 3D and a pass to come back and see the movie in 3D, or we could wait until the noon show, OR we could get a refund.
We chose Door Number One. So although this time I didn't see it in 3D, I will soon. In the meantime, I thoroughly enjoyed the movie on a regular screen.
Parts of the story bugged me, but nothing so bad it took away from the absolute beauty of the film as a whole. I was so mesmerized! The irony of the technology used to make a movie about how ruinous technology can be was not lost on me, but I am truly amazed at what Cameron was able to achieve. It felt like I was actually on Pandora for almost three hours, and I can't wait to go back.

Dear 2009;
Basically, you sucked. GTFO, okay? Nothing personal, but you gave new meaning to "sucking the hairy balls of Lucifer". I'm not sorry to see you go, and don't look for a postcard, mmkk? Although there were a few highlights, for the most part you were worse than a disappointment -- you were an anchor, a canker, a total pain in the ass and you are DISMISSED.
Take care.
Love,
Me

Dear 2010;
This is your chance. Time to step up and show a softer side of a decade-in-progress, hear me? I'm going to set my sights a lot higher, and while it's up to me to produce, a little help here, if you don't mind?
Oh, and the Mayan thing? Whateva.
Show me what you got. And make it good.
Love,
Me

From the Vaults of Personal Experience:
If the worst thing you can say about your family is they're annoying, count yourself lucky.
Patience is a virtue, so they say, but I want it NOW.
Some things improve with time, and some things just don't and never will.
If I could choose a second career I would love to be the next Food Network Star.
