Made it to Sunday!

So I've been in the house and under the weather for about 72 hours now and I thought I was going to go totally berserk. But I made it to Sunday morning (ok, sorry party people, it IS 12:06 AM!) and it's time to celebrate.


Besides the two rum-punch drinks I've already consumed, I want to celebrate my cloistered existence by sharing this movie I just watched. Now, granted there was no pop-corn, no fountain soda, and sundance has been the supplier of way too many good movies lately (I need to get out), but I'm SO glad I stumbled upon this film before it was too late.

It was called Somersault.

It was made in 2004.
It had a kind of a .. eeh .. disappointing ending.
But it also had BEAUTIFUL music, BEAUTIFUL visuals, and BEAUTIFUL Abbie Cornish. Oh my goodness.
Emotionally, it ran the gambit.
Also, I liked how the film approached the issues a young woman deals with when she doesn't know how to use her sexuality, how to love herself, or how to be alone.

In the end though, I have to say I wish it was still 2004 and Abbie Cornish was my best patty-cakin' friend. My best friend that would bring me medicine and get me out of this god forsaken house!!!
