Sick Day

[scottishlass]

I'm sick as a dog today ... did eat something that didn't agree with me and I feel as if my whole stomach has been turned inside out with a sprinkle of napalm thrown in for the right kind of cramps :s
Called in sick at the STK but hugged the porcelain bowl most of the day :s
The weirdest thing though is that my stomach things it's hungry and Olly is not helping and snacking his favourite stuff right in front of me. *sigh*

Additionally, my FTP client is acting up and I can't update m.i.t.m. - sorry about that. My pro-work is in the stocks as well, I don't think I can finish it till Friday :s I hate that but I don't think I will be able to finish this project in time ...

Last night I watched Karan Arjun. Man, Rakesh Roshan has some problems with revenge. That was one big blood fest, though it was nice to see SRK in his second movie, and together with Kajol and Salman Khan (gratuitious bare-chested shots included - Salman not SRK). But this is one movie that my little god-daughter will NOT see. Jeesh talking about repressed blood lust, I wonder what this director is like in real life if he puts something like this up on celluloid.

I ate over-ripe tomatoes yesterday, I love tomatoes but these were already soggy so i put them into a salad, shouldn't have done it.

Salman Khan ... yeah I heard about the manslaughter charges as well as his treatment against various of his girl-friends. Also that he drinks quite a lot, which for a Muslim is quite unusual. That man has some serious problems :-(

Karan Arjun, I was laughing so loud at some of the shots as well as the clothes ... It was straight out of the Eighties even though it was done - what - 1992/3? And that kiss in the stable boy meets rich girl picturization? I waited for something to happen for ages and then SRK had to shield *the kiss* with his hands *LOL*

the whole movie screams 'bollywood kitsch' to me. but shah rukh is still loveable. i just think it's so goofy in that song how they have a huge set of lips on the billboard and the dress that kajol's wearing, she's nearly popping out of it, but they won't show a simple kiss. haha.. sometimes the hypocrisy is funny, sometimes annoying. but i guess in today's oversexed society it's refreshing sometimes. but now apparently [i haven't been watching the average hindi movie] they're getting pretty graphic and daring, actresses... no.. just models turned 'actresses' who don't feel any moral resistance to taking off their clothes. whoa.. ok.. i'll stop now. haha.. sorry i'm in one of those ranting moods today. :-/

The scene where he teaches her how to use the slingshot was sooo adorable. Wish we could have seen more of that.

Yep :) that was hilarious .. and I liked the double meaning in their dialogues, it didn't come well across in the subs but I have been brushing up on my Hindi and the dialoque was pretty hilarious and ambigious :)

Oh yeah the *skin flicks* as they are called. I have been seeing one or two but you know ... they don't have the charm and apparently they are not as big a hit as the *old fashioned* movies. And I don't think you will never see one of the big names like Kareena Kapoor, Preity Zinta, Kajol or even Aish (though I'm not quite sure about her) taking their clothes off.
Kajol wore bloomers under her short white mini skirt in Mere Khwabon Mein :) And longish spandex biker pants in Karan Arjun. Kareena looked pretty hot in Asoka but still she wore a padded top which did only show a small hint of cleavage or the shape of her breasts.

I think it won't be so much fun anymore to watch those skin flicks. I mean I love Bollywood for its cheesiness as well as their PGness (which is strange as I'm one of those who mainly write NC17 smut fanfiction *lol*). but I don't particularly fancy watching SRK, Hrithik or even Orlando Bloom for that matter in a bed scene in a flick. Takes the magic and imagination right out of the complete movie.

*nods solemnly* agreed on everything. ash.. she would be risking her international reputation now if she did a 'skin flick' in bad taste, so not likely. she has some arty movies too.. "choker bali" which is bengali [more high class than hindi movies ;-)] and raincoat [where her co-star is non other than kajol's hubby, ajay devgan. dammit, i meant for this to be a short reply. hahah. :-*

Thank you :) Yeah the new pics of Kajol ... she looks good, but not so ... Kajol-Dewanna anymore. She has grown up, and dammit I want a new movie with her and SRK. Something along the lines of an action movie, or along Swades. Perhaps even set totally in Mumbai or Dehli, some Hollywood meets Bollywood action, with a non-passive Hindi heroine.
Oh well one can always dream :)
