So the film adaptation of Chuck Palahniuk's novel Choke is coming out, looks better than I thought it would be, though Victor Mancini looked nothing like that in my head. Diane from Trainspotting appears to be playing Dr Paige Marshall, which can;t be anything but good, though her fake American accent sounds all kinds of wrong. It'd be nice if she could just speak with her Scottish accent, then again, I could listen to a Scottish person read the telephone book and be completely enthralled. It'll be fun to see just how faithful to the novel some of the film's sex scenes will be, as i remember some fairly explicit stuff which may or may not involve anal beads- guess we'll have to wait and see.
According to my chinese Zodiac year, my ideal professions are:

Currently reading Crime by Irvine Welsh; it centers around Ray Lennox from Filth, which by chance i happened to re-read for the third time over the summer (wailed like a baby at the end for the third time too!). So far so good - its the first time Welsh immerses his characters in America as opposed to Edinborough. His descriptions of Miami so far are completely bang on!
It took me 4 hours to fall asleep last night - though i managed to get a few hours in before getting called in to work. Not that i'm complaining - they're shutting the Montreal PDC down Nov. 30th,. But more on that when i'm less tired. and angry.
