So, saw Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King last weekend. It was quite well done. I am sure I will like the extended version of it better. The battle scenes in Two Towers were better in my opinion. It was still a beatiful movie and completed the trilogy quite nicely. I was pleased and I think Peter Jackson should be proud as well. I recieved the extended special edition of The Two Towers for Christmas and watched that all the way through finally. It was really cool. i have yet to be disappointed in the extended movies. The things that are put back into the movie are very relevant to the story and the DVD versions seem to flow smoother.
We also went this past weekend and saw Paycheck. It is a movie based on a Philip K. Dick story, so of course we had to see it. It was actually pretty good. John Woo directed it and did a good job.
Genuis, a site that I was a member of for about a week until someone needlessly insulted me on the site (both Joel and I resigned from the site because of that and Joel was a founding member of the site) shut down. If anyone is wanting a website, Adam, the owner and boyfriend of the person who insulted me, is looking for someone to take over.
New Year's Eve is approaching. It is my first with Joel, although I have wanted to kiss him at the stroke of midnight for the last 4 years running. This year I finally get to do it. i want it to be special and memorable. I don't know how I am going to do that. We are going to a couple of parties this year. I have to make an appearance at Shad's party, but something tells me it is going to be quite a different crowd this time. Perhaps not, perhaps I just never really noticed until now. If it is still going on, we will go from there to Sean's party which is the party I will be looking forward to the most. We haven't been able to get a hold of Sean lately though, but we will see. I am excited.
I have been running into people I knew in high school left and right lately. Well, I guess with the holidays it is to be expected. Joel and I are going to have dinner with a before mentioned person we knew in high school. Well, Joel has known her for all his life practically. I didn't really know her all that well, but she's cool.
I am at work right now and Have been since 8 this morning. I am damn tired if you want to know. Not too much longer. Just a couple of hours more.
I read this mini-series comic called Midnight Nation by J. Michael Straczynski. It was bad-ass. The story, although short, was awesome. In fact, the only bad thing about the comic is that is is so short. The art was equally as good. I am going to start reading another series by the same writer called Rising Star. I am getting into comic books lately. Very, very cool. I am also trying to catch up on The Sandman comics. I only have books one and two and I haven't read them in a very long time. I am taking another look and then i will probably venture out and get the rest of it to read.
Last week I watched an episode of Unscrewed with Martin Sargent on Tech TV and saw Wil Wheaton on it. He was talking about his website on the show. It sounded really cool, so I went there, and to my surprise it is an awesome blog-style website. It looks good and the writing on it is superb. It is pretty cool, especially if you were a fan of Star Trek or Wil himself and want to know what is going on in his life. I liked it. His website is ultimately what Joel and I want Nodal-Point to be on day.Well, on that note, I bid you good day.
