Wonderful weekend!

plumtreeblossom and I have been having a wonderful weekend so far, with a fun PMRP work day painting some big pieces of Foley equipment, good food, a bad movie but with wonderful company, discovering a new neighbourhood near plumtreeblossom’s place, and a fabulous birthday party with an utterly spectacular birthday cake¹, a lovely and charming birthday boy and girl with very good taste in friends, lots of people we knew, lots of new people to meet, and excellent conversation. And now we’re about to run out for a pleasant breakfast. It’s a good weekend, and even the rain is kind of cozy-seeming.

¹ Flourless death-by-chocolate, topped with a layer of strawberries, a layer of tiramisù, and a layer of hard chocolate. I want to learn to make that. And then I want to become independently wealthy so I can hire people to make it for me and to cart me around in my wheelbarrow. It might have to be a double-wide.

Yeah, Deep Impact isn't great cinema, but when compared to its contemporary competition for asteroid-apocalypse mindshare, it absolutely shines.

My taste in disaster movies is that I like the disaster to come first, so that the rest of the movie is about the aftermath. By about 3/4ths through the movie I was getting blue balls for the KABOOM. By then I wanted the earth to shatter into smithereens (because you can want that sort of thing when its a movie) and all I got was a tidal wave. Still, it was good gray-day watching.
