Weekend Pwnz All

[xifeng]

I have the distinct feeling that I am not supposed to be overjoyed about being packed home on account of my shit performance, but I am. I mean, hey, three hours of work vs. five? Noooo argument.

Mom and I went to the movies yesterday, on my urging; we saw The Other Boleyn Girl at the cheap seats, and then went to see Prince Caspian at the not-so-cheap seats. I had been afraid it would suck, because I remember the Narnia books fondly from my childhood and the first movie was so good, but was not let down; Mom spent the last half-hour of the movie afraid to go to the bathroom and miss anything.

Also we went to the Tin Fish today; I ♥ the Tin Fish, and had a really good grilled salmon with coleslaw.

I have to work tomorrow, but who cares because it's only six and a half hours (max), and then I'm free like cheesy bread until 4 p.m. on Thursday. There is definitely going to be PSG on Tuesday night, and there may also be a trip to Bloomington.

I'm glad you liked Prince Caspian. A lot of ppl on my flist have been disappointed with it.

Well, I mean, of course it's not the movie I've been making in my head since I was 8, but I don't think it turned out that badly. There were some things I did find a bit problematic, but some of it was necessary because books and film are two different genres and what works in one would be boring in another (*coughEXPOSITIONcough*).

Now I need to read your flist out of curiosity *g*

I've never read the book, so I think I'm safe *g*

OMG YOU PHILISTINE *g* I did actually read some of your flist, but I couldn't get that far back in the archives because your flist is vast and huge *g*

Let's face it, they were probably locked entries anyway, just to THWART you.

*emoemoemo* NO1 LUVZ MEEEE. *angstangstangst* It could also be that their locked entries are just not that interesting. A bit like mine, really *g*

[tara]

Yeah, I always think people are better off NOT being added by me, because then they don't have to read the locked angsty entries *g*

what did you think of the other boleyn girl?
if you liked the movie... don't read the book...
very disappointed personally!

It was enjoyable, but I was faintly disappointed (maybe because I'd bought the book but haven't read it yet--I like Philippa Gregory, though); I'd expected it to be more complex, somehow.
