So, status report, i'm still sick. I got better, but I still get bouts of fever, and dizziness and my voice sounds like a lawnmower starting. This flu is though. But I am getting better, gradually.
I think I might be ordering too many things online, because i'm developing a friendship with my UPS delivery man *laughs*. We recognize each other and ask about our mutual days and everything. He actually came by on Thursday and Friday this week. I'm sorry for making you go up all those stairs every time, man.... He's a nice guy! He saw me all sniffly and pathetically ill and told me to rest well and get better soon. D'awwww.
I'm currently excited for the upcoming Les Miserables movie. This adaptation isn't an adaptation of the book, but an adaptation of the musical (so it's an adaptation, twice removed). Seems pretty neat. What seems the most interesting about it is that all the songs are sung live while filming, rather then being a lip-synced playback. The actors have microphones in their ears that play the music. So it's really a high-budget live musical. There's a couple of videos on youtube exploring the makings of it. Makes me pretty excited for it.
Speaking of musicals, this may seem like blasphemy to some fans of the original, but i’d love to see a remake of the Labyrinth one day. You know, as a high-fantasy musical. A real musical, where everyone sings. And Sarah is twice as badass. And the costumes and puppets are even crazier then before. And the Goblin King is played by an awesome actor closer to Sarah’s age group. But Bowie still gets a role somewhere, as a teller of stories-badass-grampa. Plus, Sarah could be dressed basically the same way and STILL be in fashion.
Welp, back to dying slowly and sipping tea while photoshopping.
