book day

Short entry today, because I literally spent all morning reading. I really wanted to add a book to my 2004 reading list, so I read Robin Cook - Contagion (which I read a few years ago, but forgot enough to have it be exciting again)

So, I read and read and read, and that's about it.

Oh, and we saw Ocean's 12. I loved it. It was so seventies-polyester. The cinematography made up for what the story lacked. Plus, the interaction between characters was a hoot.

The only downside really was that the entire movie was based on a storyline that didn't fit the characters. But, since the first story was so unbelievable, I can forgive the writers. I won't put any spoilers here though.

More disconcerting was the fact that one of the theater workers periodically walked through the theater with her light-saber, looking for people videotaping. Are we really so impatient nowadays that we can't wait a few months for the dvd?

When we get settled in jan or Feb, I think I'm going to make a quilt for Project Linus in response to Grrl's request

Project Linus collects handmade blankets and distributes them to sick kids all over the country. On their site there are patterns and ideas for making a blanket, from elaborate to simple (including a quick fleece blanket that even the least crafty person could manage).
