Rest in peace Brittany Murphy

I watched the 1980s Batman movie starring Michael Keaton today on TV. After close scrutiny, I can say that it is not a real Batman movie. The most important characteristic about the Batman psyche is that Batman refuses to kill. In this 1980s version, Batman is killing left and right. That is not Batman. But Christian Bale's Batman got it right.

I think the 1-eyed-maid, Linda, thinks I'm grossed out by her having only 1 eye ...

LINDA: Do you need anything else?
[I accidentally glance at her missing eye and instinctively look down]
LINDA: Oh, sorry.

Dammit. My bad. But no one should have to apologize because they only have 1 eye. And then I found a hair in the corned beef. The other maids tried to investigate how that happened. Apparently, Linda was the 1 who cooked the corned beef. I lost my appetite and simplified the English to explain ...

RYAN: I'm not hungry.

They all laughed.

I called my mommy since she'll be arriving tomorrow. She was stressed out trying to get the luggage under the 50 pound weight limit, so she told me to call back later. I called later. She was at the airport complaining how the line was long. She told me to call back later. I called later. She was complaining how she couldn't carry her bag and hold the phone at the same time. Ha.

We visited my dad in the hospital. He's out of the ICU now. But we had to move him to a smaller room. 2 of the doctors working on him are friends of the family. They agreed to work on my dad for free since he had no job. But if they saw my dad had 1 of the swanky rooms, it might contradict our story that my dad had no money. So we moved hom to a really small room to keep the story consistent. But at least he has a TV.

Speaking of which, the news says that a volcano will definitely reupt. But fortunately, it's 310 miles away from us.

Then my dad and I made fun of my mommy some more.

I finally ate some of that casava cake that Lola Ellie brought during dinner. Baby Samantha forgot her Barney stuffed toy at the dinner table. That never happens. I put it on my lap. Then she returned to the kitchen and took it back like a diva.

I can't believe I have to wake up at 4:45AM to help pick up my mommy from the airport.

In closing, I found out Brittany Murphy passed away. Clueless was aight. But I liked her recurring appearances in Party of Five and Boy Meets World, and her roles on King of the Hill, Riding in Cars with Boys, Sin City, and my personal favorite 8 Mile (alongside Eminem).
