Cinequest... 5 more hours
I feel like we should have stocked up on our carbs last night - that is the feeling you get before attempting to watch as many film as humanly possible over 12 days. So far I have only been assigned one 4-5 page Archaeology paper due during this time - but we'll also be reading Medea, Lysistrata, and Plato. And learning some subjunctive form in Spanish. Oh yeah, I'm horribly screwed, haha.
If you attend Cinequest, I'll be the woman standing in line with her nose stuck in a school book.
Spike invited a friend from his film class to go to opening night with us. Spike feels like he is really Hot Stuff right now because we have the special super-duper passes that get us into everything, and since I bought four, he gets to bring some lucky friend with him every night.
He had to write an essay for his communications class and he talked about wanting to be a filmmaker. He said when he saw his first Shorts Program at Cinequest and saw everyone laughing and happy, that's when he knew what he wanted to do. I would rather he wanted to go into business, haha, but if he's doing what makes him happy, then that makes me happy. Plus - FILMS! We love em!!!
So my embarrassing little Cinequest schedule has already been posted up at the Cinequesting Blog, haha...
I CAN'T WAIT! I can't wait to race back and forth from work downtown back to home to pick up the kids back to downtown to find a parking space, I can't wait to stand in the hellish line at Starbucks to get coffee so I can stay awake for just one more movie, I can't wait to see Nathan, I can't wait to see Jason, I can't wait to stuff myself with popcorn, I can't wait to see Monster Camp and Outsourced and all the shorts, and to stay at the Marriot and wander downtown (with my nose in a book) and re-meet everyone we saw last year. I can't wait to see my son so happy meeting all the film makers. Good times, ya'll.
Cinequest is the Best.
