Fashion. Sigh.

I just watched THE DREAMERS which is one effed up movie for starters. But watching things like that always make me a little sad about my clothing. I wish I wore quirky cool dresses and skirts. I feel so completely corporate in how I dress and its depressing. Also, I really wish I lived in an old house and had rooms that were painted any color other than white. I love those European houses where the walls are painted all kinds of dark colors. Oh well. Someday, right? Anyways, I just feel like I'm not doing anything wiht my life but working constantly at a job that I don't even particularly enjoy anymore. Maybe its time for me to move on. What do you girls think?

Esmee's Music Update July 2007

I've got new Interpol, new Spoon, new White Stripes, Patrick Wolf, and an excellent band called Immaculate Machine. And if anyone has a yen for The Kinks after watching the Darjeeling Limited trailer, I've got that too.

Oh, and Dodie, I'm all for going to India! Sounds like a plan!

if i have to admit another shaken baby this week (i admitted my 3rd last night!), i really am going to cry my eyes out. i know i really wanted to be at a big tertiary care hospital, but i am seeing the sickest kids i've ever taken care of so i'm a bit shell-shocked.
i'm like so messed up by my new nocturnal schedule. and obviously am also having trouble sleeping for more than 5 hrs during the day. when i finally get regulated am going to check out the trailers! yay wes anderson. and will most def read harry potter. don't tell me what happens yet! i feel it will be a grueling read.

I have to admit I am a sucker for Wes Anderson

http://www.apple.com/trailers/fox_searchlight/thedarjeelinglimited/trailerb/

His new movie, Darjeeling Limited, looks pretty good in a quirky Wes Anderson sort of way. I think that even though I absolutely adore Rushmore and was disappointed by Life Aquatic, Royal Tenenbaums is by far the best to me. Just thinking about it. But this one looks pretty good too. Quieter and not as frenetic as Royal Tenenbaums (which of course was mostly Gene Hackman, oh and while on the topic of RT, hooray for my boss for putting two clients in that film!!!). The thing I am most excited about here is that Adrien Brody is in this. He somehow looks really good in it and I am of course always excited for Jason S. Overall outlook, think it should be good in a quirky indie sort of way. And as for the pictures, one seems to be some sort of INSANE poster I found, very biazarre. And the other is a pic of the guys, which is also just strange. Enjoy!

NEW WES ANDERSON!!!!!

The trailer is now on the quicktime site. I've already watched about five times. Who else is excited????

Possibly the weirdest video out there right now...

Ok Dodie, what the hell is faizington's website up to? There are these biazarre webisode things, so the first was posted don defamer cause it involves BEN AFFLECK DRESSED UP AS AN EAR OF CORN. Except then it got stranger for me once I saw that it was producer by the center for american progress. I was like "what the hell?" and had to go to the whole website. Its just so biazarre. There is no other word for it. Must watch and then have your boy explain what the eff is going on. They got pretty cool people though, like our gal Sarah S.

Probably the most exciting thing to happen in Boxborough all year...

AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's 2:19am, technically Sunday I guess. I just finished the book. OMG. Don't worry, I won't spoil anything for you. I had been hoping to wait until my days off on tuesday and wednesday to read it at a leisurely pace, possibly drinking coffee out on the balcony, but then I spent the entire day today putting my fingers in my ears, darting away people, averting my eyes as I unboxed more of the damn books, and shrieking "No! stop talking! I haven't read it yet! FOR THE LOVE OF GOD STOP TALKING ABOUT THE BOOK!!!" But of course working in a bookstore, pretty much 97% of all conversations were about Harry Potter, and at least four staff members had finished the book before coming into work today.
So I broke down and started reading. It took me about eight hours.
I'll tell you all about the madness of Friday night later (I'll also post pictures once I've got them on disk).
But right now I'm going to bed.

harry potter mania
