Happy Towel Day to the Douglas Adams fans on my f'list, and for the Pratchett fans, Happy Glorious 25th of May.

Indiana Jones is tonight! So excited. A big group of us (I think my friend who organized the whole thing said 15 people) are going to the Arclight to see Indy tonight, at a midnight showing.
