Today I bought four DVDs (The Prestige, Garden State, Kinky Boots and A Series of Unfortunate Events), fifteen glow-in-the-dark stars for my bedroom ceiling (as many as I could find in the less-noticable green colour as opposed to blue, pink or orange) and a large bottle of genuine Japanese soy sauce from the wonderful The Japanese Shop. This random assortment of things - along with this - has in fact made me more content to be back in Wales than I've been since I got here.

Which doesn't mean I'm not sad about Andy. I may be mostly a crazy Roger fan but Andy got me into tennis as much as Roger's ponytail did. He's the one person I'd be happy to see beat Roger on a regular basis and it's getting to the point where I'd rather not check tennis results because then I can imagine that he hasn't lost.

Though everyone else seeded seems to be losing in Cincy too, so maybe there's some sort of losing bug going around. Life as a fan was easier in wrestling when everything was scripted. You got to yell at the scriptwriters rather than at the people you liked, because it wasn't their fault. Which didn't stop me yelling anyway because that's the point but it was mostly for the lulz.

Going to bed. Early, because I have this stupid interview thing to go to tomorrow morning. For a job I don't particularly want. But I'm going anyway because I've got nothing better to do, that and the woman sounds quite terrifying so I don't want to cancel.

Seem to be gradually clawing some sort of motivation back. Slowly. I'll get back to you on how that's going in a week.

edit: Oh good lord fandom_wank, the night I need to actually get to bed at a reasonable time and you deliver the hilarity. Damn yous!

Garden State! It's my biography! :)

^_^ It's an insanely good movie. Bit ashamed it's taken me so long to buy it.

I normally don't like that type of movie, but since it was made locally and I actually have friends-of-friends who were extras in the party scenes, it's just tons of fun to watch :D

Thank you, it ended up going pretty well. :) They really do; saw The Prestige for the first time last night and couldn't believe it'd taken me so long to see such an awesome movie.

Strange is a good word for it, though it is nice to see some different matches rather than the same line-up every tournament. I'd kinda like Roger to win it all the same though. :)

Fit me into that category too. Pretending that everything is goodwith his tennis game is far easier than actually seeing the results of him having lost. Again.

Garden State is awesome. Zach Braff. *loves*

Sticking your head in the sand and hoping everything'll be fine seems to be a good approach to his tennis right now. I'd happily see Roger lose for the next year if it meant Andy got another slam.

It is indeed awesome and I'm gleeful over having it on DVD, finally. Zach Braff = awesome things.
