the wackness

sometimes movies come along that just fit into your life, your heart, your mind at the right time. Cinematic Kismet. I watched a movie last night that did just that. I laughed out loud, cried a little and felt it in my gut. It was real. Superbly acted, impeccably written and for lack of a less cheesy description, just downright heartwarming.

"What movie? WHAT MOVIE?!" you ask.

THE WACKNESS, baby. The freaking WACKNESS. Loved it.

Although the central character is a drug dealer, Luke Shapiro has got to be one of the most likeable characters I've seen in a long time. He's street smart and cool despite his lack of popularity and yet retains this purity and innocence that hopefully we all remember having.

But enough about that....Here is a snippet of an IM conversation that most definitely did NOT happen at work today. I cut out all the cheesy sweet stuff I said about Tommy in the beginning cuz I think we all know I like him....

BIGMAC [9:34 AM]:

BUCHER, JUNI [9:34 AM]:

BUCHER, JUNI [9:34 AM]:

BIGMAC [9:35 AM]:

BUCHER, JUNI [9:35 AM]:

BUCHER, JUNI [9:35 AM]:

BIGMAC [9:36 AM]:

BUCHER, JUNI [9:36 AM]:

BIGMAC [9:38 AM]:

BUCHER, JUNI [9:38 AM]:

BIGMAC [9:38 AM]:
Otherwise, it might not be believable
BUCHER, JUNI [9:38 AM]:
