my socks off. no, seriously, here I am, sockless: http://www.flickr.com/photos/vrika/3302229579

I havent read the comic in a LONG time, so frankly had forgotten much of the story. I read Watchmen, V for Vendetta, and other graphic novels, comic book series in a far different part of my life.

I know folks havent had a chance to see it, so I wont spoil it, its under the cut here...
hidden under da cut... )

Anyway, [livejournal.com profile] byronium and I have to go see it again, I think...

The rest of the weekend has been really great. Went to Chez Maman for dinner, was chastized by the waiter for not having been in too long, and then B and I went to a party on Friday which was fun!

 Woke up too early on saturday to head over to the Herbst Theatre to see Kronos Quartet with rhiannonstone, byronium, basmati, jong, and h. One of their pieces made me think of Cleo until I almost cried. (No, not kidding. didnt want to weep like an idiot in front of people so managed to keep it under control... but I still miss her and Odey so much I get weepy thinking about it. like now.) 

Lunch at Max's, where I'd never eaten before. Wacky conversations (tho at the middle, it started getting hard to hear much of them, and I got tired of asking folks to repeat themselves.)

Headed over to Park Place while I worked a bit, and watched everyone else cook. B started up the cinnamon rolls, and roasted asparagus, salmon, swordfish, garlic bread and chicken. He was HICKORY SMOKED, I tell ya! Everyone else pitched in to make salad, the garlic bread, and other foods...

Dinner was fun, a couple of bottles of wine, good food, and we were off to the Herbst Theatre again to see the Bad Plus! w00t! So OSSM, including the singer who did versions of songs that blew me away. (More later...) 

Today was brunch, the bell and I made Boozy Bitter Chocolate Truffles
and a salmon and cheese scramble, and B finished the cinnamon rolls and we went to the watchmen. Came home after that to watch BSG (WHAT THE FRAK? I think I'll just keep saying that 'til its over.). Worked a little more, talked to both steam and  boi blu on line briefly (yay!) and now...

to bed.

(I'm peopled out. While I ENJOYED the weekend, I wish I'd planned a little bit better when I realized the weather was good and gone on a long motorcycle ride. Instead, next weekend, we're going SKIING! YAY! SKI! W00T!!!!) and two weeks later, up to Portland for 5 days. powells books, here I come!
