Work. Is. Hell.

I haven't been posting very much lately, and the reason is work's been sucking more energy from me than Christopher Walken's reverse power plant in Batman Returns (the nerds will get the reference).

Quickie update -

* Movies I've seen consist of Harry Potter, The Simpsons Movie and Transformers. With HP they took my least favourite of the books and made it my favourite of the movies; The Simpsons Movie was hilarious, and The Transformers had its moments, but overall I found it pretty boring (I know, how could I dislike a movie that had both Transformers AND a Smashing Pumpkins song??).

* If you've read Ben's blog, then you know I've signed up for cable. What can I say, it was a moment of weakness! And given that I generally don't leave the house, I think this is a wise investment. Not to mention how well-informed we'll be with all the news channels for when the rapture comes!

*I was planning on holding out and reading Carol's copy, but I caved and bought my own edition of Harry Potter & The Deathly Hallows. Finished reading it just the other night; there were quite a few moments where I exclaimed out loud and got watery-eyed. Over all, a good read, even if all the chapters of the kids camping in the woods drag on and on and on.

*My Superman DVDs arrived. The show's enjoyable, but a bit dry. I'm hoping it picks up a bit (though the guest stint by the Flash was great!). Oh, and I caved and bought Greg the Bunny, which turned out to be a dumb move, seeing as I'll be able to watch it on cable soon. But hey, at least now I own it for posterity!

*Apparently Dad and Hannah are working at the same bank now. Run, Hannah! Run while you still can! (I'm sure Dad will agree with me on this one).

*Finally, seeing as every time I say I'm considering buying something on my blog I end up getting it, I'm announcing here and now that I intend to buy a mega-mansion. Preferably a castle. That floats. In the clouds.

And I'm spent.
