my current obsessions

FILM: Ryan and I have seen this twice in the theatre now. That never happens.
We loved the characters, the music, the story. After the first viewing of the The Darjeeling Limited, Ryan turned to me and said "Makes me want to grow a mustache and start smoking." That made me laugh. I think we might see it again before the year ends.

TV: Our favorite neighbors/friends (guess who they are?) introduced us to this TV show. Pushing Daisies is one of those shows that every Wednesday I'm like -I can't wait till pushing daisies is on. That never happens for me on network TV stations. It is so different and quirky. It is combination of characters from a Tim Burton movie, scenes and sets from a Jean-Pierre Jeunet movies, narration that reminds me of Dr. Seuss books, with clothing (Chuck and Olives' dresses) from an Audrey Hepburn Movie. If you haven't seen it yet, you MUST tivo it.

Music:I know "back to black" was released last year. I just got a copy a few months ago and I still keep going back to it on my I-pod. I love every song on that CD. I also find myself following her life story. Her dirt bag husband got arrested on Thursday. Hopefully WINO will get some help...and come to the US to perform. I would drive to Vegas or Cali to see her.
On another note...Miss PJ HARVEY came out with a new one. We just got it. Did anyone catch the performance on Leno a few weeks ago? Holy shit...she is wonderful. I love those Brit Ladies.
