District 9

Tonight I plan to see District 9 with John.  I've heard it is a good movie, and truthfully that's more than I really wanted to know from other people.  People tend to like to ruin movies for other people.  I think it stems from the pressing need to demonstrate to others just how smart one person is...some kind of evolutionary trait that compels a person to share what they know with the community.

This behavior makes sense historically.  "Me Ogg.  Me know how make fire.  Look!"  Yeah, that might have been nice in ancient times or now in the context of general knowledge or science, but when it comes to movies...phew.  I like to know as little as possible about a movie before going to see it.  I don't want to know how other people rate it, any "insignificant" detail, or even that the opening credits used red lettering.  The point is that any detail someone reveals to me kills off that piece of the experience.  If it was cool enough to warrant noting and revealing to me later, perhaps I might have enjoyed that fresh experience as well?

Heh...enough movie rant.  In other news, I'm feeling much better today.  This morning I woke up and felt 100% "normal" again for the first time in probably a month or two.  No light headedness, no tiredness, no dizziness, no intestinal pain, no dehydration...nothing but normalcy.  This feels so good.  While I don't imagine it'll stick around, I'm certainly going to try and enjoy it while it lasts.  Eventually I'll figure out what is wrong with me.
