this wkd

so the poem isn't really technically as late as you may think.

today is my monday because i actually took a three day wkd! yay!

well, i'd been working flat out for the two week prior to that, including weekends because of some things that i couldn't stop at work.

and the next month, starting today and going through march 19, will be the same.

so, in between i decided to take a mini-break. besides which it was my birthday. besides which my mom came up for the wkd. besides which, my boss is out of town.

and now i'm learning matlab.

this weekend included a trip to the movie theater to see harry potter and the goblet of fire. it's been out for awhile and will come out on dvd soon, but i hadn't seen it and wanted to on the big screen, as they say.

so, one of the things i hate is the increasing genderization of the characters. it's there in the books, and there in the movies.

oh, those boys: they can't express their feelings because that would be, like, a completely girl thing to do!

but good thing they've got hermione around--she's a genuine girl! you can even tell more now because she wore a DRESS to a ball! and danced with a boy! and her hair was all curly and stuff!

and what was up with that scene with harry in the bath, and moaning myrtle trying to get a look at his penis? did that make anyone else as uncomfortable as it made me? i mean, the kid is fifteen, or something!

ok, back to GUI.

yea, in retrospect all of the dancing stuff was quite annoying. I guess I was sufficently distracted by ending and the special effects not to remember what happened in the middle of the movie. :)
