productivity- sort of

it's amazing what i can accomplish when i have an extra day off.

i feel like i didn't even do much today, and yet i got a lot of things done. made a fruit salad, paid the cable bill, cleaned up a little, posted some pictures on facebook, put some clothes away, went to target for some bulk food items (including some frozen meals i can microwave- due to my stove/oven still being broken) and other random necessities- hangers, new bath mat, vitamins, etc.

but honestly, the thing i'm most proud of today is watching Taxi Driver. i've had the movie taxi driver on netflix since......the end of january? in other words- way too long. i made it a goal to watch it by the end of this weekend- and i got up this morning and watched it! check that off the list! and you know- i liked it. i have kind of mixed feelings about robert deniro. obviously he is to be respected, yet i had never seen any of his early movies that made him a force to be reckoned with. well- now i have. and i get it. and can i just say- the young bobby deniro was pretty attractive. also, the movie has an all star cast that i totally appreciated. harvey keitel as a pimp? hell yeah! and martin scorcese has a cameo! jodie foster wasn't in it as much as i thought she would be, but she was good just the same. overall- i liked it a lot more than i expected to- and now i can finally send it back and get another movie. i think Wall Street is next (i'm doing research in preparation for Wall Street 2- money never sleeps, which i think comes out this summer?)

and now i get to relax and remember that tomorrow is tuesday! 4 day work week!
