I just put on my dancing shoes - party time tonight! Whoop, Whoop! Might even try a little West Coast Swing (if I can remember how to do it!)

Oh man, that must have been a real treat. I often wish I could see some of my favorites for the first time again.

Man, that'd be great wouldn't it?

I just put some veges on with some ham bones to make soup with. Just after that, I ate a bowl of yoghurt and muesli. It was yummy.

Reminds me of the blind guy on YouTube who was talking about some of the upsides of being born blind:

That's the best solution, but bitching a little helps the process.

I find that I subscribe more and more to the Ron White quote, talking about his brother-in-law (I think):

I've never seen the complete film; just the scene where Uma Thurman dies of a cocaine overdose.

Somehow, over the years, I've walked through the room where my husband was watching a film and seen the one really disturbing scene in the entire film. My movie knowledge is pretty much confined to a specialized knowledge of intense, upsetting scenes.

As for life in general, you already know my philosophy is: I let it go.

Uma (Mrs Mia Wallace) does not die of a cocaine overdose. She mistakes heroin for cocaine and overdoses by snorting a line.

*spoiler alert*

She is then revived when Vincent Vega (John Travolta) guided by Lance (Eric Stoltz) and his black medical book, administers an adrenaline shot to the heart, while his multi-pierced wife Jody (Rosanna Arquette) looks on in fascination. Quotes that come to mind:

That was fuckin' trippy.

A magic marker! A black magic marker! A felt tip pen!

I never seen no black medical book.

I gotta...I gotta stab her three times?

God that scene is brilliant. Really, the entire film is quotable. The entire film is brilliant. I feel sorry for those who haven't seen it or don't get it. And, the first time my ex tried to make me watch it I lost interest at the start. I wasn't in the right frame of mind. Now, I've seen it over and over and over. I always make a new connection. Pulp Fiction quotes pop up in my mind as much as Seinfeld quotes do.

Dogs eat their own feces.

I don't eat dog, either.


Is it really 20 years old? Yikes.

Hang on Limes. Really?
I hated it when it first came out because it was so violent and I seriously did not understand how and why anyone would quote the mundane script.

How could you enjoy this and not Utopia?!
Island traitor.

Although I have to admit I did change my opinion of Pulp Fiction.
It grew on me. I became less squeamish over the years.
The seeming banality of the script gave way to so many quotable lines as Infi says.

Yay for this weekend and watching the episodes of Utopia I missed.
AND the Doctor.
I thought I'd be in hospital by the time it came on. Sigh. But any kind of doctor will do, right?
