Oh, save the whales but not the universe.

so i'm moving stuff around in casita di hodi. that is, sometimes, the only way to get me to to truly clean, once things reach a certain level of disarray. that level often is referred to as "chaos," by some. some who are unenlightened. my feng shui may not be good feng shui, but it's mine. nonetheless, i can recognize when the energies are blocked. and i think there is some energy that's been stuck under my "dining room" table for some months. plus, my desk's been facing this corner for years now, and i'm sort of over it. you know? so over the past three days, i have been moving stuff around. slowly. it takes a long time for me to do stuff like this. first of all, i usually watch movies while i do it. one minute, i am, with great trepidation, discovering what lives under the cushions of my couch, and the next minute... i'm watching The Goonies. it didn't hurt that santa brought me the indiana jones collectors edition, complete with 4th dvd full of extra details and goodies i needed to know. i want to marry indiana jones!! but i'm not alone. find me a straight girl, who is within a ten year age radius of ... me, who doesn't want to marry him. i also watched "secretary" with maggie gyllhalaidfhaslfallen. i think that's how you spell her last name. i'd look it up BUT MY INTERNET IS STILL DOWN. bastards.

but here is my message to you, today. if you have not yet seen it, watch "whale rider." especially if you are female girl type person. and if you are a girl type person who is somehow related to my paternal lineage, i must INSIST that you watch it. just so you can say to yourself "ahhh... yes, pai... i know. foolish men who don't recognize the value of a daughter." *cough* sorry. sharing too much. but even if you are not a girl person, or related to me, watch this movie. it's beautiful and haunting and lovely and moving. and it's got WHALES!! whales rock. i'm a huge fan of the marine mammal group. the soundtrack is stunning. and i am so happy it was available on the iTunes music store, because i bought it, and i am going to spend many hours sitting and staring at a flickering candle, while listening to this music. otherwise known as "meditating." seriously, it's a lovely movie. and i'm convinced i must live in new zealand for at least 12 straight months at some point in my life. [hopefully writing a book.] anyone wanna come with me? if my internet were up, i'd be researching it right now. i wonder if there is some quarantine period pru would have to go through first?
