Meanwhile, back at the ranch...
Yep, I haven't blogged for about two or three days.
Monday Night I was at I Killed the Prom Queen and yesterday I was just disorganized.
By the by, Prom Queen was pretty damn good and I will be reviewing it as such for Fasterlouder.com.au
In fact, I spent this afternoon writing a rough review longhand. It did come out pretty long, and since it can only be 700 words I will have to trim it a bit. But so far it seems pretty good.
Sometime I need to get a haircut, since my hair is getting a bit unruly. I'm really tempted to buzz it all off.
My brain isn't working right now. I'm having one of those fuzzy mind-states I get from time to time. This computer's tendency to slow down to a crawl repeatedly isn't helping.
No matter.
Hmm. Other news:
Sunday night I was feeling bored, so I took the 257 up to Stratford and saw Corpse Bride.
I was planning to see Corpse Bride at one of the huge theatres in Leicester Square, but the sound in those places is always too trebly in any case. There is plenty of bass, of course, but for some reason a high end hiss seems to accompany the dialogue.
In any case, Corpse Bride was brilliant. There was just a little of the 'Oh God, It's a Musical' Cringe feeling that you get. It did take me a minute to convince myself that I wasn't watching a bizarre Christmas/Easter Morning animated special (those readers who refuse to watch TV will have no idea what I mean).
But visually Corpse Bride is amazing, the animation is seamless and the Danny Elfman music is brilliant. So, if you haven't seen it, go see it.
But see Serenity first.
I'm supposed to go see Van Lustbader in Notting Hill tonight.
Better get moving.
Over and Out.

Thanks for your condolences about my kitten, Jason. I appreciate it.
I'm afraid I haven't blogged in quite a few days, so I just saw your post.
Glad to see you're writing a review. Frankly, that's a better use of your skills than a blog, if you must choose.
It's too late, I'm pretty exhausted and I've got to be up
early, but I will say that I've been steadily working on editing my novel and I figure that's also a better use for my time than blogging.
Remember the comic strip, Calvin & Hobbes? It's my favorite. Calvin called Hobbes fuzz head, but of course he could get away with it because they were friends.
I thought I might say Happy Birthday Fuzz Head since you need a hair cut, but I think I'm much too sleepy and crossing the line now.
So, just Happy Birthday. Hope it's the best.
C.
