we're back.
right before i left i was in jakarta for a few days, and while walking around with friends i saw an ad for that movie by the same guys who did Scarey Movie, but this one is called Super Hero Movie, and the theater had taped paper over the cleavage of the main female characters depicted in the poster... well, everyone is fasting for ramadan/lebaran and trying to be especially pure... but then right next to that poster was ads for this movie:

hantu means ghost and aborsi means abortion.

I'm not making any judgements, im just telling you. this is how it is.

there were a lot of horror films i saw advertized based around various types of ghosts - hantu ambulance, hantu kereta (train), hantu jeruk purut (orange peel), etc. and most of them had that lady from the ring in there somewhere. which is nice i suppose. for the people who copyrighted that character. if they have some free time, they can try to recoup some stuff. you know, rainy day kind of work.

this week i feel like i am looking at all the rainy day work i have amassed over the past year and the pile is so big its overwhelming. and its not even raining today. but it sort of feels like it is. i am always cold now. yesterday my friend naia said that it probably wont get warm again and i wanted to start crying. but, as i emailed my friend in west java, coming home at the very least means that my heart is warm again. which is wonderful. patrick is now painting the bathroom. we have a new apartment. come visit.
