Lindsay too me to see The Diving Bell and the Butterfly last night after work, and I had such a good time! We had some wonderful red wine and pizza in the theater lounge before. The movie (if you haven't heard about it) is a French film, an adaptation of a real bigography of a man who suffers a stroke that leaves his whole body paralyzed but one eye. He communicates through blinking at the letter he wants when the alphabet is recited to him. The movie is lovely with blurry bleeding shapes and colors to simulate his trapped amost underwater state. I'd been wanted to see it for a while, and now I'm intrigued to read the book. I left the movie thinking about Kristen and how she's off now for Canada, to start her whole new life and I was happy for her! It's so good to do the things that make you feel alive while you're able to enjoy them fully.
