			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I might be the only person in the world who suffers from this affliction, but movies make me horribly, horribly nervous and uneasy. It is so bad that I rarely watch movies because I know that most likely, it is going to be an unpleasant experience. And now, if you didn&#8217;t already, you probably think that I am certifiably insane. But let me explain.</p>
<p>It seems that the whole purpose of a movie is that you don&#8217;t know how it ends. In fact, most times, you don&#8217;t really know the middle bit or the start either. Because if you did, then why would you waste your time and money seeing the movie. But what if you are the kind of person who gets horribly, horribly anxious about the unknown, even the fictional unknown? Well then not knowing how something is going to end is a terrible thing.</p>
<p>So what does a person who suffers from that do? Well, if they are like me, they look up the plot of the movie before they see it. But here is the thing about that. It sort of ruins the whole movie experience. Because a big part of seeing a movie is seeing how the plot unfolds. If you already know how it unfolds, then it is just kind of a big waste of time.</p>
<p>This leaves me in quite the predicament. If I don&#8217;t look up the plot, then I&#8217;m going to be nervous and freaking out the whole movie. If I do look up the plot, I&#8217;m going to be bored and not care. So what do I do? Well, in most cases, I just avoid movies all together. But that is kind of boring, really.</p>
<p>And just for the record, I feel the same way about TV shows. But since they are shorter than movies, I can usually tough it out. But I still end up looking up the plots to the show that I&#8217;m about to watch a fair amount of the time.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Kelly and I just finished watching <em>The Graduate</em> and are having a slight disagreement. So if you&#8217;ve seen the movie, I&#8217;d like your input.</p>
<p>Do you think that the ending of the movie is happy or sad? I won&#8217;t spoil it if you haven&#8217;t seen it, but if you have, let me know.</p>
<p>Also, did you know that it totally ripped off Wayne&#8217;s World 2?</p>
