what was I thinking? (lyn)


I vote in the British Academy Awards.  I feel it’s an honor, and I take the role seriously.  At the end of the year, I try to see as many screenings as possible of award-worthy films.  If I wanted, I could see a different movie every night.  This week, that was my plan:  I schedule seven movies for seven days. But then I end up skipping three —and these are three movies I actually want to see. Four a week must be my limit.

Today, I am actually on my way to see the new Brad Pitt film, Killing Them Softly.  I feel a little queasy.  I pass a Starbucks and end up going in, ordering hot tea, sitting in a comfy leather chair, and playing Words With Friends.  I never make it to the movie.
