For once I'm coming back to work feeling like I had a real weekend. The lawn got raked & mowed (at least the percentage that's viewable by the neighbors), got a night out on the town with my better half (Lost in Translation is the best written film I've seen this year), got 10% of our holiday shopping completed (I need to buy stock in Toys R Us), got the kitchen rearranged (the curse of moving into a house with a toddler......nothing gets done right away) and had dinner with Mr. and Mrs. RetroGrouch (good dialogue & wine was shared).
Important lessons were learned from watching the Paris Hilton sex tape excerpt. When making your own home videos, follow the rules below.
- Position your camera speaker away from the TV if you choose to keep it on.
- If the TV is on, choose a more subtle show to watch or keep viewing in context.
- Turn on the lights.
- If you prefer darkness augmented only by the glow of the TV, remember... night vision makes you look like a deer being spotlighted by a poacher. Avert your eyes from direct contact with the camera lens.
- Do not answer your cell phone during sex, voice mail was invented for just this reason.
- Most important lesson, do not label your super-personal tapes, no matter how proud of them you are.
I think I am the only person on earth yet to see "Paris by Night".
