It's been hard to update, honestly. I haven't had a whole lot of free time, and work is stressing the crap out of me. I'm trying to find other employment, and I actually had an interview a few weeks back, but I don't deal with rejection well, so I haven't really looked for much since then as I'm trying to get out of this funk.

Anyway... I saw Sorcerer's Apprentice yesterday. It actually could have been a lot better. And I really don't get Hollywood's obsession with the current "total nerd ends up saving day and getting the girl." Cause I'm pretty sure any actual nerd would rather see some badass win at the end of the day instead of some lame attempt by Hollywood to cater to their demographic. Cause while you're making these lame dorks save the day in the end... you're still making them lame.

Basically, it needed more Nicolas Cage and Alfred Molina. Less Jay Baruchel trying to woo the girl he was heartbroken by when he was 10 YEARS OLD.

Anyway. The reason I'm writing this is because this last trip to the multiplex marked about the 5th time in my last 5 moviegoing experiences that my phone started ringing.

The reason why I am mentioning this is because I never receive phone calls.

I mean, I do. But usually it's when I'm expecting them. As in, if I'm hanging out with my girlfriend, and she's wondering something... or if she's calling me before I go to bed. That's it.

There's a few explanations for it.

A) I am the unluckiest person in the world.
B) There is a conspiracy.....

Either someone wants me to discontinue my patronage of fine movie theater establishments, and is using my cell phone as a long term plan to get me kicked out of every theater nearby.

OR. Someone just wants me to turn off my cell phone during movies. I used to never have this problem, since my old phone just vibrated all the time, and my new phone... even when I have it on vibrate, makes a loud noise when it wants me to know I missed a phone call. Which usually doesn't affect me... cause again, I never get phone calls. Except when I'm in the theater.

It's weird, because when I was going in to the movie yesterday, and I thought it might be wise to turn off my cell phone, because you know... I've been having troubles with it in the past few times I've gone into the theater. Then I thought "WAIT, I NEVER GET ANY PHONE CALLS. WHAT ARE THE ODDS THAT IT WOULD HAPPEN AGAIN?"

Which was beyond stupid.

So whoever is orchestrating this plot against me and my ignoring the "please turn off your cell phone" warnings... you win. My phone is going to be off, it's going to be on vibrate, it will be in a sound-proof case I will build for it in case for some inexplicable reason it still rings. I'm sorry if I have ever pissed anyone off, it will never happen again... or at least, it will never happen inside a movie theater again. Unless if the movie is particularly bad, and I can't help myself from making fun of your enjoyment of it. But I probably won't do that either.

So yeah.
