What was one of the best things about the date-night my wife and I got to share together tonight?  Being able to visit a grocery store that sells Kettle brand Spicy Thai chips!  Yum!  We bought just two bags, and that was showing considerable restraint.

Spicy Thai chips have the most delicious ginger taste, and the sort of spiciness that requires you to eat more.  It's a wonder that I was able to hold myself back long enough to take this photo:



After that, we saw Juno at the Sundance Theater that used to be the Kabuki Theater in Japantown.  I remember when the Kabuki Theater had first been renovated by AMC, and thought it was pretty nice then.  Many years have passed, and it became run down.  I didn't know what to expect when Sundance took over last year.

Wow.  It's pretty elite.  You get to reserve your seats in the theater, and you can buy alcohol at the little restraurants in there.  It'd make for a posher dinner-and-movie experience than your average one.

Back in the day, the story was that the group's name was the ages of all the members.  Sum 41.  Bunch of losers.  I've been secretly in training, and now I can do that all by myself.

What's the word of the day today?  Bibulous.

Which also reminds me of my birthday!  Why haven't I been blogging?

Blame it on Walking with the Dinosaurs.  (Rawr!!  Having a five year old boy is the best!)  Van Gogh Double Espresso Double Caffeine Coffee Infused Vodka.  (Ice cold!  Seriously yummy.)  Surfing the web.  (Reading your posts!)  Much Guitar Hero.  Climbing at Planet Granite.

I've also had a web service magically fixed for me!  (My report of the problem, with an interim fix in the replies.)  Weeks later, on my birthday, Ozgur Huseyinoglu replied in private email with a full fix!  W00T!  It'll probably be committed to the repository soon.

What have I been reading?  I'm all about (typically Greek) god antics:  Anansi Boys. Gods Behaving Badly.  Now, Good Omens is in the queue.

What have I been watching?  Well, I knew I'm all about Focus.  Just saw Eastern Promises.  Seriously, I'll watch a film simply if Focus is associated with it.  Surprisingly, Viz, (whose comics I used to read) is finding its way into my home again.  I'm watching Taste of Tea after having enjoyed Linda Linda Linda.  (And for my birthday, my wife got me Yoshiyuki Sadamoto's Der Mond.)  Surprise, Viz released that book too!
