toxic city

wow. i went on for almost a week without updating this. i can't believe it.

and to think that i had 3 days free last weekend to celebrate memorial day. whatever. where did my hours ago?

hmmm. saw 3 movies last week: x-men, over the hedge and yes, that lindsay lohan flick just my luck. it was my first lohan flick and i'm ashamed to say that i kind of enjoyed it. hah! the night before that, freaky friday was on abc and i caught a good part of it. i was a bit surprised to see there a long-haired chad michael murray (one tree hill) as lohan's boy toy. oh well.

x-men was good. i don't believe published reports that say there's no more sequels after this. how could that happen? (spoiler alert). oh well, magneto's 'back' so to speak, after getting 'cured' so to speak. hah. and professor x? well. psylocke's a pinay! yay! she's quite pretty. her name's mei melancon.

ben foster (aka angel) had a very interesting (and really bvery short) role. too bad he only appeared in about 3 scenes. what's up with that. the way his wings spanned, the way it was made made him really look like a winged man. damn good.

over the hedge was funny and hi-hi-larious. the most memorable ones? bruce willis (well, at least his voice) delivered in his role as rj. wanda sykes was hysterical as the skunk. garry shandling as verne was emotional. steve carell was quite a scene-stealer too. the film? commercialism at its best, and very realistic. the film had laugh out loud moments.

last sunday was beautiful: the weather was fine, the sky blue, and it was not really warm. hah. the best time to go to the beach. so what would momar do?

i freaking cleaned the house.

and i did my laundry. two loads, and counting. armed with a vacuum cleaner, sucked the dirt out of every nook and cranny of my place, including the stairs. cleaned the refrigerator as well. took out all the expired food/delivery/take-out that have been calling my ref home for the past six months or so. hah. i'm happy.

monday. i woke up and my entire body was aching. the last time i felt like this, physically drained and all, was when i was in northern mindanao with a 3-man team for 2 months straight, hopping from one bus to another covering the entire area from iligan and marawi to surigao and siargao. hah. those were the days my friend.

anyhow, i never thought that cleaning non-stop would give me a body-ache. heh. i used to clean my room before, 30 minutes, tops. this time, i cleaned and cleaned for hours on end. i have new-found respect fr all the cleaning ladies (and gentlemen) of the world.
