This reminds me of Christmas at my parents when my dad starts singing. Watch for Homestar's reaction to Strong Mad saying "That guy was really stupid" or whatever the line is.
http://homestarrunner.com/xmas.html In case you guys are wondering, the reason I've been writing so infrequently is because I've basically been cloistered within my book. Also, everyone stop asking me when you can read it. I'm flattered, but it's still going to be at least another month. So be patient. :)
I had a quiet Christmas, New Years, and birthday (Gah! I'm twenty-freaking-two, what the hell?), but that's sort of what a wanted. I've been really lucky, and been able to see a whole bunch of people this week, which is surprising considering how much I've been working on the book.
This may sound totally random, but Peter and I went to the IMA today and saw their new contemporary addition. They have these two rooms that were commissioned by this Brazilian artist. You take off your shoes and chill in them. It's really relaxing and cool because you get to be in this weird room with other random people, but it's one of those universally cool moments for everybody. Go there. Now.
I also saw Brokeback Mountain tonight, which answered my questions about what sheep herders really do on those cool nights. Excellent film. I never would have thought of Heath Ledger as an actor, but he does a really good job in this film. Also, if you're interested in seeing Anne Hathaway's useless tits, they're pretty interesting as well. Meh.
I came up with a new word tonight with Peter's help. He was telling me about a French-Canadian delicacy called poutine. It's...ugh...French fries with gravy and cheese. Sounds British. Anyway, I decided that in the Dentionary, it goes like this:
Poutine (pu-teen) n. The schedule of a highly fiberous person.
