Who needs Sir Philip Sidney
I just spent quite a few hours making our new Cinequest movie-watching schedule for this year. It isn't anywhere close to complete yet. But it so far includes the watching of 29, that's right, 29 movies in 12 days. Now that, my dears, is crazy; Britney-Spears-Insane even. Ding Dang! We got movies to watch Ya'll! I think I finished 20 last year, but I'm not sure - but this year they all look so good!!!!!
In fact, there were so many Super-Good sounding movies to watch, I may not go see Michael Keaton or Danny Glover, as much as I'd like to, I would rather watch movies and seeing them would cut into my movie-watching time.
We have been stocking up on food for Cinequest. 12 days of popcorn and Starbucks can leave you feeling really wierd, as Catie can attest. At the end of those 12 days you start to CRAAAAAVE crunchy vegetables and some vitamin C.
So we have: fresh turkey breast, swiss cheese and tomatoes so we can take sandwiches for dinner. Some good old fashioned, All-American powdered TANG so we can get unlimited vitamin C in the morning, and this year we are adding carrots and celery/peanut butter to our list. One cannot underestimate the intense craving for crunchy fresh veggies that comes upon you after twelve days of popcorn and diet soda. I'm totally serious here, your teeth are there for a reason.
So anyway, hopefully we can get through this year. I have two essays due over the twelve days, and I have one essay mostly completed. I hope to write the other one over the weekend, before the theaters open (heh). One Spanish exam due hours before Opening Night. And of course hundreds of pages of books to read that will be done sitting on the stairs at the Camera 12 Cinemas.
So again - the lady on the stairs with the books and Starbucks, that will be me. I look forward to meeting everyone again!!!

Gah! We have not had a chance to look through the movies at all yet. Will you post what you guys plan on seeing? Maybe we'll cheat off of you.
