Tally of accomplishments, vol. 5
That's right, my Shakespeare paper finally got finished (except for some little editing things, like citations and stuff that I'm going to fix tomorrow) and I went ahead and celebrated that accomplishment thusly:
YES! I went to cult film night to see Ghostbusters, and it was incredible. An entire theater of people chanting along with Bill Murray as he says, "The flowers are STILL STANDING."
Here's that scene.
The theater was showing The Rocky Horror Picture Show tonight, too, so the lobby was full of Ghostbusters people and Rocky Horror people mingling (you could tell who was who because the Ghostbusters people had greasy hair and glasses, and the Rocky Horror people were wearing fishnets).
In addition to seeing the movie and the nine hours I spent finishing the Shakespeare paper (really), we also signed a lease this morning! We are the proud renters of the first floor of a house in Cleveland Heights! Such a full day. Incidentally, the house is right around the corner from my new favorite movie theater.

"I am Vince Clorthos! Keymaster of Gozer!"
I forget what the new address is right now, but I'll send it around to fam and friends. Phone numbers will stay the same.

You got me started...
*Dr. Peter Venkman: Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together... mass hysteria!
*Man at Elevator: What are you supposed to be, some kind of a cosmonaut?
Dr. Peter Venkman: No, we're exterminators. Someone saw a cockroach up on twelve.
*Dr. Peter Venkman: Someone blows their nose and you want to keep it?
*Dr. Peter Venkman: Ray has gone bye-bye, Egon...
*Dr Ray Stantz: Everything was fine with our system until the power grid was shut off by dickless here.
Walter Peck: They caused an explosion!
Mayor: Is this true?
Dr. Peter Venkman: Yes it's true.
[pause]
Dr. Peter Venkman: This man has no dick.
*Dr. Peter Venkman: Nobody choosed anything!
How about this classic from #2!?!?
*Peter Venkman: Doh!
Ray: Re!
Egon: Egon!

GAH! Ew. Ugh. Egon, your mucus.
Dr. Peter Venkman: This man has no dick.
(This line was met with applause, by the way.)
I still crack up every time I hear this line:
Venkman: You're right, no human being would stack books like this.

My favorite line from this move (and I can't say it verbatim) is when he meets Sigourney Weaver's son, Oscar and says, "Oh, he's named after a hot dog." (or something like that)

Good one, Mom (but it's from the sequel).
Want some mind-boggling information? That adorable baby Oscar is now of drinking age. Also, the original movie is older than my boyfriend.
