So many movies. So little time. But this summer I finished my goal of seeing all the films that Steven Spielberg has directed. Now I can read the book about him that has been on the shelf for the last six months.
My new movie goal is one that has been on my life’s to-do list for years: (which you can now find in part, at 43things.com)
see all the Academy Award Best Picture winners

Um, hi! Hopefully the name rings a bell with you - it’s been a really long time and a little curiousity about where life has taken you got me to your website. No need to post this but feel free to email me if you are at all as curious as I am. Oh and if you don’t know who this is then well, I am sad but think back to Summer Games! :-) Hope all is well!!!!

I cant beleive you’ve never seen “Silence of the Lambs”!!! Mike can quote the entire movie for you at mardi gras!

Well, the only time I’ve seen it all the way through was in high school on a trip in a hotel room when it was first out on HBO or something. I know it freaked me out, but I need to really see it, in letterbox, before I will count it.
puts the lotion in the basket…
