Jessie's Diets

This week I have mostly been listening to:

• Imogen Heap - Hide and Seek
• Tiësto - Adagio for Strings
• Faith No More - War Pigs
• Norman Greenbaum - Spirit in the Sky
• Bobby Womack - Across 110th Street
• Gwen Stefani - Cool

I thought of actually telling you what I had to eat each day in an attempt to shame myself into eating less, but that’s a step too far. Eating out each lunch time is a bad idea for your waistlines children, staying in each lunch time is a bad idea for your sanity, oh for some covered parkland in Belfast city centre.

Did you feel the summer starting to falter this week? That slight northerly dropping the temperature just enough to let you know time is moving on. Made me think of autumn. It’s funny how the quality of a summer can be decided by just a couple of days. Maybe that’s just my perspective, my commute into Belfast on venerable Ulsterbus pretty much rules out anything happening during the week so it’s all on the weekend to escape the great toad (I hated Larkin in school, then a grudging respect, now a nod of approval).

Red sky tonight, the shepherds will be happy.

• 300†
  Does exactly what it says on the (comic book) tin. Loved it.
• Little Miss Sunshine†
  Very funny, disturbing (the beauty pageant) and completely messed up -- but in a good way.
• Laputa: Castle in the Sky†
  Story great, characterization a little on the weak side -- though the big robots are cool.
• Porco Rosso†
  Stylish, funny, exciting.
• Grave of the Fireflies†
  Very sad, which was a little unexpected since I didn't know much about it before watching it. Can be a little too slow in places though, otherwise it's very good.
• Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind†
  The story can get a little dense at times what with the various factions, but still really enjoyable, inventive and engaging.
• X-Men: The Last Stand†
  Opportunity, talent, money - all blown. Over 3 films X-Men has hinted of something great that could have been, this last one says "No, sorry - not going to happen". Bah.
