The Go-Getter - A Justin Suggested moviefilm

So I just finished a moviefilm whatever last night I quite enjoyed. It's called the Go-Getter. It's a wandering type love story with some nice subtleties. I never saw a preview of the movie and something tells me it might ruin the movie and the simple complexity thing it has going. So why did I pick it up in the movie store then? (yes, a rental) Well, it had a Volvo station wagon on the cover of it. An old one, a 240 for those who are familiar. Old friends would know that significance for me. We used to have a fleet here. My dad had a 740 turbo, my mom had a 850 and my sister had a 240. But if you count all the Volvo's the number comes to 6. 3x 240 (beige and two silver) 2x 740 (red and goldmember) and the 850. Wow all these numbers. There's something kind of inspiring about a roadtrip in a car with such personality and hmm... noises as an old Volvo. They're solid cars no doubt. One of the 850's we had we nicknamed the classic. It made so many noises that if you got into it for the first time you'd think it was on it's last leg. The key? Turn the radio up just a little bit louder. Sweet!

Anyway, if you're like me and appreciate a little bit of an emo story, star crossed lovers (without the cheese) and a story that makes you feel just a little less helpless, definitely check this out. The music is great and it's got a little quirkiness to it. I know I'm not doing this justice but if you for some reason decide to actually check the movie out let me know what you think about it. Did you like it, hate it, want me to give you money for the rental and wasting your time and money. Seriously. I'm gonna see if I can just buy it. I can't seem to rip it and I'm highly doubting I'd be able to find it anywhere else.

I'm totally rambling about nothing, it's a beautiful day, and there's so much to do and time to enjoy so I'm gonna get to it. Spring cleaning day and laundry. I'll figure out a reason to get out in the car today as well, anyone need taxi service? I'm up for it. Let's rock!

To anyone that's reading, put a smile on along with your shoes and jacket and get outside for a nice walk. I bet it'll brighten your day to hear the world around outside no matter if it's the sounds of traffic and the streets, trains in the distance, crazy shoppers, random conversation, the homeless looking for change, people stereos playing too loud, running water, birds and nature or the wind howling in your ears. Enjoy!

Love and rock!
