there are a few movies i’ve watched and felt the resounding “woah” afterwards. they are usually movies i’ve watched with Ryan because he has great taste and range.
after therapy and work last night, russ and i sat on the newly decorated balcony on our makeshift pallet sofa. i made pad thai for dinner and fell asleep immediately after eating it. i woke up and russ was also sound asleep.
i decided we’d walk over to Edeka and get a few things before they closed. it was a nice, somewhat chilly night. i was out of fruit and as a consolation for waiting for me, i got him a little salami treat. we took the long way home and walked by everyone having cocktails or smoking along the streets of our neighborhood.
when i got home i cleaned up my space and turned on the new lights in my living room which were an unexpected, much-appreciated gift from earlier that day. i lit some vanilla candles and decided to finally watch a movie i had on my list since it came out. for the last year i definitely wasn’t in the head space to enjoy it and i lacked the focus to give it the attention it deserved.
oh boy… The Worst Person in the World is one of the best movies i’ve seen in a very long time. i have a lot to say about this but i’m not sure i’ve sorted it out completely. the movie was relatable, raw, and honest. indecision and restlessness are two things i struggled with for most of my twenties…it often resulted in adventure but also self-sabotage. nonetheless, the urge or sensation to blow things up or step into the unknown remained.
now i’m listening to this and thinking about that movie. i could listen to that song on a 24 hour loop if i’m being honest.
beautiful movie!!
