Started on my resolutions...

I created a "Weekly Health Journal" form to record things like my weight, whether I take my vitamins, how much water I drink, how many servings of veggies and fruits I eat, whether I exercise and what kind and how much for each day of the week. It's a two-page word document, intended to be used double-sided, one page per week. The form has a spot to record weight each day, but I don't intend to weigh in every day. Once a week or so is sufficient in my opinion.

It's vaguely inspired by Flylady's Body Clutter Investigator, but vastly streamlined. Her system is one single-sided page per day. That's too darn much paper.

ETA: Ooooh. I should add waist measurement, since that is what I care about, not weight per se. *Goes and edits document*

Movies not on DVD

In my college and early married years, I went to a lot of movies at the Michigan Theatre. We saw a lot of offbeat stuff, including the original Pixar short in an animated film fest before Pixar was anything but a tiny computer animation studio struggling to make a name for itself. I saw a lot of foreign and independent films before Sundance got so hot and made indie films le sexay. I remember fondly the Henry V double feature...the Lawrence Olivier version paired with the then-new Kenneth Branaugh one. I miss us being members of the Michigan. *Thinks ahead to life after children are old enough to not need a babysitter; sighs*

I absolutely adored the films of Peter Greenaway, including the infamous The Cook, The Thief, His Wife, and Her Lover. That one is worth a look if you like the odd and shockable, btw, and IS available on DVD.

Two films of his that I would really like to see again, Prospero's Books, which starred John Gielgud as the title character in an absolutely lush vision of Shakespeare's Tempest, and Drowning by Numbers, are not available on DVD. *cries*
