Duuuude, the Colors...
Jan. 11th, 2008 11:39 pmI think all the cold remedies I took this morning all started working finally. Like, around 7pm. If I wasn't so sick I could be having a really good time right now. My feet are numb, my fingers are all tingly, I can't feel the chair under my butt.
Watched Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End last night. It was okay. Nice dark little love story. It was kind of weird seeing Chow Yun Fat in a slightly bad-guy role. Chthulu the Chthouch Potato kinda freaked out when he saw what had become of the Kraken. I didn't know what it was I was looking at til it was too late & I didn't have a chance to cover his eyes. I was honestly hoping for more... especially after they told the story of Calypso & Davy Jones. I was hoping for some serious eye candy there & all I got was crabs & little kids. Blegh. I did like the pirate song at the beginning of the movie. Very hair-raising & creepy. I like Captain Barbossa far more than Jack Sparrow, pretty much through all three movies - I was excited at the end of the last movie when I saw Tia Dolma had brought Barbossa back from the dead.
I've seen a green flash at sunrise before. It's easier to do here than many other places. Er, it used to be easier, before we had so much smog. Anywhere you can get higher than the horizon & the horizon is relatively flat & there is not a lot of particulate matter or moisture in the air between you & the point of sunrise/set is a ripe area for seeing green flashes. Never saw one out at the beaches in California, but probably more because I wasn't looking at the sunsets.
Sometimes I wish I wasn't so freakin' practical. Sat down, did the math & dropped the drumming class because honestly, gas is too expensive & it's going to go up in price again all through spring.
