Wizard Needs Hug Badly
Been a decent couple of days also known colloquially as a week-end.
Had an interview on Friday for a temp data entry job at viagogo. Seems like a decent place and I feel damn good about the talk I had with the folks there.
That evening brought the latest Harry Potter flick with my aunt and uncle, who had been unable to make it to my birthday dinner, so it was awesome to see them. As for the movie, it was strange for a number of reasons. There were a good number of people in the crowd I had not seen in a few years- all of whom didn't recognize me. Hardly surprising or insulting, considering the amount of time it's been, coupled with the fact that I looked like a Samoan caveman in my youth. Anyhow, the movie was pretty good. Some strange moments, including a ridiculous make-out sequence and a somewhat contrived dancing bit. The movie wins major points in my book, however, for using a Nick Cave song in the aforementioned dance sequence.
Went shopping in the city Saturday. Picked up an amazing pair of olive-colored slacks with orange flannel lining. It's like walking around in super-comfortable pajamas all the time. Also picked up a couple nice button-downs and some boxer briefs which are... interesting to get used to, to say the least.
And Sunday was pure mellow- lichifruit and sleepfighter came over and we watched Diebuster, which, while it didn't quite live up to the original, still looked amazing and had its own moments of badass. We moved on to the first arc of Bakemonogatari after that- they both seemed to enjoy it mainly for the amazing visuals. It'll always have a special place in my heart for many more reasons than that, but I'm happy if they enjoy it on any level. When they headed out, I picked up a pizza and invited Zander over to catch up on The Walking Dead, which continues to be amazing on every level- even the music is growing its beard as the season progresses. I'm excited, to say the least, to see what they do with a longer season next year. And then, I capped the evening off by my lonesome with the season finale of The Venture Bros. Words cannot describe the awesome contained within this hourlong episode. I should record the reactions people have when I show it to them- that might.
Thanksgiving in just a few days- looking to be our smallest gathering in a number of years, with only 15 people in attendance. :U
