Things have quieted down again, hence the lack of posts.
Went and saw Constantine on Monday because there was no Cinema 10. It’s definitely one of the better comic book adaptations I’ve seen — I would say it’s on par with X-Men and Spider-Man. In terms of other good movies to see, I finally caught Girl with a Pearl Earring on HBO last week, which was pretty interesting. I also recommend going to see Sideways if you get a chance.
Brendan showed up on Wednesday so it was necessary for us to get big beers and wings at Eben’s and then hit up Flip Night later on. I did learn a lesson afterwards: when cleaning up empties and the like, never decide to finish a bottle of whiskey because there’s “only” a few shots’ worth left in it.
Bryan and Eli showed up on Friday, so about ten of us spent the evening at Maxfield’s — good times. Eli arrived bearing gifts: a signed copy of Scott Loveland’s book Software Testing Techniques: Finding the Defects that Matter. Hopefully I’ll be able to clear out the rest of the books in my queue soon so I can read it.
Speaking of it… The queue currently has: Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, Seven Habits of Highly Effective People, The Catcher in the Rye (for class), Consolations of Philosophy, and Gaiman’s American Gods. Anyone have any recommendations for other good things to read?
