Day 72


January 10th, 2024

It is starting to become quite the chore of watching this movie and finding things to write about. I believe I went into this quickly and ignored what some people told me. I’ve been taking things slowly with the writing because I am re-adjusting to the non-holiday work schedule. But I am pondering just writing on event days. Which to me would be day write up to date 75. Then touch base on days 100, 150, 200, 250, 300, and 355 til the end of the project. I do plan on wrapping up the deleted scenes for days 73, 74, and 75. Instead of focusing on a scene, I will break up what’s left.

I also have the first dose of Ocrevus tomorrow which has been on my mind. I’ve never done an IV treatment outside of the steroid treatments for MS episodes back in the day. I’ve been off medicine for over six months and I am thankful that I haven’t had an episode. I have noticed some leg and arm tremors but they come and go. My speech hasn’t slurred much but my cognitive memory is starting to fade slightly.

What am I looking forward to? Getting back to normal. I will take things a day at a time.

I do enjoy writing about the film more than I do watching it. My rating for it in Letterboxd has gone from an original 4.5 down to a 3-star rating.

Day 51

Day 51 December 20th, 2023  So again, I am just watching the movie for the sake of watching it. As much as I want to review more deleted scenes or sequences today, I am not feeling it. I am starting to wonder if this will take a toll on me mentally. It is like a daily chore like brushing your teeth or showering just to watch it. I know that I have a lot going on outside of watching the film, and seasonal depression is probably kicking in if you couldn't tell from some of the anti-Christmas stuff I was saying yesterday. For the record, I once liked Christmas, then I saw how dysfunctional my family became after my father passed away, and we were able to only get a handful of good Christmas Eve nights. It started going downhill after I had my colon resection. I do blame myself for the start of the decline. I ripped my brother's family a new hole because I took all my pain out on them. This was when I grew less fond of letting the kids do whatever they wanted. I did not yell at the

Day 100

Day 100 February 7th, 2024 Is it over? I will be the first to admit that the first 100 days were tough. It all seems easy on paper but in practice this sucks. I feel like I could have applied myself to something better and something that could improve my overall mental state along with my health. Instead, I do the opposite and strangely I am somewhat okay with that. Theories... Theories... Theories. I have written quite a few theories about this movie and to be honest that is what is making the project fun. The movie is pretty much cut and dry but for me to survive I have to look into the film and find some deeper meaning towards certain aspects. Do I honestly feel that some of the crackpot theories I’ve written hold some weight, yes. It is my opinion of things and how I see them and in ways envisioned them and interpreted them. I feel that being able to express them in a medium that I prefer it is allowing me to enjoy what I am doing. Someday I’d like to adventure into a podcast about

Pee Wee

  Day338 October 2, 2024 I loved the Pee Wee Herman reference in the film with the line, "I know you are but what am I?" It was a humorous and nostalgic moment that added a touch of lightheartedness to the scene.
