1 painting party at my house this weekend! i could use some help, if you're feeling generous with your time.
2 an extremely compelling performance by charlize theron. i thought the movie as a whole was weaker than her singular performance, though. she'll surely get the academy award for best actress. but christina ricci's character drove me bonkers. how historically accurate is this film?
3 anyone want to go see mystic river, in america, 21 grams, master and commander or the cooler with me?
4 i like their t-shirts.
5 did you know that towel bars can cost hundreds of dollars??!? it's ridiculous!
