day 111

Today in literati once more I found myself playing more than one game. I do dislike when people quit playing a board just because. This board had too many vowels... Here was the first board:

The second game I admit was much better anyway. A fierce close game. Absolutely amazing as we ended a point from each other in the finally play. Here was the board:

I thought today's Christmas song would be one of the classic funny ones... Here you go.


Today's Movie: A Halfway House Christmas

An interesting twist to 'The Night Before Christmas'. We find a handful of recovering addicts in a halfway house that are a part of a reality show series. All the producer cares about is the ratings not the actual goals and well being of its inhabitants. So much to the fact he is so not a healthy person for them to be around.

The producer needs the ratings to be higher. To succeed in doing so he comes up with some plans to make them higher. He had strategically placed the halfway house across the street from a tavern. It seemed the will power of the inhabitants was stronger than that though. So he decides he will pay a couple of guys to plant drugs and alcohol in the house hoping to give them a shove. Sadly it does work and a couple will fall. One will land in the hospital. The other in a field questioning what he has done. Forcing the director of the house to wonder why he is doing this if he cannot do what the producer wants.

Once the director leaves the housemates concoct a plan. They use the changing of people about to their advantage. Seducing the producer as well as throwing a party with family and friends for Christmas. Throw into this the house cat the director swears they call "Refer" named Wreather.

Definitely not a traditional style movie though I feel in a day and age of reality television quite appropriate for the 21st century. The movie is acted much as a reality show, poorly. I think it might be what makes it so convincing. I do like that it still holds a meaning to it. I liked that it took into consideration that not all loved ones are home for the holidays and some could use a warm family celebration anyway. I liked that it suggested you can still have a wonderful Christmas without adding drugs or alcohol into the mix as well.

In IMVU I decided that the house I am working on needs lights. I want it more retro than now. It has a rustic feel to it so wanted more natural. After some thought I went with some torches for the wall. So I just hope we get no ogres so we don't lose our lights! Here they are:
