yendiIt's commencement day today, which means that ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
demetria23 enters bachelordom, and jet_li_wannabe gets to call himself "doctor jet_li_wannabe." Woohoo!
It also means that the drive to work today and the process of parking afterwards were, well, not fun. At all.
On the plus side, had Ethiopian food last night withthryn, docorion, shadesong, and Elayna (who tried a little of the bread and basically napped the rest of the time, as she'd been at a friend's sleepover the night before and claimed to be running on two hours of sleep). Was quite yummy.
While Elayna was at her sleepover (and these people, let me tell you, have the biggest dog I've ever seen -- 150 pounds, and I swear she's at least 33% horse), we took advantage of the opportunity to see an R-rated movie, and caught Unleashed, which was quite good (and quite stolen by Bob Hoskins).
Alas, my internet connection at home has gone from suck to blow, and it's too frustrating to attempt to read or post during the weekends now. Grr.
I did manage to read two more Kinsey Millhone books, and about six graphic novels, all good things (especially since I've finally read volumes one and two of Sleeper. I'd enjoyed the concept and character when they were introduced in Point Blank, but now I'm just blown away. Highly recommended.

It's amazing how six episodes could be so memorable and awesome!

Date: 2005-05-18 01:34 pm (UTC)That sums it up in a nutshell.
Plus, I admit that I've got a mild squick factor at graphic animal deaths.
Yeah, the art was great, but the story didn't really properly address the Jason side of things.
