Baby, It's Cold Outside

We had freezing rain outside and while Texas freezes are not like Georgia freezes (thankfully), it is making the cats all extra snuggly-clingy. So I'm taking it easy and half-hoping maybe the University will be closed tomorrow for the hell of it.

Douglas Coupland has written a book about Marshall McLuhan. I don't know how I feel about this, I really don't.

I'm debating whether to go to the couch with a book or finally watch Inception, because it arrived on Friday. I never saw it in the theaters because both Hal and Todd were all "eh" on it and I'm not a fan of anyone in the film, so it wasn't much of a must-see. Then the Internet freaked out over Tom Hardy, and I'm sorry, but I Don't See the Attraction. :/ (Yes, clearly I DO live on my own planet, why do you ask?) So.

I'm also contemplating the contents of my kitchen to see if there's something I could experiment in cooking because that would warm the house up nicely. We'll see.

re: Inception, I think it's to the movie's detriment that it's so hyped in fandom. It's a fun movie, I think, but either it resonates or it doesn't and if it doesn't, all the hype just makes people hate it. You know what I mean?

As far as Tom Hardy goes, I think it's one of those things where you have to see him in action? I don't particularly find him attractive, but he does have a magnetic presence in the movie (and his personality in the media is ready made for fangirl consumption). For my money, though, it's all about Joseph Gordon-Levitt being a badass.

Honestly, I'm not familiar with Coupland's stuff so I can't have an opinion one way or the other.

Woman, ELLEN PAGE IS IN IT. Granted, I have not seen it but I will. JUST FOR HER. <3

Honestly, I find Tom Hardy more attractive as Tom Hardy than I do as Eames, his character in Inception. I totally ship Arthur/Eames though.

Do let me know how you like it.
