The boyfriend returned on Sunday and I just went crazy staying close to him for almost two days. He brought me some pretty gifties which I will probably take pictures of sometime in the next few days so that I can share. Sunday was also my ADIML so hopefully I will get that posted up in the next few days as well.

I've got a bunch of errands to run today. I'm going to the library to pick up the copy of Fullmetal Alchemist that I requested. I'm also going to drop off Big Love because I finished it. It was an interesting show. I really enjoyed it. Highly suggest it if you want something a little different. There is some form of nudity or sex in just about every episode, so a warning those who don't like that sort of thing so much. I'll also be dropping off some books and probably picking up some others. I have to go through my list and see what I want.

I finally finished Sense and Sensibility last week. It took me a bit and it's definitely not my favorite Austen, but I did enjoy the story. It's one of the few where I might suggest watching the Ang Lee movie over reading the book. My classic of the moment is A Tale of Two Cities. I read this when I was in grade nine, didn't really enjoy it because of the over analysis, so I'm giving it another try. So far, I am enjoying it. I like the way Dickens writes. I also finished a book recently called "The Book of Lost Things" It was a fantastic read. Kind of a more adult version of The Neverending Story with fractured fairytales all over it. I highly recommend.

Went to see Star Trek yesterday and enjoyed it. I'm not as enthusiastic as others I know, but I did like it. I would watch it again, just probably not pay money to go see it. Andrew saw it with me... it was his second viewing and he may go again. One of the things that started to bother me was the over use of lens flares. This is somewhat funny because that's one thing I love about the space scenes in Firefly.

I'm going to try and watch Transformers today and probably get started on FMA. I should probably finish Princess Tutu before that. I get so easily distracted from things.
