300 was the shit, being sick is shitty

Watched 300 last night with some friends and I have to say that it's one of the best movies that I have watched in a long time. I'm already a big fan of Greek history and mythology and this movie really did it for me. The fight scenes were insane! They were bloody as hell, but not full of gore. My gf enjoyed it, must have been okay.



The Persians in the movie were hella weird though. I have no idea where they got some of the dudes they were fighting with. The executioner that they had seemed like the Butcher from Diablo II, but had blades welded into his arms. That's pretty hardcore. The freaking war elephants that they brought were hilarious and stupid. They could have easily just did a side sweep and kicked the Spartans off the cliff, but they were too scared to get hurt by a few spears. They deserved to fall off the cliff like they did.

After watching that, I wanted to watch my overdue rentals so I could try and rush them back in the AM to see if I could avoid the late fee. Unfortunately I just passed out and woke up around noon with the gnarliest headache this year. I got up and tried to go watch those DVDs, but man, this one took me back out. I think it was a combo of sinus HA, tension HA, malaise (muscle pain), and somnolence (aka...feeling SHITTY).

I took some Tylenol and that got me through one of the DVDs. Had some bowl ramen to give me some energy. After the movie, shittiness crept back in and I this time I popped some Tylenol Cold and Flu which has some dextrometorphan and phenylephrine also and passed out for another 3 hours or so. That seemed to do the trick. Feeling better now.

Gonna eat some sam-gep-sal now. Hurray! :)
