freewill horoscope for this week:

“Each day many of your cells expire and are replaced by others. As long as you live, this relentless process of death and rebirth never abates. Periodically, then, you have a completely new set of flesh and bones that retains none of the same atoms you were composed of earlier. Think back, for example, to the physical body you inhabited in July of 1999. There is nothing left of that old thing! In a sense, you have reincarnated without having to endure the inconvenience of dying. Do you realize how free this makes you? In the coming week, Scorpio, take full advantage of this gift. Show how much you appreciate it.”

Interesting. Now, off to yoga.

Oh yeah, went to see King Arthur last night. Needless to say it was interesting. Now, kudos for Hans Zimmer, for yet another awesome soundtrack. It was about the best thing in the movie. Plot wasn’t complicated, in fact, I don’t think there was much of a plot. Very little was actually seen of Guenivere, even though I thought she was an awesome character.

Now, for the issues I had with it. A) timeline was completely screwed (the “Arthur” they’re describing existed several centuries previous to the events in the movie). B) Lancelot didn’t exist until Chretien de Troyes added him. C) It was quite predictable, the Saxon invaders sucked and couldn’t plan their way anywhere. They were obviously underprepared and going to lose. D) According to legends, the roundtable was disbanded after the death of Arthur, the movie starts at the point of disbanding.

The plus: They got Merlin right.

Odd books given as gifts:

Midlife Crisis at 30

And here I thought my nervous breakdowns as a kid counted. 😛
