  • 16:19 I wish the weather would make up its mind, so I could decide whether to swim or not. I think about putting on my costume and clouds come up. #
  • 17:03 @chesea Oh, yeah. It's a swimsuit over here. #

Shit. I need to update this thing more often. I've pretty much switched to Facebook and Twitter.

I've been ridiculously busy at school. I have three papers due in the next two weeks, which, uh, means that I have 50 pages to write by June 10. Life is fun.

In my spare time, I've mainly been playing on our new PS3, which is glorious. I've almost finished Resident Evil 5, started Valkyria Chronicles, and co-oped my way through Lego Batman with Phil. I make him be Robin whenever I can, because I'm an evil fiancee. :P

I also saw Star Trek twice, and Terminator: Salvation once.

Do you ever do anything now that you swore you would never do when you were younger? What is it?

I eat spinach. All the Popeye propaganda in the world could not convince me that was a good idea when I was a child. Admittedly, I only eat raw, baby spinach before it has time to develop THAT taste, but it still counts.

Who is your favorite mother (the character, not the actress) from television or the movies?

The Alien Queen from the Alien series, of course.

I watched Sword the Valiant (an "adaptation" of Gawain and the Green Knight that earns every one of those scare quotes) with some friends last night. It was one of those gloriously bad movies that you have to watch in a group so you'll have people with whom to mock it. Gawain had a blond bob that would make Prince Valiant jealous, all the swords were aluminium and bent when being unsheathed, the cast included cunning seneschals and evil dwarfs and lecherous heirs . . . Oh, and it had Sean Connery covered in glitter to play the Green Knight. He sparkled like a Meyer vampire.

Then, Phil and I went to see the midnight showing of Wolverine with Nate, his girlfriend and a group of his girlfriend's friends. I enjoyed it much more than I thought I would a Wolverine themed movie. The action scenes were well-done if a little silly at times, Gambit looked pretty and acted reasonably smart, Jackman alternated between being angsty and violent. Basically, Gambit's ten minutes on screen were the most interesting part of the movie for me, but that's to be expected. The cameos were fun as usual.

I picked up The Wrestler on DVD today, so I'll be watching that tonight.

Hobbes has just jumped onto my lap and squeaked loudly at me, so I'm required to pay attention to the cat now. :P

Are you worried about catching the swine flu? Do you have a plan for avoiding contagion or dealing with quarantine?

It's apparently the new Black Death, accordings to one very responsible news outlet. So, a third of the population is going to die from it. I intend to kill all my cats, persecute my local witches and flagellate myself repeatedly, so I'll be safe.

Alternatively, I might move to the countryside with a group of aristocratic friends, and hold a storytelling contest to pass the time. That might be better. I like the cat.
