1.) Thrilling Two-Fisted Tales of Commuters Observed:
Yesterday, waiting for the Metro at the Virginia Square stop, there were two German high-school girls, on opposite platforms, yelling a conversation back and forth in German. Very surreal.
2.) Anyone else tired of news coverage about the Pope? Anyone? I know it's important and significant and all, but still.
3.) EW gallery comparing Sin City characters, from page to screen.
4.) As mentioned yesterday, RQ and I moved the computer from the basement into the living room. Room is smaller now, and I hope to teach tze bebe not to play with the exciting cables. (Much like I intent to teach the cats to stop sleeping on the monitor. Uphill battle.) RQ's been on a house-reorganizing kick recently, I won't complain. Means more video game time to me, and less sequestering in the basement in general. Basement's totally just for storage and laundry now.
Only snag was the cable-splitting didn't work like she thought it would, so home machine is offline until she hits the store to pick up another cable. Hopefully tonight. Hopefully.
5.) Picked up a new version of Mozart's Requiem at Borders over the weekend, as I misplaced my old copy. And damn if this one (Vienna Orchestra, I think) isn't twice as good as the old one.
6.) Hee. Downloadable guerilla posters for Firefly and Serenity.
