Starting to run on fumes...
...cake fumes, that is...
It's been a busy week! Christmas, my birthday, boxing week shopping, New Years right around the corner...I've been buzzing around with the family, visiting family and friends and generally having a good time. I've seen a bunch of extended family and friends that I haven't seen in a long time, and had been missing, so that was really great.
Went to the Science Centre today, saw "Bugs" at the Omnimax Theatre. Cinematography was great, but the idea was a tad less exhilirating than that of others I've seen. Greatest/coolest part was seeing an ant extremely close up and watching it drink from a water droplet, which it was also floating on top of. Saw "The Pursuit of Happyness" and "The Holiday"; the first was actually pretty depressing...the second was fluffy and okay.
I've begun reading "Alice's Adventures In Wonderland" (or the two stories that make it up), which I have never read, so I'm catching up on my later 1800s lit. I also have plans to read Mark Leyner's "Et Tu, Babe" and the graphic novel of "V for Vendetta", among a long list of things to read.
Music? Spinning whatever comes up. I know it's the year-end-- I don't make lists; however, I must note that I did enjoy Thom Yorke's "The Eraser", Hot Chip's "The Warning", Sunset Rubdown's "Shut Up I Am Dreaming", The Flaming Lips' "At War With The Mystics", most of Justin Timberlake's "Futuresex/Lovesounds", The Rapture's "Pieces of the People We Love", Hellogoodbye's "Zombies! Aliens! Vampires! Dinosaurs!", and "Show Your Bones" by the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. Aaaaaaaaand I guess I just made a list there. Aaaaaaaaaaand that's it from me for the day.

Sunset Rubdown is my album of the year.
Also, V for Vendetta any good in its novel form? I got a lot of graphic novels for Christmas but that is one I did not.
Carry on.

Sunset Rubdown is up there on the list for me too; mine wasn't in any order.
Haven't read the novel form of V yet...I flipped through it at Chapters, it's style is quite different than Watchmen, the colours aren't as strong...more like a watercolour.
