Things for the New Year

[akaihyo]

Spent some time on New Year's Day cleaning up the library and imposing a little bit of order on Laura's studio. Things are looking a little better and more organized. Now I just need to get rid of some of the books I no longer need . . .

forvrin will be glad to hear that we started watching Peacemaker Kurgane, just the first disc as the second is currently out. Very good so far, though the sudden appearance of actual supernatural forces in episode four caught me entirely by surprise.

Last night I was flipping channel and managed to catch Sinbad the Sailor starring Douglas Fairbanks Jr. (who does all his own stunts). A fun romp through an Arabic world without Arabs, minimal but amusing special effects, amazingly fun (yet silly) costumes and sparkling dialog and dashing action sequences. A real gem of a movie. My Grade: A-

Happy new year! How fun to clean and organize and get rid of stuff. We're going to do that shortly, I think.

Thank you for the cute kitty toy for Alba's xmas. She's chewed on it several times, so I think she approves.

Dave's making his way over to Tyche at the moment to say howdy, if you're there.

Indeed I am and he did.

Hope all is well with you.

I feel slightly sick, to be honest. Under the weather.

If I were paranoid, I'd think that some federal agent had infected the population with a light strain of the bird flu in order to test its effects upon the health system. Hmm. Game plot?

At any rate, Alba and I are both lounging.

Just so you know, I am going to leave Durham shortly and should be in Athens by 7.

Heh. Yeah, the supernatural doesn't actually play out on the actual plot. I just kind of ignore it. I have no idea why its there. I'm hoping the Manga will explain it a bit better.

Happy New Year! You like the two gifts I gave you and Laura this year?

And best of luck for 2006!

Yes, thank you, the sweets were tasty and well enjoyed and the calendar is up at home.
