late night tv

the competition tonight is between the princess bride and the fifth element, one exquisitely written story with epic characters that flows so well and so balanced, magically presented, perfectly cast, and cleverly acted it is often at the top of my favorite films list when i decide to ponder a favorite films list (it helps that the primary theme is true love which just happens to be the most powerful desire i've ever known) and the other is another tale of giving it all for love with the cold hard reality of the stupidity of humanity threaded through it which more of us should ponder more often (how else will we ever change enough to actually survive our own stupidity) and omg milla is so freaking adorable and vulnerable in it, how can i choose... almost every time though, i will choose the same one even between two frequent favorites... you, of course, choose as you wish...

working so much this week, no time to turn on the computer and yet, giving up sleep to unwind the mind is still better for the mind even though skipping sleep is harder on the body every year... drinking caffeine keeps the mind going, but stresses the body even more... careful please, i'd rather not die just yet... i might still find true love, after all...
