everyone who has ever read this blog is familiar with my restraining-order-level obsession with zooey deschanel, so i won't delve into it in any new depth here. however, i just wanted to say that as a result of my recent freakout over her and m.ward's collaboration (new m.ward album coming soon, hells yes), i seem to have forgotten that she's also been in a few of those...um...what do you call them? moving pictures?
so last night i went to see her new movie (jim carrey is also in it, but that's sort of incidental to my point). good christ, i'm glad women like that doesn't exist in the standard social sphere of american life experience or i would constantly be a total wreck. there have been a few women in my life over the years that, for various reasons directly connected to being attractive or badass or adorable or some mad combination of those things have basically reduced me to a flaming plane crash of idiocy and ga-ga-ness for a few weeks or months at a time. this would be like 1000 times worse.
the movie was decent, but i have the feeling i shouldn't have enjoyed it as much as i did...zooey has this ability to weave this gauzy audrey-hepburn-esque fog over any movie she's in, thus making it extremely palatable. if she's ever in an actually decent movie (okay, "hitchhiker's guide" was awesome) i'll probably have to own it and watch it a few times a day, to the detriment of the rest of my life/responsibilities.
