I watched the movie "Once" last night, and really enjoyed it! Notwithstanding the fact that they drop the f-bomb about 400 times (mostly at the very beginning), it was a refreshing change of pace in a movie. Un-Hollywood style. And I like it. Be warned though, I'm not exaggerating about the language. Be ready to tune it out.
The most valuable lesson learned, however, was all the cool Irish/England phrases. :) Let's all get together on this and bring these phrases over to free-town USA! Phrases include: "That's brilliant," "Cheers," "Delightful," putting "Yeah" at the end of every sentence, and unfortunately that's all I can remember.
In other exciting news, I bought Photoshop CS3 & Lightroom!! Finally! I can't wait to start playing around with it! I already use Lightroom and love it, but I'm so excited to see what Photoshop can do. Man, it's an extensive program...
A much smaller purchase, but still exciting: I got the Norah Jones piano sheet music book! I'm so glad to be playing the piano again!
School starts soon. Oh boy.

I too am going to start playing the piano again, after years of a 'sabatical'. I am hoping that my 9 years of lessons didn't go in the trash! We should get together and play.
I know I sound dorky, please don't judge me! Hahaha
Hi Caroline,
Got to your blog from a blog by someone called "Brian."
I am in favor of the language importation. The same phrases and words are used by Australians and New Zealanders (Kiwis). I travel there every year and enjoy the change in language. Cheers!
