Not much to say about today, really, but I need to write something everyday so, um, how’s this…
Knitting’s going slowly but well. It’s somewhat frustrating that my stubby fingers are, well, stubby and awkward.
My first knit
Amelia’s eye is watering and puffy, but nothing too serious.
Watching more Kaufman films (awesome) and Rifftrax (also awesome). Specifically, Hil and I have been making our way through the Charlie Kaufman’s movies (the ones he wrote the screenplay for, not just the one he directed). Hil had seen three, but I hadn’t seen one, so we did them in chronological order. So far, our considered assessment is that Spike Jones/Jonze/however he feels like spelling it today is the best collaborator. If you haven’t managed to see Being John Malkovich and Adaptation yet, go do so now. Tonight we watched Confessions of a Dangerous Mind, which George Clooney directed. Not my favourite of the lot, but still quite good. Tomorrow: Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, which Hil assures me is amazing. As for Rifftrax, we picked up the tracks for Spiderman 1-3, and watching them being mocked is extremely cathartic for me, and Hil keeps agreeing with the screen. “Yes! That’s the issue I had with this scene too!!”
