I haven’t worn a watch in years

Yesterday I purchased tickets for Liz and I to see Bonnie Prince Billy @ the Belly Up tavern. I am super excited, although the show is not until October 23rd.

Liz and I are watching the Dune Movies again. I still can’t believe my first introduction to these was Greg recording them at a friend’s house onto VHS tapes. When I kept askin him what was so good about this sci fi junk (cuz the movies are really half-assed) he kept replying “The worm is the spice.”

The movies, really, are nothing compared to the books. Only after you have read the books are the movies somewhat enjoyable.

Speaking of movies: Snakes on a plane is way too damn hyped up and is going to be a considerable dissapointment to those who have been following it since its inception. And I watched The Thing for the first time two weeks ago. Already, I want to watch it again.

Liz’s sister, Katherine, is coming down in three weeks (the last week of this month). Liz and I are taking the whole week off. This will be my first week of vacation since I started working a year and a half ago. A whole week! And I get the monday after it off because of Labor day! We don’t have many plans yet, but it will be great.

So, yeah: Bonnie in October. Week off in a bit. Let teh chillin commence!
