lauralhOK I finished all the Harry Potter books.
I then read three Sherlock Holmes books (Reg lambasted me for reading them on my phone instead of the omnibus he has, but I have weak wrists), and we watched the recent Sherlock Holmes movie. He actually is canonically good at boxing and fencing, ok. And Watson was in combat in Afghanistan. Knowing that makes the movie more enjoyable. Well, also, watching it as a movie about a gay couple breaking up. It's better than I remembered it for these reasons, I guess.
Saturday we went to hang out with Jack and Keely (and Jack's old roommate Tyler); we ate burritos and watched Clue while playing Clue, then watched Orgazmo. I told the story about how Holger once invented an Orgazmo villain, the Butt Lord, who lived in a Butt Mansion and drove a Butt Car - and had a butler. That joke is funnier at 3am.
At home I watched Traffic, the new American miniseries, not the movie or the British miniseries. It still has intersecting character plots, but a lot moreso. And there's an actual plot in the end, which made it a helluva lot more captivating. (I'd watched the British miniseries the week before; except for a young Juliet Binoche it had little to offer.)
And now Reg is cawing so I gotta run.
