My solution to writer's block: I've started a "Blog Ideas 2" notepad document, and I'm just going to spit out everything that's in there on the first day. So here's a round up of everything that's been in my mind over the past day. Driving I've been taking on a few more difficult driving tasks. I went into town for the first time yesterday, and actually drove on the interstate. Which wasn't half as scary as I thought it would be. It was coming off the interstate that was scary. The off-ramp had a sharp turn with signs posted throughout saying "Careful for flips!" "Don't let a truck fall on top of you!" and "Best get off this road, ya varmint!" Okay, I made up those last two, but the point of the signs was true; lots of accidents have happened on that off-ramp. But I got off it safely and I'm ready to do it again. I'll do it until I'm not afraid of it anymore. Movies Last week I saw the movie "V for Vendetta," which was good, but a little unrelatable. I just can't imagine a world like that existing... And last night I saw "Crash," the Oscar winner for Best Picture. And it definitely deserved it. That was a very very good movie. I'm kind of on the fence about the ending (I usually like stories that wrap up nicely), but I understand it: all of these people's lives crash together, they change, and then they move on. It's not a real ending, because that story never really ends. Idol I have my predictions for American Idol tonight: the bottome three will be Taylor, Bucky, and Elliot. And Elliot will probably be the one leaving. He was very good, but he just doesn't fit in with the rest of them. And if it weren't for it being Country night, Bucky would be going home. He was in his element last night, and blew away the other folks. Next week, though, Bucky's a goner. That's all for today. I'm going with my grandma to get my new lenses and to get her pacemaker checked. TTYL. :)
