Numb my mind,

Last night, I spent my time relaxing in front of the boob tube watching Bend It Like Beckham. After a stressful week, the movie was a good way to end it. I haven't seen this movie in quite a while even though it has to be one of my favorite movies. Further evidence, as my sister would say, that I'm just as much an anglophile as her. Well, not really, but it does raise suspicions. lol.

I can definitely relate to some of the characters in the story. Jesminder's break from the cultural expectations of her family. Jules's suffering under her mother. Joe not living up to his father's dreams. Tony, as he is taking his first steps out of the closet and what that will mean to his family. ("But you're Indian.")

I was going to blog about the BSG finale... but I don't know how I feel about that. I think I'm going to need some time to digest what I saw. --We have to wait until October to see the next season?! Argh!
