what a day ...

I've been anxiously awaiting it's release since first watching the theatre previews months ago.

I was not disapointed.

Sure the storyline is inconceivable, but they pull it all together quite well and for 2 hours you believe it's happening and are riveted (at least that was my experience). Clive Owen , Michael Caine, Julienne Moore give equally (and typically) amazing performances. That's all I'll say, make sure to catch it somehow in film or DVD.

moving right along ..

As planned, I snagged My Chemical Romance tickets at the presale yesterday morning.
---
Work stressed the hell out of me yesterday, the calls & requests never let up
(my boss still absent now, it's going on week 4 with no end in sight).
---
question...
---
any other Stephen King addicts out there?

I've been reading quite a bit of late (for a change) and am now on my 4th of his works I've attacked since I stopped partaking in the hooch exactly ONE MONTH ago today (insert *proud grin* here). In any case I've read since early December Thinner, Desperation, Bag of Bones and am now a third-way through ..

---This one is my favorite yet. It's his most recent.

Oddly I have never been a big fan of fiction. My reads have typically been Histories, Biographies, and the occasional historical Fiction (I have also attempted on several occasions to contribute , with little success thus far. I love to write, and in my bedroom closet you will find dozens of notebooks containing my numerous attempts to complete something of substance. Perhaps some day I'll finish one of them).

Anyone else had a go at Lisey's Story? Better yet, Cell (his other 2006 release,
it's next in my queue after Lisey, this man has been quite prolific of late) ?
I'd love your input should you have started or even completed either.

It will be an amazingly beautiful day today in New England I'm told. We should expect temperatures in the 70's. I will be picking up my little monsters in about an hour, perhaps after (yet again) tackling the malls to liquidate their numerous Christmas Gift Cards they will agree to a walk along the River (we have an incredible bike path not far from my Condo, which in summer the three of us often take advantage of).

Hope everyone has a great Weekend!!

PS - Congrats especially on the one month mark...
I am dying to see Children of Men. So good to see that a personal endrosement from someone I trust...
Did you see The Science of Sleep?
So, I should be seeing that movie, eh? Okay. I will see it.
The right guy will come along for you, I know.
I want to see Children of Men, too.
Wow, 70's in New England in January. Who'd'a thunk it?
Hope you had fun with your kids!
I am a bigger fan of Stephen King's earlier books, Salems Lot being my absolute fave. I might check out Lisey's Story. I heart a good scary book
i've read a lot of Stephen king, but nothing really recent. LOVE Salem's Lot! And the Stand, the LONG version, is great. It clock in at over 1000 pages, but I've read it three times in the past 20 years, and I love it still. Definately recommend both of them.
Cujo was a bore for me, I'd steer clear of that one. but that's jsut me.
HUGS....
Next..
Anyhow.. I was just thinking the other day what happened to Stephen King. And you have answered my question there. Let me know what the new books are like and if he has changed in his style of writing to what his older works were like.
x
Hugs!
As for Mr. King ... I am not such a big fan. I find his writing style not to my taste. I've read a couple of his books like "Thinner," at the insistence of friends. My brother said I should read "The Stand." I'm not sure if I'll like it.
Isn't the weather CRAZY?!! Hubby went out for a bit yesterday, and people were in tank tops, shorts and flip-flops!!
I read a few of Stephen King's early stuff (Christine, The Dead Zone) but when I got to a selection of his short stories (I can't remember the title, but the cover had a scary wind-up monkey toy on the cover) one story freaked me out to the point where I said ENOUGH!
Make sure to wear plenty of sunscreen for your trip to the mall today! ;)
I was given the audiobook to The Cell, so I will check that one out. I wasn't aware of another Stephen King release. It always seems like he pumps these books out fast!
Hope you have a good week, and My Chemical Romance rocks!
My favorite Stephen King is The Stand...loved it. I read it back when I was bored in high school...I read a lot in class...the teachers didn't mind b/c it was one less kid to yell at.
One thing that did bug me though had nothing to do with the movie itself. I can't believe how expensive it is getting to go to movie theaters. Between the five of us we spent $100 for tickets, snacks and soda. I think we all decided that it's going to be DVD dinner parties from now on unless it's a really special movie event.
