These last few of weeks leading up to the end of the semester have been a little crazy. Writing papers and studying for finals have left me with little time to devote to anything else. And even now as I write this I really should be reading the rest of my research on The Tempest so I can finish my last paper before Wednesday afternoon. Two weeks to go, though and then I get a little break before it starts up all over again in January.
I haven’t forgotten about my promise to watch all the Almodovar films before his new film is released in theaters here in Miami. The date was pushed from November 11th to December 25th. Very sad since I’ve had to wait, but it does means I’ve been afforded a little more time to do what I said I’d do. Hopefully I can keep my resolve. Expect at least a few more posts on my favorites. I’d also like to mention that I saw Almodovar and Penelope Cruz on Charlie Rose about a week ago and I’m really pumped for his latest. He’s just an amazing mind.
I also want to devote a post to Anthony Bourdain, another personal hero of mine. I recently saw him at the Arsht Center with Jaques Pepin and Eric Ripert and it was amazing. I want to get a little more in depth and show off some pictures though. I’ve got lots of ideas jotted in my phone for posts. I try to keep track so I don’t forget, but sadly the wedding and school ate up most of my free time and I haven’t been able to devote much time to anything else.
I will say this: it’s great to be married. Nothing is different; our relationship is absolutely the same. We’ve been living together for about four years, not much will change with the signing of a paper. But it’s absolutely awesome to be done. In fact, right after we finished our vows and as we began to dance our official first dance as a married couple all we could whisper and giggle about was the fact that we were done and we never ever had to plan a wedding again!!
