Don't feel like sleeping -
Not because I can’t fall asleep, I just don’t like wasting time sleeping. I could be doing something way more interesting now than sleeping.
On the other hand, I’ve suffered bouts of insomnia in the past and I’ve actually been sleeping steadily for the last couple months. I’m worried I may fall into my old habits of going days without being able to sleep.
Ahh well....

Movie Review
I saw The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo last night. I’ll admit I had pretty high expectations for it, and yet.. I liked it very much.

On love...
Dare to be vulnerable in the eyes of someone you love. Have the strength to know that the you which has been created came through the full range of the human experience…this includes love lost and trauma, fear and humiliation, passion paired with pain. It is one thing to let those things go…it is another to lose them altogether.

Anyone that reads this blog know’s that I’m a huge fan of anything Trent Reznor/Nine Inch Nails.
With that said, I have my hands on the entire soundtrack to The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo. It’s damn good - as if I needed more reasons to be excited for this movie. I’m thinking of rereading the book quickly before it comes out in theaters.
