Ahhh, married life… April 29, 2006

Ain’t it great?

Sometime last week, after Chris and I had tucked ourselves nicely into bed and fallen sweetly to sleep, I awoke to an odd sensation. Something was doing something to my ankle. My sleep-fogged brain wasn’t very sure what was going on, but as I moved from comatose to conscious, I realized what was happening–Chris was pinching my ankle with his toes.

Now why he was doing this, I am still not sure, and he denies any memory of such an odd action, but I still have to wonder what he was dreaming about.

Glad he keeps his toenails trimmed.

Aeon Flux came out on DVD yesterday, and it should land in my mailbox today courtesy of Netflix. I can’t wait to watch it again! That is one fantastic movie, let me tell you. It’s one of the few movies about a girl that doesn’t end up making her just a prop for the main guy who shows up halfway through. Don’t get me wrong–I don’t have anything against movies with male main characters, but a movie that bills itself as about a girl should be about a girl, and Aeon Flux does that well. Props to the director!

The movie is worth watching for its acting (Charlize Theron, come on!) and special effects, but the philospohical take on life intrigued me the most. It walks the line between the price of perfect safety and the value of life as it comes with all its inherent risks. I like it a lot. Definitely worth watching more than once, and really pretty clean (violence and a few skimpy costumes, but no profanity–a welcome change).

With a nod to Camille’s site, this is rather a fun little test.

I came up as Caspian: “As Prince Caspian you are a noble, goodhearted but mischievous scallywag! Fun loving, you are admired for your easy going nature.”

Please welcome the latest addition April 25, 2006

This blog has undertaken the reorganization and updating of the sidebar. Please note that the wedding pictures have been moved to the brand new Fun Links section (because this blog thinks that being married is fun and also that speaking in the third person is amusing to this blog and probably annoying to everybody else) and that links have been added to The Button and Homestarrunner, each of which this blog considers to be a fantastic way to waste time. The musically inclined portion of this blog’s audience will appreciate The Music Genome Project.

(OK, so this blog has been reading too much Dave Barry, but this blog thinks there are few people more amusingly addictive.)

We hate billboards, but… April 25, 2006

It could be worse, folks.
