8 Mile Road

First off: great movie.
Yes, kind of the typical "rags to riches" cliche, but it's a totally different style.
It's something that I can relate to.
The crazy mom that depends on men to make it through the day.
The disregard from that same mom for the kids.
The eviction/bill notices.
The alcohol abuse.
The physical abuse.
The shitty friends and the good friends.
The psychotic women.
The crappy factory job.

Everything about that movie embodies why I like Eminem. I really can relate to the things he says in his songs.
He is the reason that I like what Levi and Ski refer to as "gangsta rap". I have always liked the beats of hip-hop songs and since I can understand what they're talking about for the most part, so it doesn't bother me.


Second part: For the love of the game. Another great movie. Kevin Costner is a badass. Nuff said.


Finally: I have some ridiculous insomnia. I have been laying down since 1130. It's currently 405 as I type this. I've gotten up a handful of times despite my urge to sleep. Unfortunately, I have been starving since I got home from Taco Bell and have been unable to get full. Hard to cook food when everyone else is going to sleep and has work in the morning.
