since i got home from my round-the-world trip, i've been a lot fitter than i've ever been in my life and i don't want to loose this fitness. so in an effort to stay in shape, i cycle into work (for the 2 weeks that i will be working). this morning i wasn't really feeling the greatest, tired, my stomach is being a bit wierd... and i decided to take it easy cycling in.
hah.
i got as far as the corner onto the back road (which is about 200m from my house) and i was speeding; cycling as fast as i could along the smooth stretch of cycle-path. so much for taking it easy. i pushed myself up all the hills and raced down all the slopes. oh well. it was fun, and the rain held off.
the weekend was good. i went to a house party with lordkilljoy on saturday night. he'd just come down, after a day of work and then a 3 hour car journey. i was well impressed with the fact that at 4am he was still up for drinking cocktails. but the night was good - they sell stone's ginger wine in ireland, so that's what i was drinking - mixed with sprite. yummy.
we're thinking of going to the cinema tonight. maybe to see wanted. lordkilljoy's seen it already, and there are about 5 films that i want to go see.
i got back into my novel a tiny bit on saturday (??). i realized that i have so much that needs re-writing, or just writing for the first time. my scenes don't blend so well and i have to introduce some characters in a better way that i have done. so at least i know what i need to do now, i shouldn't be procrastinating so badly any more.
not much else news - i should get some work done...
ooh - dave's campaign ended last night. the game was good, but the ending was a bit easy and not at all what we expected.
Wanted is rubbish. It has one or two good tricks and one or two good jokes and that is about it. I also heard Hancock wasn't up to much but that Kung Fu Panda was fun.
ReplyDeletep.s. Would someone please give Jolie a frickin' sammich!
were you kidding when you said wanted was rubbish? it's the coolest film i've seen since equlibrium - not at all like equilibrium, but cool in a similar way. i can't believe you didn't like it.
ReplyDeleteNo actually. There were some redeemable features, slapping his sack-of-shit friend in teh face with a keyboard (there are days I wish I could do that to some people around here), but some things, like the Loom of Doom, the obvious twist, Morgan Freeman's character, etc were just abominable.
ReplyDeleteEquilibrium was awesome and I am saddened that you put them in the same league.
