folkyboyTim and I saw March of the Penguins this afternoon, and it was amazing. I had no idea that the life of a penguin was so complex! I mean, sure, I knew it was cold and frozen and all of that, but I have to say the whole experience was really inspiring.

I couldn't help but think about our lives as people in the 21st century, how cluttered it is with machines and gadgets and gizmos and schedules and all of those other things that "savage" beasts don't add into their already chaotic lives. It's funny how all of these things purport to simplify our existence and yet more complexities are added to us. Not to mention how our choices have affected our planet.

The whole experience was simply breathtaking and it just reaffirmed my desire to get into my own space so I can simplify my life and my family's life. I want to clear my space, clean my air, grow some food, give back to the earth... tread more lightly. I don't feel like that is terribly possible here, not right now anyway, so I'm anxious to get to that next step. Perhaps I should watch more nature films.

In other news, going out in the heat (to the movies and then Tim and I walked up Newbury street and hit some used record stores) really wore me out. I was seriously dragging my butt up the stairs. Yar, I'm old. But we got to stop at the Pru and have lunch with my smoochie (Qdoba, mmm), so that was a huge plus!

In other OTHER news, the employee at the Body Shop was totally flirting with me when I was buying shower gel. And I'm starting to get eyed by boys in public. Enter Bizarro World, Population: Me.
