Suburban Sisyphus

My back is sore, my hands are calloused and I'm weak. But the leaves: they don't stop falling.

Dark Days

One month later...

So, I went to the movies the other night ($5! Take that, NYC) and saw The Informant (highly recommended). The movie was good, but I've never seen such frightening previews. First up was 2012, a flick where the world is, literally, destroyed, with only John Cusack left to save his family (die in the apocalypse or live on with the annoying Cusack? I'll take the former). Next was the movie-zation of Cormac McCarthy's The Road, a book so depressing I was hoping for a dying dog or cancer-stricken mother to brighten things up.

Scariest though, was the preview that followed those two:


*shudder*
End of days, indeed.
