What I’m reading: John Lanchester’s Mr. Phillips
What I’m listening to: Sing You Sinners
What I’m watching: almost finished with the first season of The Wire
What I’m drinking: Balgownie Estate 2004 shiraz
Where I’m going: No trips planned this week, although we’re thinking of visiting our friends in Providence next weekend
What I’m happy about: that the heavy push to get my Jan/Feb combo issue done in time for Informex has left me a little more leeway in putting together the March issue and planning out April and May
What I’m sad about: that one of my best pals just deployed for “parts unknown” with his carrier group, and the dad of another of my pals just had surgery to remove some not-so-good cells from his pancreas
What I’m pondering: how awesome it is that, when I felt a twinge of nostalgia for my old college stomping grounds on Saturday, I was able to zoom in the satellite view on Google Maps, retrace my old travels, and remember that the Amherst Cinema is where I first watched Miller’s Crossing
just loaded up leopard….will report later….
The Varsity. Saw The Glass Key and The Third Man there, too.
Do you know how much slack I’ve given the Coen Bros., based on that one movie?
Yes.
Nowadays I have a soft spot for the closing monologue from The Man Who Wasn’t There. But I’m weird.
