i watched up in the air by myself on saturday because my sister went to her friend's house and although she invited me, we haven't been getting along super great and i felt like she needed some space. and, sometimes being around people i don't really relate to and/or just makes me more lonely.
those feelings were kind of perfect because up in the air is about being a lonely. and, it didn't seem like he was that sad about it. i know that he's not me and that i need people around to feel happy and alive, but i do need less people around and it was and interesting movie. it's strange to think how isolated a lot of adults are. they have their job and a couple friends and some family and that's it. it just seems so lonely to me.
i know that point of the movie (have you seen it?) is that it's hard to be happy all alone or that once you're not alone, you don't feel good about going back to being alone. or something like that. what do you think.
i also watched men who stare at goats. i watched it a while ago, did i blog about it. george clooney is simply amazing.

i've only ever gone from being not lonely to being really lonely and then lonelier and then loneliest and then not lonely again. i think about being lonely again and i think next time it will be okay. i know how to do it so maybe i could take it easier? but i don't think i'd feel good about it. although, sometimes i miss being lonely. i miss being all alone in new york city sometimes. isn't that funny? it was so upsetting at the time.
ReplyDeletei love george clooney. maybe i should see up in the air. i wonder if there's a george clooney biography. i bet he has great stories.
