I saw 'In Her Shoes'
I went to the movies last saturday and saw 'In Her Shoes' and I found it a decent movie.

The plot involved the following: Straight-laced Rose (Collette) breaks off relations with her party girl sister, Maggie (Diaz), over an indiscretion involving Rose's boyfriend. The chilly atmosphere is broken with the arrival of Ella (MacLaine), the grandmother neither sister knew existed.

Clothing
We decided to go into town to do some shopping last week. I bought some great trousers from Banana Republic.

It's getting bad.

Resentment
I really should think before I act.
It won't change what I've done and it's like an external presence. Well, it is a violation.
I don't know what to do: I am cheap, geeky.

Ear Drum
Now spinning in my CD player is the new Talib Kweli album. Somehow Talib Kweli never touched me. I did not love it the first time.

At work
Today I was told that the reorganisation is only the first of four phases. I was supposed to start with the LZD next month but something came up, so now I have to enhance the systems. Anyways. My manager heard that our infrastructures increased tremendously. MultiWeb will be finished tomorrow. What's the deal now?

I spent a lot of time this week trying to finish things on my to-do list. I am getting a new office PC.

I'll be working on the new LZD. Rumours say that I plan to work on the new LZD. So they change it again. Last week I was briefed that we have to cut budget for the MultiWeb project. Our e-tailers increased tremendously.

Well, let me know what you think, in the comments section.

'The Untold Story of Emmett Louis Till'
I had high expectations because I heard it is enjoyable, and I found The Untold Story of Emmett Louis Till absolutely stellar.

I'm definitely going to buy the DVD when it comes out! I disagree with everyone who said they were disappointed with the movie.
is stellar. is simply wonderful too.

Lead Sails Paper Anchor
Yesterday I got Atreyu's new album 'Lead Sails Paper Anchor'.
I probably seem like the kind of person who might be a very big fan of Atreyu but I'm not.
