The theme of this movie is similar to a post I wrote a few weeks back about how I would spend the rest of my life, if I found out it would be of short duration. “Short” being a relative term of course. For A. Jolie’s character, it’s a week, and she spends it eating Oreo cookies. That was numero tres on my list of things to do. Anyway, she’s overly career-oriented, so that’s a bit cliche (workaholic finally figures out there’s more to life than work and re prioritizes life due to near-death prediction) but whatever. Gets you thinking, gets the message across. Jolie always seems to look a bit like Kathy Bates in Misery. Something about those eyes.

Supposed to be a big meteor shower early tomorrow morning. Quadrantids. Going to try and catch it if it’s not too cloudy out.

1/5/08 Update: I woke up yesterday at 4AM to look for the meteor shower. It was a clear night, I saw stars, and an airplane go by. Didn’t see any meteors. Shucks. Went back to bed about 20 minutes later.
