In establishing my blog today, Blogger informed me that I'd actually created one in the past. I'd forgotten, but it all came rushing back when I saw the name I'd given it: Aputi-Amy. "Aputi" means "snow" in Inuktitut; as it turns out, I'd first tried blogging about seven years ago, when I lived in Iqaluit, Nunavut. At the time, I had a miserably slow connection at home, so I never really got into posting. But funny to remember myself back then, pecking away on my very first laptop (a now dinosaurific Sony Viao) in my very first solo-apartment with the Arctic winds lashing away outside.
Some things have changed since then...I now have my very first Macbook and share an apartment with my very first husband. But freezing winds are still lashing away outside my window even though I now reside in the balmy Golden Triangle. Sigh. If nothing else, Canada's various winters are giving my life with some continuity!
So, we've rented some movies to curl up with tonight. "Before Sunrise," with Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy, is one. I've heard great things about this flick for ages so maybe I'll write a review and share my opinion afterwards. We also have "The Kingdom," which I'm dubious about, and "Little Children," which stars the lovely, curvaceous Kate Winslet. As a compressed hourglass figure, I do enjoy watching talented actresses who've managed to prevail in Hollywood despite hips exceeding 20 inches.
On to the movies and some chips n' salsa. Made, may I emphasize, in my beautiful, efficient Magical Bullet. Expect to hear much about this adorable appliance in future posts. (That'll keep the blog hits to a minimum.)
Bye for now!
