(no subject)

It's been too long since I posted anything, so I ought to vaguely catch up on current events. Everyone else is writing about The War now, but I think I will refrain from undertaking an essay on it. It's a complex issue about which I have unresolved views, and I'm not going to use this space as a pulpit. However, you should read what some other people had to say about war. Although most of them are of an anti-war bent, almost all of them are thought-provoking.

For tpau's birthday we went and saw Shanghai Knights and had dinner with a bunch of friends. It's a very funny movie, and was pretty much exactly what I expected.

A general battery of tests from my doctor reveals that I am... fine. In fact, I'm pretty sickeningly normal. Although I might possibly have elevated calcium levels, pending a repeated blood test. I've been informed that this is one of the most common tests to be "completely wrong", which is at once comforting and worrisome.

Last weekend we went to the Crossroads Faire SCA event, which was a fairly good time. I felt like I spent a lot of it running back and forth volunteering and trying not to miss anything (particularly hard since this was a collection of mini-events that had somewhat of a tendency to compete for attention). The party afterwards at richenza's house was lots of fun as well.

The play is coming up quite soon now, and I'd probably be worried if I had more to do in it. I received directorial praise for standing around looking irritated. If only I'd known that was the secret to great acting.

The past few nights I've been having an odd sort of recurring dream. The details of where I am and what I'm doing are always wildly different, but it seems to consistently involve some critical element (such as subliminal messages) based on a song that I don't like. The only reason I remember the dream at all is because I have the song stuck in my head for the rest of the day. Weird. And very annoying.
