Birthday

Grading done. Birthday yesterday. Picnic today!

The girl bought me a really nice Italian Red at Solo Vino, a St. Paul vineria. Looking online, I see:

Oracolo 2000
Az. Agr. Inama
IGT Veneto Rosso
Codice Prodotto: INORACOLO00R

Il vino, di colore fittissimo, rosso cupo. Naso esuberante di piccole bacche scure, ciliege passite e vaniglia. Al palato molto potente, di grande maturità fenolica, morbido e rotondo, fruttato senza impedimenti acidi e tannici. Lunghissimo il finale.

Sounds tasty.

Also saw Star Wars. I liked it much more than the other two cause the action was great. Still not a good movie because there's no emotional content worth having. I had thought it was just bad acting, but then I realized that Samuel L. Jackson /also/ had no emotional content. I wonder if it's because the actors have no 'space.' They have to fit perfectly into this digitized world. Well, and Darth Vader's actor is just lousy.

And ate sushi.

remind me to buy you a birthday drink next weekend. Or something.

(sigh. there should be cheekiness there somewhere, but I'm tired, and the cheekiness quotient is low right now. I am, however, triumphant in that I have returned from the library haul w/articles articles articles to work on. so- *imagine your fav cheeky comment here*).

Are you in town next week or am I dreaming?

1st weekend of June. I figured I'd put out some emails, make some calls this weekend/early next week & plan some plans. Still up for some chilltime?

Acting can only take you so far when the writing and the directing stink. I think Ewan McGregor did the best job of it. Then again, he got all the (intentional) laughs.
