That I, yet again, lack inspiration for posting. Kind of sad that only 9 days into this and I can't come up with things to say. Well, ok, I can, I just have to sort out my thoughts more first. I like to kind of have an idea of what I want to say before I post, although I'm sure sometimes it seems I am rambling on and going off on all sorts of tangents...which is exactly what I'll be doing tonight.
-Watching "Conan" right now. So glad to see him back on tv. He's awesome and was wronged by NBC. Trying to get tickets to see a taping of his show again. I went last year and will return with 2 of the people I went with last time. I can't get any til January's are posted, but that's fine with me. He's hilarious and it's well worth the wait.
-I'm almost done with my book. I'm debating staying up tonight to finish it, though I will more likely fall asleep and finish it tomorrow. All through reading it, I've been trying to picture who I'd put in it as a movie. Still debating on that, but I can kind of see them. I sometimes wish that I was in a position to pick people for movie roles. One of my favorite books, "Something Borrowed" by Emily Giffin, has been made into a movie and will be out next year. This is one, where the casting I'm iffy on. Ginnifer Goodwin is playing the main character, Rachel, which I can see and I'm good with that casting. However, her best friend is being played by Kate Hudson, which I definitely don't see. The character in the book is described as being tall, dark hair, green eyes...I know that things change for movies, but it's just not who I would have put in the role. Same with Cameron Diaz being cast as the mother in "My Sister's Keeper" last year. She just is not the motherly figure I was picturing when I read the book. I guess I'll just have to see the movie next year and find out. I hope it's close to how I imagined it in my head. I always do that, picture it as a movie, casting, where it could be filmed...even certain scenes I can even pick a song that would fit that moment. Sometimes I wish I had money and connections to get into finding authors of books I've loved and approach them about a movie and let it be made the way I picture it.
Sorry for yet another short post tonight. I'll try and have a deeper meaning one tomorrow, when I've had more time to think it through.
