Wear, Watch, Want #287: The Silly Rafting Vacation Edition

Wear: Silly Goose University Sweatshirt

My friend bought this sweatshirt for me and I’ve been wearing it a TON. Summer in Seattle, we can do these types of things. But come fall? I’m going to be repping my alma mater virtually every day.

Watch: River Wild

This is a “remake” of The River Wild and while I don’t remember every beat of The River Wild, the only thing it and River Wild have in common is being held hostage on a rafting trip. The titles are simultaneously too similar and too dissimilar to make sense. But I liked it! It’s just a weird non-remake remake. River Wild has Leighton Meester and Adam Brody, real life marrieds, playing hostage and hostage taker/near constant murderer, respectively. This is probably the biggest draw, but when I tell you this movie is tense and tight I am not kidding. It’s a solid 3 star thriller, but by my scale if a movie’s runtime is between 85 and 100 minutes it gets a bonus star, so at 95 minutes River Wild is a 4 star-er.

Want: Travel Pillow Cube

I was shopping for extra Pillow Cube pillow cases, and I stumbled upon Pillow Cube’s presumably perfect follow up to the original: A travel Pillow Cube. It compresses down and fits in a small bag that easily fits in a suitcase. I have zero travel plans coming up, but I still want a Travel Pillow Cube. Might have to plan a vacation to justify buying myself one.
