Jun. 14th, 2004 12:01 amI watched Big Fish yesterday, with the Engineer, and I probably shouldn't have.
It's an incredibly emotional movie and it saddens me that friends of mine didn't like it, because I found it to be extraordinary. However, given my recent family situation, I still probably shouldn't have watched it. Not just yet.
Like a stupid little girl, I cried off and on throughout the entire movie. It was just such an automatic reaction, a complete gut punch, that the first time it happened, I was astonished to find tears running hot on my cheeks.
I loved everything about it, especially the fact that it showcased how much Tim Burton's directing style has morphed and matured over the years. I also liked the fact that it has George the Giant in it (he played the giant at the circus who got shown up by the really big giant), who I met last year at the Sideshow convention in Wilkes Barre.

Today held a scare for me when I discovered that one of my rats, Major Tom, was choking on something. Badly. I flipped my shit and did everything I've ever read about to help a choking rat. My poor squishy boy, his nose and tongue and ears were turning blue in front of me. Everything turned out okay in the end, but I was truly terrified for those few minutes.

Six Feet Under season premiere, that I'm staying up late to watch, is coming on now.
I'm out.
