Zonk!

I am definitely too tired for transitional sentences, so here's what's been going on lately:

1. I'm tired. Oh my god, am I tired. And it's not the fatigue of the first trimester, which felt a bit like the fatigue you have with the flu. I feel physically exhausted, like after an intense workout. I guess that walking to work with a bowling ball strapped to my chest could be considered an intense workout, so okay.
   
   
2. That aside, the pregnancy is still going smoothly. People tend to only talk about their pregnancy woes and horror stories -- especially online -- and I guess I'm included in that. Anyway. I'm tired but doing very well.
   
   
3. Of course, I think I'm all tough, but then I was reading this diary from the Oregon Trail, la la la, it sounds pretty arduous, la la la. And I get to the end, and she gave birth five days after they arrived in Oregon. OH MY GOD. I am so not tough.
   
   
4. We've been so busy with traveling and cleaning out the garage and working that I haven't taken any pictures in a MONTH. It is driving me crazy, since I really want to do an alphabet project. Preferably before [untitled] arrives. But at this point I'm so tired that part of me is like, screw it, it can wait until he's old enough to read.
   
   
5. Okay, on a non-pregnancy note, we saw Public Enemies last week. I'd really been looking forward to it, so maybe that's why I was so disappointed in it. I'm glad that it introduced me to the music of Otis Taylor, but other than that, eh.
   

Right. That's about it here. Oh god, I totally am a boring pregnant woman. Um. I finally upgraded to Leopard? I'm enjoying Howard's End? I'm . . . going to bed soon.

I felt the exact same way about Public Enemies. The previews made it look witty, clever and zingy and it just... wasn't. "Eh" is spot on, which is really disappointing. We blamed the fact that they tried to tell both Dillinger's story and the story of the FBI guy - if they had picked one to focus on, it might have tightened things up.

I liked that they were telling both stories, and it worked for about the first half of the movie. But then there was that scene at the hideout that went on FOREVER, and sometime around then they lost the track of the movie.

Plus, the camera work drove me INSANE.
