Jul. 24th, 2011 11:00 pmMy new red glasses match my phone and my camera. When did I turn into such a girl? I do like them - they have little stones on the side in decoration. I’m still wearing my old glasses for the computer and most things but it is good to have a stronger pair.
“Adjustment Bureau” Seeing actually New York people talk to and about Matt Damon’s character is weird : Jon Stewart, our local Newscaster, Bloomberg even! You know movie, Dark Ages is a myth and equating that with low point of civilizations ignores all the prosperity of outside Europe and takes me out of the movie. God or whoever is very ethnocentric in this movie (since nothing horrible happened in Europe from 1500 to 1900 at all, obviously.) The final voice over was unnecessary because we are not really stupid. But this movie did make me cry happy tears – I’m a sappy romantic sometimes. I found it to be a good adaptation of the story even if some plot points were heavily foreshadowed. Matt Damon and Emily Blunt were great in it. So other than Eurocentric bias and the final voice over I really liked this movie.

Today was the first day of gay marriage in New York and it is wonderful to watch. Listening to people’s stories , people who been together for 4, 10, 18, even 42 years is better than all the negative news we get all the time. It made me very teary.
