I know it is not on-topic, but... am currently reading "the language of flowers" by Vanessa Diffenbaugh and am absolutely in love with the book. Without the headache, I would have probably just read all day, although I had chores to do.
I so hope they are not going to ruin the book for me by turning it into a movie

You could always, you know, like not watch the movie.

I could. I usually don't. But the promotion is so big nowadays... difficult to miss it, and all of a sudden the main protagonist, tall blond subtle guy in the book, looks and acts like Tom Cruise.

The only adaptation I liked lately was The Time Traveler's Wife, and this was a challenge since this is one of my very favorite book.

I met her in a club down in old Soho
Where you drink champagne
It tastes just like Coca Cola, C-O-L-A cola

She walked up to me and she asked me to dance
I asked her her name and in a dark brown voice
She said Lola, L-O-L-A, Lola, L-L-Lola

Well, I'm not the world's most physical guy
But when she squeezed me tight she nearly broke my spine
Oh my Lola, L-L-Lola

Well, I'm not dumb but I can't understand
Why she walked like a woman but talked like a man
Oh my Lola, L-L-Lola, L-L-Lola

( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gaMS_5i0Bbs )

Ohio gozaimasu, tomodachi! Birds singing, little puffy white clouds sailing across the sky, good music in my head, and a great big mug of unbranded Keemun tea in my cup! It just doesn't get much better than this! What else would I need?
A man (Anh, read as: 'person') who knows that enough is enough always has enough!

Some overnight passings in the the aquarium. Two neon tetras and the Beta went to the Deep Six and I have no idea why. I tested the water for pH, for nitrates and nitrites... the water is well aged so no Cl problem... it's a puzzle that I need to solve today.

Erm... we take away karma when people resort to unauthorized use of reasonable logic.

I drank my tea quickly this morning just so I could hurry to my second cup! I may even have a third!

It's "their consequences" that give us so much leeway.

I'm having my 5th mug of unbranded Keemun. I may be waking up every hour on the hour all night long. But it's worth it!

Black coffee. I have trouble staying in the bed on the best of mornings, but right now I have a stuffy head cold. So yes, I was up at 4:15 this morning. The cats don't mind. I skipped my walk for the past couple of days, but I think I'll go this morning. It's cool and damp outside -- maybe it'll help clear my head.

I actually drank a beer tonight! First one I've had in about a year. I made a Creole style dinner and wanted something 'hefty' enough to get through the spices, so I bought some Dos Equis. Pretty good stuff!
