Too Cool…

In

From Reuters.com:

George W. Bush won the “Razzie” worst actor of the year award on Saturday for his performance as president in “Fahrenheit 9/11″

…

The president not only was named worst male actor in a leading role, he also won for being half of the year’s worst screen couple when paired with either Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice or “My Pet Goat,” the book he was reading to schoolchildren on the morning of Sept. 11.

…

Two other “Fahrenheit” stars were “honored.” Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld was named worst supporting actor and pop star [Britney] Spears won for worst supporting actress for a clip in which she declared blind faith in Bush’s policies while popping chewing gum.

Wedding

In

I’ve been in Auckland for the last week. One of the guys I lived with for the last two years is getting married tomorrow, and I’m one of the groomsmen. It’s quite exciting, but somewhat odd all at the same time.

Also, weddings take a ridiculous amount of organising. Pfwah!

Visiting Home

In

My life is becoming a series of visits to places that used to be home. I’m currently in Auckland, and staying at the house I lived in for the last two years. In fact, I got up on Monday, had my shower, checked my email, went downstairs, and got halfway through breakfast before I thought “wait a minute, I don’t actually live here anymore.”

I’m not sure what to make of it. In some ways, I am finding that I have no single place that I call home. I am at home in so many places. At the same time, I am finding that I move on from places, and find myself thinking “it’s nice to be back to visit, but I’m happy not to live here anywhere.”

Is it better to have one home somewhere, and other places are just places to stay? Or is it good to have lots of homes? I think I’m just one of nature’s wanderers.
