Woo! After this post I’ll be all caught up. Until I have to write about today, anyway.
So let’s see… yesterday…
Woke up at 7:30 to go pick up Ian from the airport. After we got back, read some comics… I just got the old Batman vs. Predator mini-series. It was alright. Gave Ian the Frank Miller Batman stuff — The Dark Knight Returns and The Dark Knight Strikes Again. Both amazingly good!
Played Yahoo Pool with Jackie for a bit, but I scratched so much I considered taking up DJing. I did alright at first, but after a couple of games, my head hurt from contemplating all the angles, and things went downhill.
Made myself a nice breakfast burrito for lunch, and watched Layer Cake. Great movie! It’s in the same vein as Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels and Snatch, if you’ve seen those. Great story, great acting, and great camera work. The transitions between scenes were awesome. Especially after watching wipe after wipe in Star Wars. Oh, and Sienna Miller’s in it. Not a large role, but I enjoyed her screentime.
Talked to Peggy for a bit before she left for Berkeley to hang out with some friends, and she reminded me to “Be safe, and always use a condom” on my trip to Minnesota. Wow… I don’t know what you do on your family vacations, Peggy, but… yeah…
Played a game of Literati to kill an hour, and then it was time for Will O’s BBQ. Picked up Drew and headed over there. We were on time, and the first ones there. People did show up, though. Food was good. (How can authentic Korean BBQ not be?) My chicken was alright, but I wish I had let it marinade longer. Didn’t get to try Drew’s chicken, but Randy said it was magically delicious. And changes flavors with every bite. Genie said it was nasty, and left an after-taste like no other. I’m not sure who to believe, but I’ll side with Randy, since Genie is a bit of a picky eater, and I’m not. Hot-tubbed for a bit afterwards, and then went home.
Took a shower when I got back to get all the chlorine off. Chatted and listened to music for the rest of the night. Quote goes to Aaron R, for giving me a new nickname.
“Hey Dinhosaur! If I’m the first to use that, I’m patenting it. No one else gets to call you that.”- Aaron R.
And it’s weird how he wanted me to send him AIM and AIMutation, because Aaron L had asked for the same thing a couple hours earlier.
Anyways, in the middle of chatting, I laid down on my mattress (was washing my sheets at the time) because the box fan blows cool air from outside right over my bed, and promptly passed out.
I got dibs on Aladdinh.
