Movies

I spent today, a rainy Wednesday, watching two films with a friend at two different theatres.

I think sometimes, I'd like to live my life in a movie theatre. Movie theatres are dark and comfortable. They are an escape from reality, a safe hiding place where I can spend the rest of my days.

Instead of living my own life, I can live the life of the movie character. And if their life isn't a good life, then I can be comforted with knowing that it isn't really my life at all.

This kind of life would be unproductive of course. But it would be easy. And entertaining. I'm not sure if I'd get bored or not though. I tend to like to be up on my feet and exploring every little thing.

Maybe I'll be a movie hermit this summer for a little while and see how it goes.
