Quiet so far...but it's not after eleven yet.
No - not at all.... she's been feelin' sick... I pinged her - over there...
*every* time I see him I think of his Gigalo Joe character from AI and it just creeps me out. *shudder*
I created a programming problem to keep me occupied ... I'm busy tormenting Microsoft MVPs with my questions.
There aren't all-night stores, but there's Rat Shack, there's Fry's (ick spit) ... and then there are the online stores. And then there's the cool local stores.
Hello all!
I am so glad that this week is over.
Heh...thankfully my brothers told me I didn't wanna watch AI.
Evenin' folkses...!! [sip]
It's friday... or something like it. Need to do some power shopping this weekend.
MVPs?
Yeah...tough getting a hold of people this time of year. I'm just still worried that I'm not gonna get my chance to interview. But we shall see. Maybe they just decided to start fresh on Monday - do all the contacting and interviewing next week. Here's hoping!
Heh...my method of Christmas shopping (which worked well, actually) is to just go out and meander for a few hours, grabbing an item for each person as I spot things that appeal. I did NO planning...but it worked probably faster than if I had.
I just hope I can get stuff mailed out in time. I'm more worried on that score.
I liked it better the second time through. Mostly because I didn't have to try to guess where the heck the story was going. Zooming out and looking at the whole story improves the experience - which shouldn't be confused with it being a great experience. Spielberg tried to tell way too many stories in one film. Less is more - especially when dealing with tens of thousands of years.
Well, I think we've put off the lefse making... it's at least not tomorrow.
The main thing that bugged my brothers - and what bugs me about other Spielberg films - is that the message more or less seemed to be that there isn't anything special about being human. As if robots can ever equal human life.

yah. Better this way.
Mmmwell... gotta go do evening chores. Am doing a quick shopping trip tomorrow to get the last two items on my list and get to the grocery store for last minute things. Then it's cook, clean, wrap presents, blah blah blah.
That movie looks interesting! I just put it on top of our Netflix queue.
I'm still deciding when to bake. Don't wanna do it too early...but I guess I gotta do it soon. Maybe Monday...mail stuff out Tuesday. Or so.
I actually kinda enjoyed A.I., but I might be biased because the score is one of my all-time favorites. One of John Williams' best, IMHO.
