Updates for the week of 2010-07-25

  • Went to see Inception. Fantastic. Go see. I will, again, as daughter-emergency had me on my cell in the lobby for 10 MINUTES of Level Three. #
  • Sorcerer's Apprentice. Good fun. Five year old liked it — her favorite part was the kissing. #thatdoesntbotherme #WHYwouldyousayitbothersme #
  • Universal Mechanic (http://j.mp/a1RZyW) – Earmarking this for game hacks. #
  • Lazyman's "grilled" cheese sandwich for lunch. Thinking about the day I taught my nephew to make these things. Miss that kid. #
  • Alex Fleisig (http://j.mp/9MnM8p) – I highly suspect you'll find something in here you'll like. #
  • Preparing to jump through a series of flaming hoops. Circus audience appears to be late. Hrm. #
  • RT @glyneth: RT @cleolinda: RT @shutupjosh: Welcome to the Internet, where men are children, women are men, and children are the FBI. #
  • Sometimes I think if I didn't spend so much time searching for a regular job, I could be happier and better at my current irregular life. #
  • The Con is On (http://j.mp/aaufUq) – Every year I'm not there, I wish I were. #
  • Sequel to Avatar: The Last Airbender (http://j.mp/dqbMUG) – Aww00t, indeed. #
  • Watch Out for — EVERYTHING! (http://j.mp/9umxx9) – Pretty much every conversation with EVERYONE, once we mention the pregnancy. #
  • RT @maureenjohnson: @neilhimself I think there is a whole line of Gaiman inspired beachwear waiting to be made. Please call it Sandman. #
  • Libraries: the next bit Pop-Culture Wave. http://is.gd/dCedv #
  • Libraries – the next big pop culture wave: http://is.gd/dCedv #
  • RT @doctorow / @agpublic: I find that most movies made before around 1990 unfold *glacially*. [Yes. This.] #
  • MAN, I am a feedback junkie when it comes to my work. I'm not entirely sure that's a good thing. #
  • Oh, fuck you, Word10, you crash-without-backup-piece of crap. Fuck. You. #
  • What's that, Word10? You kept a recent backup? Why didn't you tell me? I didn't ASK? What… WHAT… Nevermind. It's fine. No, don't talk. #
  • Dear Dream Brain: Bacteria do not actually GO FERAL and ATTACK when you point a microscope at them. Signed, Your Conscious Self. #
  • Random Average: Wrapping up Diaspora, Shakespeare-Style http://bit.ly/cnGwma #
  • In Boulder with @daphneun to see Taming of the Shrew. Not sure how the show will be, but the pizza at Ado's was outstanding. #
  • So; Taming of the Shrew. Verdict: the pre-show pizza was really good. @DaphneUn and I have strong, parallel opinions on the production. #
  • In short, my opinion: doing Shakespeare, you have complete freedom in production choices; utter constraint in The Words. Blog post, I think. #
  • Also: Taming the Shrew would totally work rewritten as Dom/sub romance/seduction. Honestly, it might ONLY work that way. Has it been done? #
  • I'm still ranting about that Shakespeare production last night. http://bit.ly/a0rsAc #
  • Totally. How many do you need? #
