i need a new nose

another long lag in blogging. this is in part due to lack of inspiration and also being so damn busy in the last month with work. i'm tired of drawing ultra dumbed-down hearts with mega defects that require multiple surgical corrections, like hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS). being in patient education can be frustrating that way.
it's been a very low-key long weekend. i opted to do pretty much nothing. i feel like i'm still recovering from the last couple weeks of hell. plus, today something in the air triggered a massive histamine respone in my immune system. i've taken claritin, 2 ibuprofens, 2 benadryls (which knocked me out cold for 2 hours), and used nasal spray. i'm still stuffed up with drippy, watery snot in abundance.
celluoid watch:
me and you and everyone we know | a surprisingly wonderful film with quirky characters. even with its common themes of lonliness and happiness in life, it was really appealing and well-done.
strangers with candy | amy sedaris is odd (looking) and hilarious
little miss sunshine | i loved it- another dysfunctional family story. it featured music by devotchka (we saw them recently. it was the BEST show i've seen this past year)
inside deep throat | rather educational and should be in history books. actual porn clips, too.
