Homework Frustrations
Tue Nov 08 2005

I'm going absolutely nuts trying to do my homework.  There are three problems I absolutely can't find any indication in the chapter as to how to do them.  The most frustrating part of this is we were informed by the instructor that the questions for the mid term next week will be taken from the homework.

I'm meeting with the two guys in my class early tonight so we can go over our homework together and see if maybe between the three of us we can get a better grasp on how to do these problems.

While I'm on the subject of school, I need to put some time into my other class.  The class is Studied in Film and I need to select three movies with either the same director, or the same actor, then do a paper comparing the three and isolating what aspect of them identifies a unique trait of the director or actor.  I know I want to do it on a director rather than an actor, but am undecided as to which director to choose.  Hitchcock and Spielberg are no-brainers, but they've also been done to death according to the instructor.  I'm thinking about doing someone fun, like Joss Whedon, or maybe doing Bryan Singer so I can include one of the X-Men movies in with the other movies I choose.  Of course, I could also go with Mike Nichols, which would give me a good excuse to rent Closer.  I've wanted to see it, but it isn't something Hubby has been interested in so I've passed it up every time we go to rent something.  John Woo is another I'm considering, Face Off, MI II and Paycheck would make for a good day of movies.  Blake Edwards is also a guarantee at an enjoyable day of watching movies.  Then there is Herbert Ross, with The Owl & The Pussycat, The Goodbye Girl, and Undercover Blues giving me a day of laughter and tears.

Choices, choices.  These are the kind of choices I enjoy!



Menopause The Musical

I heard about this on the radio this evening, with the song Hot Flash! playing in the background (sung to the tune of Heat Wave!).

I found information on it here:

It sounds too funny, and now I just need to figure out how to talk Hubby into us going to see it.
