I just returned home from the most wonderful film! It is called “Choke” It is an independent US film and boasts a great cast including the glorious Anjelica Huston. See the official website on Lynne’s Links.
“Choke” is about Victor. We see the world thru Victor’s eyes. Victor is a sex addict. Victor’s mum (the sublime Anjelica Huston – I swear she is otherworldly…) is crazy and resides in a mental institution. Victor let’s us in on some of his sexual escapades which he seems to have had with everyone on staff at the hospital at which his mum resides. Victor made some big sacrifices to pay for mom’s care. Victor lets us see his life with mom as a young boy. It seemed very confusing. It’s amazing Victor survived. Victor has trouble connecting with women on an emotional level. Victor loves to fuck but he can’t love. But we still like Victor – a lot.
Victor is a slacker and is true indie film slacker fashion he has goofy friends who have equally goofy lives that amuse us. Did I mention that one of Victor’s quirks is his ability to choke on food at will, enlisting the aid of a good samaritan who saves his life, stays in touch and sends money ever afterwards, which in turns helps Victor pay mum’s bills at the fancy mental hospital.
I encourage everyone to go see “Choke”. It is funny, and poignant and even has a twist in the end.
Hey, even Victor found love & redemption at the end of his movie. It got me to thinking how I really would like a lover right now. Not a fuck buddy or an “on call” booty call, but a friend I could count on, to hold hands with, to see movies with, to make love to, to rub my shoulder and share knowing smiles and chuckles with. Oh I’d like him to have a big penis too. Hey , it’s my wish list damn it!!
This is the first time in a long time that I have really felt “it” – the desire for a partner – loneliness. OY!! Damned movies! They do it every time!!
On the upside, I have lost some weight. I feel good and I cleaned my damned house – finally!!!
Next, I will get the ‘ole home gym back in running order. It’s been serving as a catch all, clothes hanging room lately. Note the dust on my free weights! Even the teddy bear appears listless. OOPS!
This is my lat bar on my Bowflex. It serves very well as a evening gown/feather head dress hanger but after this entry is posted, it will become a lat bar once again.
