Listening to: Shawn Mendes! Damn right! Ok yes he's a 16 year old pop singer but I'm totally smitten with his song Stitches. I saw him perform the acoustic version on Ellen last week and have had it on repeat ever since. Judge away. No shame here.
Annoyed about: I noticed when I got back from lunch today my tooth felt weird. It was then I realized there was a small hole in my upper molar. Apparently, part of my filling came out. SHIT. I of course freaked out because I'm anal when it comes to my teeth. I already had a dentist appt. scheduled for next week for my yearly exam but I wasn't sure I could wait that long. They said I should be ok since so far there isn't any pain. I can't go a week like this though. Because it kind of hurts when I eat. Here's to hoping I can get in tomorrow and get it patched up.
Watching: Daredevil. Ok we actually finished this the night before we left for Pittsburgh but I haven't had time to mention it on the blog so I figured now was just as good a time as any. I got Netflix for Kimmy Schmidt but I kept it around just to watch Daredevil. It did not disappoint. OMG that Matt Murdock is some kind of sexy. But besides the obvious it's a really great show. I mean my girl Jess from True Blood is in it along with my favorite bash brother of Mighty Duck fame. It's a much darker take on the whole super hero thing which I really enjoyed. I'm already jonesin' for season two. Go watch it!
The Graduate. I saw it on Netflix and went for it. My mom is always trying to get me to watch old movies and I must admit she hasn't steered me wrong yet. (Love Story & On Golden Pond are a couple I've watched at her urging and actually loved.) Anytime The Graduate is brought up she just could never believe I hadn't seen it. And after watching it I can't believe it took me so long to sit down and watch. It was so good. It kind of had a Wes Anderson vibe (obviously before Wes' time but you get what I mean). It deserves all of the hype.
The Casual Vacancy. This was originally a book by J.K. Rowling. It was the first book she wrote after Harry Potter. I remember running out to buy a copy the second it was released just as I had done with every book in the HP series. But unfortunately the book was really hard to get into. There were a lot of characters thrown at you all at once and to be honest it was kind of hard trying to remember who was who. I never finished the book even though I tried on multiple occasions. I felt so bad, like I had disappointed her somehow. I had read that she was turning it into a TV miniseries a while back and then bam Dustin shows me that it's on HBO last week. So I of course watched it. I enjoyed it much more than the book although it was really depressing. There were very few likable characters, if any. I know it's so naive to say but I always envision England and the english to kind of have their lives together more so than us idiot Americans. The truth is we're all messed up.
