Money, Money, Money

As I star into the eyes of my Keira Knightly screensaver, I find that I am still a long way from where I want to be in life. I mean I'm glad I'll be starting work tomorrow at Estee Lauder but since I still have no money I have to rely on my mom to get me thru my first pay period. Jeez, it's just like friggin high school over again. I must remain patient and stick to my plan. It won't be long before I am able to pay for stuff on my own and then I'll be able to enjoy some peace of mind.

I saw Wedding Crashers last night with K, Alan and Jim. They picked me up from my cousin James' gradutation party (pt. 2) where I was knocking back Heineken's while presiding over the evening's poker proceedings. We were originally going to see Charlie and the Chocolate Factory at Island 16 which is in nearby Holtsville. Much to our surprise we were unable to see it since the multiplex lost all power due to a overworked transformer. Undaunted by this setback we went to Regal Cinemas over in Ronkonkoma. Seeing that Charlie already started we quickly decided that Wedding Crashers would be a decent alternative.
I was more than glad to see it and heard nothing but good things about it. I'm pleased to report that it is the funniest movie I've seen all year. Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson are great together and it was their chemistry that carried the film whenever there were any slow moments. I would've liked to have seen more of Rachel McAdams (she is really easy on the eyes) who played Owen Wilson's love interest. She has great screen presence and I'm sure she's on her way to a stellar career in Hollywood.
Aside from being an obvious crowd pleaser, what I enjoyed most about the movie was the fact that it stirred something within me that's been there for a while now. I can see myself writing that type of script. I don't want to sound cocky but I feel that I am a pretty funny guy and it is a reminder of what I am capable of.

So now all that's left is to go out and do it already.
