| | Describe Your Day in Movies | |
Sometimes you have a day that seems to be the carbon copy of a movie - maybe a love story, maybe a Ferris Beuller's Day Off, who knows. Other periods seem to have a recurring theme built around a line from a movie - the line seems to fit in too many conversations you're having with people, for example.
The past couple weeks, I've had one movie line popped into my consiousness repeatedly as I talk with people about all sorts of diverse situations:
"I think that I am familiar with the fact that you are going to ignore this particular problem until it swims up and BITES YOU ON THE ASS!!!"
So what's *your* movie theme lately?

I don't think I know enough movies to pick one. Maybe one of the resident movie buffs can go read my thread in the Water Cooler and pick one for me.

My life lately seems to be a less violent (yes, I said *less*, thank you very much) remake of Arlington Road, with my conscious mind playing Jeff Bridges' part and my subconscious playing Tim Robbins'.

And today I feel like I'm living Battlestar Galactica....working at warp speed and dodging to avoid the aliens.

Yesterday and today were Working Girl - the beginning, where the title character gets crapped on and gets no respect from those she works with.

just don't turn it into that movie with Michael Douglas - I don't remember the name - the one where the title character gets fed up and starts shooting everyone! |
