Can I just say that I think Charlie Kaufman is one of the most brilliant and fresh writers in showbusiness today?  Granted, the movie I just saw wasn't purely written by him, it was based upon the book by Chuck Barris, BUT it was still brilliant!  I own every single one of his movies that are available on DVD... For those of you keeping track they are (in chronological order):

I want to see Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind too.  In fact, I bought Confessions, Human Nature and Adaptation without having seen the movies first.  All I have to say is that they are absolutely brilliant.  ALSO! George Clooney did an amazing job directing.  The photography is extremely well done, along with the lighting.  I love, love, love the mood that is present. In fact, it very much looks like something I might do. 

Anyhow, I highly reccomend Confessions... MOST EXCELLENT!

Ok, so I'm watching this movie (Confessions of a Dangerous Mind, btw), and for some reason I can't just turn off my head.  I came to the re-realization of a pattern, one that has resurfaced again.  I don't want what's easy.  In fact, I can't stand what's easy.  It's nice and all, but it's not for me. 

I need to work towards something.  If it's just given to me, I almost always instictively move away from it.  I know this probably doesn't make a whole lot of sense to anyone but me, but it really explains a lot about something that's been bugging me lately, and I just needed to write it out.

I need challenge.  I need strife.  I need chaos.  Without them, I get bored.  When I'm bored, I stagnate.  Damn.  When I look at “it” this way, it's so plain to see what the problem was, er... is.  Now if I can just do something about it.
